Season 3 of CBS' Love Island USA culminated with the surprise couple of Korey Gandy and Olivia Kaiser winning the $100,000 prize despite remaining as friends for a large portion of the competition. It was obvious the pair had a contrived romance meant for TV only, which is why their split a few months after the show concluded came as unsurprising. Hopefully, the Love Island USA season 5 cast will have more meaningful relationships.
Now that nearly two years has transpired since Love Island USA season 3 ended and there is renewed interest due to Love Island USA season 5, there is curiosity surrounding what Korey, Olivia, Kyra, Will, Bailey, Jeremy, Alanna, and Charlie are doing with their personal and professional lives in 2023.
Korey Gandy - Entrepreneur, Influencer
Eventual Season 3 winner Korey Gandy has a brutal time in the villa before finishing strong with his friend-turned-romance Olivia Kaiser. Korey was linked to Kyra, Trina, Cashay, Florita, and Leslie before finally overcoming his heartbreak and settling down with Olivia to make a first-place finish. Since competing for love on the hit reality dating show, Korey has remained in his Virginia Beach hometown where he continues to increase his public presence as a social media influencer. By all accounts, he's currently single.
In addition to starting his own Only Fans account and trademarking his signature slogan "What the freak!" into a merchandising line, Korey continues to update his followers via Instagram, where he has roughly 250K followers to date. He also has a Cameo account.
Olivia Kaiser - Model, Licensed Cosmologist
Anchorage, Alaska native Olivia Kaiser spent much of her time in the villa in a platonic friendship with Javonna Vega. When things didn't work out, it became obvious Olivia used Korey at the last minute to make it to the finals, which she did to the tune of a $50,000 first-place finish. Nowadays, Olivia lives in the much warmer Scottsdale, Arizona, where she works as a professional model, and licensed cosmologist specializing in PMU.
As a health and beauty expert, Olivia has launched her skincare service entitled LivBeautifullyAz, which focuses on microblading, lip blush, eyeliner touch-ups, color boosting, and more. When she isn't promoting her brand to her 300K Instagram followers, Olivia continues to work as a model represented by Debonair Management Group. She also appeared on The Challenge: USA and, unlike many of her Love Island USA contestants, actually made it to the finals.
Kyra Lizama - Model
For much of season 3, Hawaiian native Kyra Lizama showed nothing but love, loyalty, and respect for her Day 2 match Will Moncada. While it was angering that Kyra forgave Will too easily following his temptation, the two never wavered from each other and ultimately earned a deserving second-place finish. Alas, like all season 3 couples, the two ended their romance shortly after departing the villa. However, Will and Kyra have since recoupled and share shepherd/husky mix together. They are the only Love Island USA couple still together.
Will Moncada - Model, Content Creator
Will Moncada showed immediate charm upon entering the villa on Day 1 and after a brief Casa Amor flirtation, wisely returned to his beloved Kyra to finish as worthy runners-up. While the two split a few months after the popular reality dating show ended, Will and Kyra reunited in June 2022 (per US Magazine).
When Will isn't traveling the globe with Kyra, he calls Los Angeles his home and place of work, where he has several creative pursuits. Will offers personalized shoutout videos and personalized Zoom conferences to talk with fans about everything from veganism, fitness routines, diet plans, and the like. In the meantime, Will works as a professional model and promotes eco-sustainability in places like Colombia.
Bailey Marshall - Model, Influencer
Despite entering the villa on Day 26, Portland, Oregon native Bailey Marshall managed to strike a genuine bond with Jeremy Hershberg and end up in a respectable third place. Alas, the two ended their romance a few short weeks later. While Bailey has since returned to Portland, she no longer works as a marketing intern and has parlayed her TV presence into a modeling career and to become a social media influencer.
Aside from working with such fashion brands as Princess Polly, Bailey stays engaged with fans in 2022 by remaining active on Instagram and TikTok. Although she spent far less time than any finalist other than Alana Paolucci, Bailey has made the most of her time on the guilty-pleasure dating show.
Jeremy Hershberg - Entrepreneur, Content Creator, Fitness Model
Because New Yorker Jeremy Hershberg was linked to Trina, Aimee, Florita, and Genevieve before ultimately finding a match in Bailey, he was considered the resident playboy himbo of season 3. Fair or not, Jeremy has moved on from Bailey by focusing on her career as an entrepreneur, content creator, and professional fitness model in 2023. By all accounts, he still resides in The Big Apple and is currently single. After appearing in a nude Barstool Sports commercial in January 2022, Jeremy has focused his attention on his love of movies and created @Cinemaphoric, a digital space featuring stills and clips of favorite films.
Alana Paolucci - Professional Model
Although she entered the villa on Day 26, New Yorker Alana Paolucci stood out for going after Charlie Lynch without apology even when he was in a committed relationship with Cashay. When Charlie ultimately chose Alana over Cashay, the two mustered just enough fan votes to finish in fourth place. While Alana and Charlie didn't last very long after the show ended, she's continued to put her best foot forward by continuing her professional modeling career and appearing in an Elle photo shoot.
According to her Instagram bio, Alana currently resides in Los Angeles and works as a professional model represented by Natural Models LA and Nous Models. Active on TikTok and Cameo as well, Alana has remained engaged with Love Island fans despite enjoying a relatively short stint on the hit reality dating show. She is in a relationship with producer Sebastian Sartor.
Charlie Lynch - Fitness Model, Entrepreneur
As for the last finalist Charlie Lynch, the Houston native experienced quite a bit of backlash following the Cashay debacle, only to sever ties with Alana not too long after leaving the villa. Moving back and forth between San Diego and his native Houston, Charlie is a fitness model and entrepreneur.
Whether promoting Lube Life or BlueChew products, Charlie is clearly making professional moves by branching out from his fitness modeling and moving into fashion. The model and influencer remains unsurprisingly single- if season 3 of Love Island USA taught fans anything, it relayed that hard for contestants to keep the company they left the island with.
