Love Island Season 8 current couple predictions — Part 1

I asked regardless of who wins, are these current connections actually going to remain a couple and lock in by the end?

Obviously, we do not know who is going to win. There are still more bombshells, Casa, recouplings, public votes, and all kinds of mess that can happen. So this is not me saying “this is the winner.” This is me looking at the current connections and asking: by the end of their storyline, whether they leave together, get dumped, or make it far, are they going to actually remain a couple and lock in?

I also pulled for #Brinity and Zach and Kayda, but forgot to write it down. However I will say things did not look good for either couple either. My next reading will have all the other couples.

Melanie and Sincere

Cards pulled: Six of Cups, Four of Pentacles, Nine of Wands Prediction: No, they will not fully lock in romantically. But yes, I do think they will remain close.

For Melanie and Sincere, the answer is no. I do not think they are going to end up as a solid romantic couple. However, I definitely do think they will remain friends or at least remain close in some way, because the Six of Cups being here tells me that by the time this ends, they are going to feel like they have known each other way longer than they actually have.

The Six of Cups is usually what people associate with childhood friends, nostalgia, people you have years of memories with, or someone you will always hold a candle for. Obviously, Melanie and Sincere did not know each other like that before this experience, but it makes sense in the context of Love Island. You are spending all day, every day with someone. You are sleeping in the same room, going through emotional highs and lows, dealing with jealousy, recouplings, challenges, and public pressure. That can make a week feel like six months.

So I do think they are going to leave this connection feeling like, “We made a lot of memories. I will never forget you. I will always care about you.” But I do not think that automatically means romance.

The issue is the Four of Pentacles and the Nine of Wands. The Four of Pentacles is possessiveness, but it is also not wanting to fully open up. In a romantic context, I read that as someone holding tightly to their emotions, their heart, and the things that matter to them. It is like, “Once I really lock in, I’m locked in, and I do not know if you are consistent enough for me to trust you with that.”

Then the Nine of Wands is the wounded warrior. That is someone who has been through things, has walls up, and is defensive because they are trying to protect themselves from being hurt again. That honestly matches what we have already seen from Melanie so far. She has talked about being done dirty, being cheated on, and not wanting to fall for the same thing again.

So I feel like the dynamic is: Melanie is possessive over Sincere, but she does not fully trust Sincere. And honestly, this could end up going both ways. Sincere may also become possessive over Melanie, but not fully trust her either.

That is the problem. There is closeness here. There is emotional nostalgia here. There is genuine care here. But there are also walls, fear, defensiveness, possessiveness, and a lack of emotional openness.

Melanie and Corbin

Cards pulled: Two of Pentacles, Page of Swords, Ace of Cups Prediction: No, not officially. But there is potential for something to be explored later.

For Melanie and Corbin, I also do not think they are going to end up together, at least not in a clear official way on the show. But I do think there is potential there. If there is any connection where I would say, “Maybe outside of the villa, they could explore something,” it would be this one.

The Two of Pentacles tells me that both of them are going to be juggling. I genuinely think this season, or at least this part of the season, they are both going to have multiple options. Corbin has been between Melanie and Kenzie, and Melanie has been between Corbin and Sincere. Obviously, more people are going to come in, but I think the point is that they are both in these weird triangles where they like each other, but there are other connections involved.

The Two of Pentacles is very Love Island. It is literally, “I have multiple connections. I like you, but I also like them. I am trying to see where my head is at.” So I do not think they are going to have the cleanest path.

But the Page of Swords is interesting because that tells me there is genuine curiosity. We may not see them verbally express how much they are actually checking for each other. The Page of Swords is lurking energy. It is “you do not even know I am looking at you, but I am looking at you.” It is peeping from the side. It is getting information, observing someone, and studying them without always directly saying how interested you are.

I feel like this is Corbin, but I also think it could be Melanie too. I just see Corbin in my mind’s eye peeping Melanie. And he literally said that in the last episode. He said, “I be peeping you.” So that matches the Page of Swords perfectly.

Then the Ace of Cups tells me there is openness. There is potential for feelings. There is a new emotional beginning. Somebody could catch feelings, or both of them could develop a genuine soft spot for each other. But I did not see cards that screamed committed relationship, at least not on the show.

So my prediction is no, Melanie and Corbin do not end as an official locked-in couple. But I do think the feelings or curiosity could still be there by the time this is over. It may be one of those things where after Sincere and the other connections do not work out, they look at each other like, “Okay, maybe we should have explored this more.”

