NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE: Former 'Love Island' stars Theo Campbell and Olivia Kaiser had their own version of love, following their adventures in the villa. On June 6, Olivia stated that she was happily dating Theo in an Instagram Story Q&A.

Olivia, the winner of the third season of the American version of the dating program, posted, "He not only accepts but encourages me to be 100% myself," accompanied by a photo of the couple sharing pizza on a tropical vacation. "I’m never TOO much or not enough. I love him."

When did 'The Challenge' stars Olivia Kaiser and Theo Campbell get together?

While gone filming 'The Challenge', cast members often don't maintain their social media accounts. Usually, someone else manages their account if changes show up.

Some cast members, though, wait to provide any information until they get back. Olivia from Season 40 experienced this; she last uploaded on her TikTok on March 6 and hasn't done so since.

In their bikinis, she and another cast member, Nia Moore, performed a variety of dancing moves or responded to songs in her videos from last week. The teasers suggest that Olivia and Nia bonded throughout Season 40 and went on vacation together once production was over.

Olivia appeared to consider herself when the line "When you fall in love again" appeared on-screen in one TikTok video. That may have, however, been a reference to Olivia and castmate Theo's showmance developing into a more committed love relationship following Season 40 of shooting.

Olivia got her castmate's name tattooed on her neck, as fans and superfans discovered in a variety of Instagram Story images or videos.

Olivia's Instagram handle is tagged on the picture, and "London-Bound" is written on it, as can be seen in the Instagram post.

Olivia lip-synchs to a narrator's voiceover from her past reality TV program, 'Love Island', in a TikTok video that she posted on May 19. She says, "This week, a hot new bombshell enters the villa," with just her visible on camera.

But as the camera moves, it becomes clear that Theo is standing next to her. Before the clip concludes, he makes fun of a female 'Love Island' cast member's introduction by lip-synching her words.

Olivia and Theo were among numerous Season 40 showmances or hookups, according to online sources. Online clues imply that Olivia and Theo developed into a solid challenge pair following the Season 40 shooting, although it's still early.

'The Challenge' star Olivia Kaiser ready to conquer long distances to be with Theo Campbell

Olivia acknowledged that she had previously met Theo's family and had made arrangements to overcome great distances, but she did not elaborate on how she had bonded with the castaway from season three of 'Love Island UK'.

She said, "We are just taking it day by day. But, we have some plans."

Olivia is from Alaska, while Theo is from England. After her season on 'Love Island USA', she relocated to Arizona, and in August, she intends to move to Nashville.

She said in another post, "I feel like I’m outgrowing Arizona and I don’t want to move to L.A."

Olivia Kaiser and Theo Campbell both fell in love with other people during their time on 'Love Island'

Olivia rose to prominence on 'Love Island USA' Season 3 in 2021, when she won alongside then-boyfriend Korey Gandy. The couple only dated for a few months after the season concluded.

Theo has also been a regular on 'The Challenge' following a brief appearance on 'Love Island UK'. He arrived late during the 2017 season and was eventually sent out of the mansion before finding The One.

He went on to date Season 4 alum Kaz Crossley from 2019 to 2020.

Olivia Kaiser won 'Love Island USA' Season 3 with then-boyfriend Korey Gandy

'Love Island' wasn't exactly a simple path for Korey and Olivia. Before he paired up with Olivia, Korey was in relationships with Kyra Lizama, Trina Njoroge, Florita Diaz, Cashay Proudfoot, and Leslie Golden during his stay in the villa.

Olivia, in the meantime, and Javonny Vega were together for the majority of the program. But it wasn't until Olivia decided to return from Casa Amor alone to confront her love for Korey that their experience on 'Love Island USA' truly came full circle for either of them.

Throughout the entire season, Olivia and Korey were merely friends, but as time went on, their relationship turned amorous. Before the 'Love Island USA' season 3 finale, they had no idea that they were the favorites.

Naturally, Olivia and Korey ended up winning the season.

Why did 'Love Island USA' Season 3 winners Olivia Kaiser and Korey Gandy split?

Merely months after emerging victorious from 'Love Island USA' Season 3, Korey declared his separation from Olivia, according to US Weekly. The now 30-year-old rental car agent revealed that the pair had decided to distance themselves from one another and become friends.

Even though Korey acknowledged on the program that Olivia made him extremely happy, they found it more difficult to manage their lives outside the villa. Those who had witnessed their love blossom weeks before were startled to learn of their split.
