Here’s Why Love Island’s Kaylor & Aaron Broke Up
Yes, she's seen the Casa Amor episodes now.
Kaylor Martin and Aaron Evans coupled up on Day 1 of Love Island Season 6. The duo had a tumultuous run on the reality show — largely due to Aaron’s connection with Daniela Ortiz-Rivera in Casa Amor — but they made it through the drama in Fiji. Though they were eliminated before the finale, they ended the show together and seemed happy with the outcome. That is, until Kaylor watched what really happened during Aaron’s time in Casa Amor.
At the Aug. 19 reunion, Aaron admitted he lied to Kaylor about Casa, detailing what he did with Daniela there — all of which was news to Kaylor who says he had never told her what happened. In response to his confession, Kaylor said, “I cannot believe I wasted my entire f*cking summer on you, Aaron. I don’t want anything to do with you. I never want to speak to you again.”
The two confirmed they were together when they left the villa but then Kaylor watched what happened in Casa Amor when she went back home. They broke up a week after they recorded the July 31 episode of the BFFs podcast (where Aaron says Kaylor “shat” all over him), though they shared that they spent time together when they first arrived in New York for the reunion.
Even before the reunion aired, Kaylor had begun dropping hints that she ended things with Aaron after filming. During a cast interview at the 92NY on Aug. 16, Kaylor confirmed she was no longer in a relationship. “I’m 22 years old, I'm going to go through heartbreak, falling in love — all of it,” she told the crowd. “I know we all have maybe been there once or twice, and I’m glad I have been through it and I’m learning from this situation. And I'm single!”
Fans also caught Kaylor explicitly stating that she and Aaron are not together in a TikTok from a couple days before that event.
The breakup is relatively fresh, as Kaylor and Aaron were still trying to make things work in several podcast appearances after the show.
During their BFFs episode, Kaylor and Aaron discussed the current status of their relationship after Kaylor had caught up on the important episodes. “I finally watched [Casa Amor],” Kaylor said.
According to Kaylor, she watched the episodes just before recording the podcast, so it was all “very new and fresh.” But she already had strong feelings about what she saw. “My perspective definitely has changed since whenever I was in the villa to now,” she said.
Apparently, the “little things” were the hardest for her to see, “like the stomach kisses in the morning and [him preparing Daniela] breakfast.” Kaylor added, “Also, I saw Aaron break things off with Daniela and go in to lean in for a kiss.”
She continued, “All of those things have changed my perspective, and I’m hurting for that Kaylor on the screen because when you’re there you’re ... kind of in a bubble.” Kaylor added that her friends had *thoughts* on the Aaron situation. “[They’re] like, ‘Kaylor, what the f*ck? You didn’t stick up for yourself. You weren’t there for you,’” she said. “I relate to them because I feel like most of all I wasn’t there for myself. It definitely hurt, and I definitely feel differently [than] I did in the villa about everything.”
When the podcast hosts asked Aaron how he planned to win over Kaylor again, he seemed unsure. “We just need to figure out what me and Kaylor want to do first. Because moving forward, obviously, I want to move to America and I want to make it work,” he said.
One host argued that Kaylor would be “so dumb” to give Aaron a second chance in the real world. Kaylor seemingly agreed. “See and that’s what my friends are saying,” she said. “They’re like, ‘He f*cked you over once. He f*cked you over twice. He might as well run you over by a f*cking Mack Truck and sh*t on your head.’”
Now that Kaylor has seen the full picture of what really went down at Casa Amor, she’s officially back in her single era.