Corbin and Kenzie

Cards pulled: Three of Swords reversed, Seven of Pentacles reversed, Queen of Swords Prediction: No. Kenzie is out of there.

For Corbin and Kenzie, I think Kenzie is out of there.

I do not know what Corbin is going to do, and honestly, I think he may have already done enough. But if Kenzie is still open to him after this, something else is going to happen that makes her detach.

The Three of Swords reversed feels like trying to predict heartbreak before it comes. This is the energy of someone saying, “I have been hurt before, and I am not about to let you hurt me.” It can be that feeling of leaving before the other person gets the chance to embarrass you. It is emotional self-protection.

The Seven of Pentacles reversed is her realizing, “This is not worth investing in,” or “I did not get what I wanted out of this.” It is not wanting to keep watering a plant that is not growing. She may have liked him, but she is not going to keep pouring into something that makes her feel unsure.

Then the Queen of Swords tells me that when Kenzie is playing this game, because it is a game at the end of the day, she is playing it smartly. I know she is not everybody’s favorite, but I do not think she is dumb. The Queen of Swords sees through things. She cuts through the bullshit. She is not sacrificing herself for a man on this show.

So no, I do not think Corbin and Kenzie end up together. I think Kenzie is going to choose herself, cut her losses, and move smarter.

Kenzie and Caleb

Cards pulled: The Hierophant, Five of Pentacles reversed, Ten of Pentacles, Ace of Swords, Death Prediction: Yes. I think they have the strongest chance of locking in out of the current couples.

Now for Kenzie and Caleb. If you had to ask me right now who has the highest chance of being in the final four based on the current connections, I would say Kenzie and Caleb.

I am not saying they are the winners. We still have more bombshells, Casa, recouplings, and a lot of show left. We do not know who is going to win. But based on these cards, if you asked me who has the strongest current chance of making it far and actually locking in, I would say Kenzie and Caleb.

The Hierophant is commitment. It is values. It is tradition. It is how you were raised. I do not always like to reduce the Hierophant to marriage, but we are talking about a love show, so yes, the Hierophant can represent commitment and taking a connection seriously.

I feel like they may be very similar in how they grew up, what they believe, what they want, or how they see relationships. Politically, religiously, family-wise, lifestyle-wise — whatever it is, I feel like there is something about their values that lines up. Some people like the thrill of dating someone completely different from them because it feels exciting to learn someone new. I do not think these two need that. I think they are going to bond because being together feels easy. They are alike enough that the real world would not feel impossible.

The Five of Pentacles reversed is someone coming out of feeling unsupported, alone, or left out. This could be emotional, but because Pentacles are here so heavily, I also have to talk about money. Love Island is a show where money is literally the prize, so when I see Five of Pentacles reversed with the Ten of Pentacles, I cannot ignore that.

The Ten of Pentacles is a power couple card. It is legacy. It is money. It is public image. It is “we can build something from this.” So I definitely think Kenzie and Caleb could make money from being a pair, whether they actually win the show or not.

I do not know if one of them is secretly broke, if one of them does not have as much money as they present, or if this is simply about both of them realizing that this relationship could change their lives. But I do feel like there is money attached to this connection.

They may become branded as a couple. They may not even have to be the most romantic couple in the world for it to work. They could give Nickolandria-type energy, where people debate if they are really together or not, but it does not matter because they are still making money from being associated with each other.

I think Kenzie and Caleb are going to play this game the right way.

Then when I asked for more, I got the Ace of Swords, which is the lightbulb. That is clarity. That is the moment where both of them realize, “Oh, this is what we need to do.” With Death, I feel like something shifts. Something happens, whether on camera or behind the scenes, where they realize, “Yeah, I am not letting you go.”

This does not mean I am 100% sure they are madly in love. Romantically, I do not know yet. But are they going to be committed to each other in some way? Yes. Are they going to see the benefit of being together? Yes. Are they going to lock in for the money, the image, the show, and possibly real compatibility? Yes. I think they are like-minded enough to plot together, and that is why they are dangerous.

Sol and Sincere

Cards pulled for the connection: Five of Pentacles, The Sun reversed, Queen of Swords Prediction: Absolutely not. Sol is walking away.

The Five of Pentacles is somebody feeling unsupported, abandoned, or like the other person does not have their back. The Sun reversed is unhappiness, and the fact that her name is literally Sol while the Sun is reversed is ironic. She is not going to be happy.

The Sun reversed can also represent someone who naturally carries heavier emotions, sadness, pessimism, or a more emotionally sensitive energy. So a person like Sincere may not work for her if he is bringing confusion, inconsistency, or chaos.

