Whilst there was plenty of drama to be had, you couldn’t exactly call Love Island USA 2020 a roaring success in terms of creating lasting couples. Less than six months on from the series 2 finale, almost every single coupling–including winners Justine Ndiba and Caleb Corprew–has split.

Mackenzie Dipman and Connor Trott relationship

However, one couple that have surprised everyone are Mackenzie Dipman and Connor Trott. Although Mackenzie dumped Connor in the villa when she had her head turned in Casa Amor, they rekindled their romance after leaving the show and have been together as a couple ever since.

They seemed to be inseparable on social media in the months following their Love Island appearance but a lack of photos recently has left fans wondering if their romance has ended up fizzling out too. Thankfully, that doesn’t seem to be the case, as Mackenzie shared a relationship update this week.

Mackenzie Dipman responds to split rumours

Taking to Instagram, she wrote:

Connor & I are still together. Connor did not start his full time job in public accounting until December, so for those first few months outside of the villa, we had much more time to spend together & visit each other. Now, Connor is in Pittsburgh & I am in Tucson. Connor's job as an auditor is very demanding & keeps him busy.

She continued:

I promised to always be as upfront as possible with you guys and that’s just the honest truth. Connor’s job keeps him busy in Pittsburgh and my life is here. You want advice for long distance relationships? Be supportive of your partner's goals & growth. Connor has my support & I know I always have his.
