"Love Island" has started its fifth season. What has become of the previous winning pairs?

After the opening show on March 8th, the fifth season of "Love Island – Hot Flirts and True Love" goes on air Monday to Friday and Sunday at 10:15 pm on RTLzwei. This time the participants get to know each other for three weeks in a villa on Tenerife. There they have to come together to form couples. In the end, 50,000 euros await the winning couple. So far, four winning couples have emerged from the format. But did the flirtation in front of the TV camera turn into a real relationship?

Elena Miras and Jan Sokolowsky

The first season "Love Island" was broadcast from September to October 2017. In the end, Elena Miras (28) from Zurich and Jan Sokolowsky (31) from Cologne made the race for the audience's favor. Just three days after the final, the two separated. Mike Heiter (28) and Chethrin Schulze (28), they took third place, also parted ways shortly after the show. Then it became known that Miras and Heiter are in a relationship. The relationship lasted until September 2020. The former couple have a daughter who was born in August 2018. Both reality show participants are now happily taken again. Sokolowsky, on the other hand, took part in the nude dating show "Adam sucht Eva" in 2018, but nothing is known about his current relationship status.

Tracy Candela and Marcellino "Lino" Kremers

Tracy Candela and Marcellino Kremers were considered the dream couple of the second "Love Island" season. Just a few days after the final, the personal trainer and the Koblenz native, who was a law student at the time, separated again in October 2018. While Tracy Candela was quiet, Kremers tried again unsuccessfully his TV dating luck with "Match! Celebrities on Dating Course" and has since concentrated on his TV jobs: Kremers was most recently in the RTL two trash show "Kampf der Realitystars" and can be seen at "Sat.1 Promiboxen". There he also announced his new love affair: He has been in a relationship with Dijana Cvijetic (27) since 2020. The couple met at "Kampf der Realitystars". Cvijetic also took part in "Love Island", but one year after Kremers.

Vivien Michalla and Sidney Wolf

In the third season, Sidney Wolf and Vivien Michalla convinced as a couple – but it remained a short TV romance. Wolf announced the separation in his Instagram story. He had previously announced the sad news via livestream. "The time at 'Love Island' was wonderful and you developed feelings for each other there, which have evaporated more and more in everyday life," he said, explaining the end of love. "It didn't feel real and good to me anymore and that's why I broke up with Vivi yesterday," said the "Love Island" winner. In June 2020, Wolf confirmed that he was taken again. Michalla presented a photo with her new partner on Instagram at the turn of the year 2021. For the runner-up Samira Berkane (23) and Yasin Cilingir (29), things are going even better, the two became parents for the first time in December 2020 and married in early February 2021.

Melina Hoch and Tim Kühnel

Their love on TV was up and down: Ultimately, Melina Hoch (23) and Tim Kühnel (23) won the fourth season of the dome format, which they left as a couple at the end of September 2020. In December of the same year, the two of them tearfully announced their breakup in an Instagram video. "There were just a few differences that we haven't discovered in the last few weeks, but that just got a little stronger that we didn't expect at the beginning. That's why we decided that we will split up," said Kühnel in this. Love updates are known neither from the student nor the Cologne woman. From the fourth season, the couple in second place also seem to have more luck in love: Anna Iffländer (24) and Marc Zimmermann (25) have been considered a dream couple since the beginning of the fourth season and still share snapshots in love on Instagram to this day.