I think Sincere is going to make Sol feel abandoned. He may not mean to, but that is how it feels. She may feel like, “You do not have my back. You are not choosing me. You are not making me feel safe.” And once she realizes that, the Queen of Swords comes out.

That tells me Sol may be emotional, but she is not dumb. She may have a soft or sad vibe, but she is still going to make the logical decision. Once she clocks that Sincere is not giving her what she needs, she is going to walk away.

But when I asked how Sincere is going to end up feeling about Sol, I got something different.

Cards pulled for Sincere’s feelings: Eight of Pentacles, King of Cups, Temperance, Two of Pentacles, Page of Swords

I do not think Sincere is heartless toward Sol. The Eight of Pentacles is trying to work on something. It can also be someone trying to work on themselves and be better. The King of Cups is genuine care and affection, so I do think he may grow to actually care about Sol.

Then Temperance tells me that Sol may feel very calming to him. She may regulate him. She may feel peaceful compared to Melanie or compared to whatever chaotic connections he has coming in the future. Temperance is a person who brings peace. It is emotional regulation. It is calm energy.

So Sincere may look at Sol and feel like, “This is what I should want. This is what would be good for me.” But that does not mean he knows what to do with it. Some people are so used to chaos that when peace shows up, they do not know how to choose it.

And with the Two of Pentacles and Page of Swords still being here, that is the problem. He cannot juggle. He cannot just pick one person. He may like both Melanie and Sol. He may be curious about both. He may try to give attention to both. But curiosity is not action, and juggling is not commitment.

So I think Sincere may actually care about Sol, but Sol is not going to have too much of his bullshit.

KC and Aniya

Cards pulled: Five of Swords reversed, Four of Cups, Page of Wands, Ace of Wands, King of Wands, Three of Swords, King of Swords reversed Prediction: No. This is the messiest one, and somebody is getting hurt.

Now for the most messy one, which I honestly did not expect: KC and Aniya.

The first card I got for how this relationship is going to end was the Five of Swords reversed. That tells me there is going to be someone, or both of them, feeling like, “I am tired of having these dumbass conversations with you about shit that is not worth arguing about.”

Five of Swords reversed feels like being tired of the petty conflict. It is not even wanting to win the argument anymore. It is just being over the bickering, over the ego, over the little misunderstandings that keep turning into something bigger.

Then I clarified and got the Four of Cups, which is boredom, disinterest, and emotional dissatisfaction. When we are talking about someone you like, that is basically, “Yeah, I do not like you like that anymore.” Someone starts checking out.

Then I asked what was going on with that and got the Page of Wands and Ace of Wands. That is sex. That is horny energy. That is physical attraction. That is temptation. And in the context of Love Island, that is bombshell energy.

When I clarified again, I got the King of Wands, so this is connected to a masculine energy. I do not know if this is KC, or if this is a male bombshell coming in, but there is definitely a fiery masculine energy that shakes this connection up.

This could go a few ways.

One possibility is that a male bombshell comes in and is very aggressive with Aniya. He may be exactly her type. He may be fun, confident, and openly on her. Like, “Anaya is sexy. I need that.” KC is sweet and gentlemanly from what we have seen, but this person may bring a different kind of heat.

Another possibility is that this is KC’s real energy coming out when a girl comes in who is more his speed. Maybe a bombshell comes in and brings out that Page of Wands/Ace of Wands/King of Wands side of him. As we have seen, Aniya does not seem like she is with doing all the freaky-deaky stuff on camera. Even in that paint challenge, she was the only one who did not kiss everybody, which I am sure KC appreciated. But if a bombshell comes in who is more physically open, flirty, and fiery, that could mess them up.

Either way, I think a bombshell is going to fuck them up.

And I say that because the Three of Swords and King of Swords reversed are here. The Three of Swords is heartbreak. That is somebody getting their heart tore up to the floor up. That is betrayal. That is, “You did something I did not think you would do, and that shit hurt.”

The King of Swords reversed is cold. That is somebody who does not care about anybody’s feelings. He is not moving based on emotion, and he does not care about your emotions either. It is detached, harsh, and cutting. Can also indicate harsh words to come from a masculine (I assume KC).

So for me, it is one of two things. Either Aniya gets caught up with a bombshell and it hurts KC so bad that he becomes cold and shuts down emotionally, or KC gets caught up with a bombshell, hurts Aniya, and does not really give a fuck in the moment. And if that happens, everybody may be shocked because they will be like, “Wait, this is KC?”

