Love Island USA Reunion: Are Melanie, Sincere Still Dating? They Explain

Kyra Green & Cashel Barnett: Split

The delivered one of the U.S. version’s most unexpected couplings, with Kyra choosing to leave the show during the inaugural season to see if she still had a shot with Cashel after sending him home…only to find out he’d already returned. But, unfortunately, the musically inclined couple split in October 2019.

By the end of November, they had reconciled. However, Kyra and Cashel ended their relationship for good in February 2020.

“We had a good go,” he said on the #NoFilter podcast. “I think we’re just in different places in our lives…I think she blocked my number, to be honest.”

Kyra went on to appear on other shows including Match Me If You Can in 2021, The Challenge: USA in 2022 (which Cashel also competed on) and Love Island Games in 2023. But she ended up finding her match off-camera with dental student and former basektball player Tal Sahar in 2024.

In May 2025, Cashel was jailed in Utah on charges of domestic violence and assault, according to online records. The following month, new charges of assault and domestic violence were filed against him.

According to NBC News, Cashel denied the allegations, with his attorney Andrew K. Deesing telling the outlet, “My client and his family are enduring an incredibly difficult time, and we hope that his privacy will be respected as we work diligently to defend his name and reputation. Obviously, we’re in the very early stages of this and don’t have any further comment at this time.”
