The wait is almost over for Love Island USA fans. After weeks of recouplings, Casa Amor twists and surprise eliminations, the reality dating show has finally reached its finale. The final four couples are now locked in while two pairs narrowly missed out on a place in the last episode.
The Love Island USA Season 8 finale streams on Sunday, July 12, with viewers deciding which couple walks away with the coveted title and the $100,000 cash prize.

Love Island USA Season 8: What Happens During The Finale?
The remaining couples will each go on one final romantic date before host Ariana Madix announces America’s favourite couple.
The winners will be revealed from fourth place to first before receiving the show’s $100,000 grand prize. But the final twist remains one of the biggest moments of every season.
Instead of automatically sharing the prize, one member of the winning couple will receive an envelope containing the money while the other gets an empty envelope. The Islander holding the prize must then decide whether to keep the entire amount or split it with their partner.
Who Is Favoured To Win Love Island USA Season 8?
While the winner will ultimately be decided by viewers through the Love Island USA app, prediction markets are already pointing towards a clear favourite.
According to Mirror US citing Kalshi, Trinity Tatum and Bryce Alakai Dettloff, popularly known as Brinity, are the overwhelming favourites to win Love Island USA Season 8, with an 86 per cent chance of taking home the title. But more recent odds shared by Just Jared suggest the couple’s chances have climbed even higher with both Trinity and Bryce sitting at 93 per cent.
The pair have been together since day one and have remained one of the villa’s strongest couples throughout the season. Even after exploring new connections during Casa Amor, they chose each other again during an emotional reunion, a journey that has resonated with fans.
Meanwhile, Aniya Harvey and Carl Lee Schmidt are currently the second favourites. Kalshi gives the pair a 68 per cent chance of finishing in second place while individual betting odds place Carl at a 7 per cent chance of winning and Aniya at 6 per cent. Their relationship began during Casa Amor and although Aniya initially decided not to recouple with Carl, he made his way back to the villa after America voted to save him. The two officially coupled up on day 25.
Melanie Moreno and Sincere Rhea are considered the third favourites with Kalshi giving them a 68 per cent chance of finishing third. Individual odds place both Islanders at 4 per cent to win. Although Sincere briefly coupled up with Sol after a fan vote, he eventually reunited with Melanie on day 13 and the pair have remained together since.
At the other end of the table are Kayda Bosse and Zach Georgiou. Despite being one of the longest standing couples after pairing up on day three, the latest betting odds give Zach a 3 per cent chance of winning and Kayda 2 per cent.