I do not know which side it is coming from yet, but I feel very strongly that something is going to happen with a bombshell, physical temptation, and somebody getting hurt. So no, I do not think KC and Aniya may not make it either.

Who will win?

my cards indicated that whoever wins is going to be someone who gets hurt very badly on the show. the vision I saw is a girl who will get done very dirty (ace of pentacles, 10 of swords reversed) , but a man (knight of swords) is going to chase her down. so this is either going to be a couple that started off rough and there is a dramatic chase down (I love you girl!!!! Take me back!! GENUINE moment , guy to girl, OR, maybe when the girls go to casa, someone in the villa who got severely played/heartbroken is properly chased by a guy and she ends up winning the whole thing with him.. it’s one of those stories based on my cards and the energy i pulled.

[cherry-pages]

listen i know its early in love island us and im not supposed to put all my “eggs in one basket” or whatever the fuck

that being said i would kill someone for bryce and trinity. their adorable interactions and combined beautiful aesthetics are carrying the show for me. trinity is an absolute ray of sunshine. i would die for them. BRINITY4LIFE

(terrified this will not age well btw)

[invaderzimzalabim]

brinity being the only couple not mad at each other 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[alibisz]

Brinity

guys, i'm genuinely obsessed with Trinity and Bryce. they are sooo cute.

they low-key have good communication, even after Zach started planting seeds of doubt in Bryce's mind. I really hope they work out.

the conversation that they had where they were worried that each of them may leave each other for someone more of their type was actually quite deep. as trinity was speaking of one of the problems that can occur with interracial dating and it was such a necessary convo to have and I'm glad we saw it.

i'm glad that they (especially bryce) are big communicators. i believe that Trinity and Bryce just need to fully tell each other how they feel for each other as I think that would help stop the insecurity they may have in their connection

however, it's only week 2 (almost week 3), so people shouldn't berate them if they would want to explore. ALSO, I can't believe people are calling Bryce ugly as if he wasn't running Tumblr back in the day.

[right4you]

Is anyone else watching love island and a brinity stand?!!! Omg my heart broke after episode 8 so I made an alternate ending so I can cope #lowkeyparasocialaboutthem

What was I thinking?

Trinity walks away from Bryce with a heavy heart trying to figure out why he wants to explore other connections?

Does he not like me anymore?

Did he even like me to begin with?

She messed with her necklace looking down at her heels wanting to be alone for a moment while she gathered her thoughts. Everyone kept assuring her that he likes her but now she’s wondering were they lying to her? Are they saying what she wants to hear to keep her from getting with the other islanders, but the thing is she doesn’t want the other islanders, she wants Bryce.

How could this happen? everything was going in the right direction.

She’s taking deep breaths trying her hardest not to let her eyes water, blinking rapidly trying to steer her thoughts away from him.

Bryce steps away walking back to the others but he couldn’t help but to turn back.

Trinity isn’t that far from him, he gets an urge to walk after her but some force tugs him to continue his way but he can’t tear his eyes away from her. No matter the circumstances his eyes are always on her. So why does he want to look at someone else?

She’s looking down at her feet walking back inside and he watches, her hands come up to her face. Everything around him silenced he could hear her heels clack softly against the hard wood floor and a faint sniffle.

His heart drops, is she crying?

Her hands wipe away from her face. “No” he softly says He stops walking looking away for a second at the others, they’re all in their own conversations talking with each other and his eyes lock on kaydas face, she’s laughing at whatever Zach is saying.

What am I thinking? I don’t want kayda. I want - he turns to Trinity who is half way inside. I want Trinity. He breaks into a jog following his girl inside

“Trinity!” He calls her out but she ignores him “Trinity wait!” He runs inside catching up to her, she lightly shakes her head pushing in the door but he stops her from fully entering by grabbing her wrist, his hand wraps around hers stoping her completely pulling her in to his arms.

“I’m sorry” he says in to her curly black hair “I’m sorry” he repeats bringing a hand to smooth down her hair feeling the thick curly pattern. Her arms wrapped around his waist, her head rests on his shoulder breathing in his scent “Bryce” her voice cracks and it shoots a pang of hurt to his chest “Trinity I’m sorry, ignore everything I said, I don’t mean it. I was being an idiot. I don’t want Kayda, I don’t want anyone else but you”

<3

Okay I feel better, hope you liked it, if you’re also a brinity shipper can’t wait for episode 9 I hope everything was a misunderstanding bc they are having some miscommunication and hopefully they resolve it so we can witness a good love story happen 😏

[mblocket]

no one will want to be around me if we lose brinity and zryce in one swoop
