Chelsea Orcutt and Thomas Gipson Are Still Going Strong
The California natives arrived on the island with their share of trust issues. While Chelsea was irked by Thomas’ flirtatious side, the latter felt that nothing he’d do would prove his loyalty to Chelsea. So, when the duo came to the island, they faced several ups and downs that tested the strength of their relationship. While Thomas had cozied with Sophia Perez, Chelsea had pursued a connection with Blake Eyres. However, despite the blossoming romance that Chelsea and Thomas had begun, the duo ultimately decided to walk away from the island together.
Since then, the couple has continued to grow strong together. In 2021, Chelsea went LIVE on her Instagram account and clarified that she and Thomas were under a lot of pressure to deliver on different counts. Moreover, the star also communicated that reality shows could construe a different image in order to make it interesting for the viewers. “We had producers in our ears and there’s a lot of pressure and there’s alcohol. We just want to have fun and it’s coming off so negatively and I really didn’t expect that to happen,” she said. On the professional level, Chelsea and Thomas have continued to grow as actors. Together, the two are parents to an adorable furry baby named Bernardio!
Since his exit from the show, Thomas has continued his successful streak as an artist and starred in, ‘Burning Little Lies,’ ‘Hider in My House,’ ‘Saving Savanna,’ and ‘Shiter.’ In addition to being the male lead in the Lifetime movie, ‘What Lies Behind The Walls,’ he is also co-producing, ‘What Brings Us Together.’ Similarly, Chelsea has also grown as a creator and an actor.

Erica Washington and Kendal Kirkland Are Not Together Anymore
Arriving on the island with self-doubt, Erica felt that she and Kendal should separate since she did not bring enough to the table. Throughout the season, Erica and Kendal continued to grow further apart. While Erica became her own woman, Kendal became involved romantically with other singles. Eventually, Erica got over Kendal, and the duo left the island separately. Kendal decided to walk away from the island with Alexcys Homan. However, the reunion episode uncovered that Alexcys was just as affected as Erica by Kendal’s whim.
Ultimately, Kendal walked from the show alone. After the season ended, Kendal established his website Kendal Kirkland where fans can purchase a fitness e-book titled, ‘The Kirkland Approach.’ Besides this, Kendal also has a YouTube channel. While the star is no longer actively acting, he still models for different brands. On the other hand, Erica has since begun a private life and now likes to keep her personal and professional affairs concealed from the media spotlight.

Corey Sobczyk and Erin Smith had come onto the show because they felt they were incompatible and not good enough for each other. Naturally, throughout their time on the show, the former football player and behavioral therapist had their share of ups and down. Nevertheless, the on-and-off-again couple ultimately walked away from the show hand in hand. However, things changed in their relationship, and the reunion episode laid their issues bare. Ultimately, Erin decided she did not want to be with Corey because he could not communicate and be vulnerable with her.
However, even then, the duo managed to navigate their issues and got back together. Finally, in March 2022, Erin revealed on the ‘It’s Tempting’ podcast that she and Corey broke up in July 2021.
