Love Island’s Kaylor Martin Appears to Hard Launch New Relationship Nearly 1 Year After Dramatic Split from Aaron Evans

Kaylor Martin provided a very big update about her love life after her highly publicized split from Aaron Evans.

The 22-year-old Love Island USA star took to social media over Memorial Day Weekend to seemingly reveal that she is in a new relationship.

On TikTok, Martin shared a video of herself singing along to Kesha’s cheeky 2010 song “Grow a Pear” before bringing out a man who is seemingly her new boyfriend and kissing him for the camera.

“Hard launch or whatever,” she captioned the 15-second clip.

Martin didn’t tag her new man in the video. However, she shared some photos on Instagram and revealed that he is named Torin Dunn.

In one of the new photos from the post, Martin and Dunn were captured in the middle of a sweet kiss. Another snapshot was of them striking a silly pose. There was even a video of them together singing into microphones at a bar.

“just a little dump for the feed,” Martin captioned the post.

Dunn took to his own personal Instagram and posted a few additional photos with Martin, including one of them staring lovingly into each other’s eyes while he held her up.

In the comments section of the various posts, fans celebrated Martin’s exciting reveal. Others joked that the reality TV star “had a type,” drawing comparisons between Dunn and Evans.

Martin and Evans became an item when they were paired up on the sixth season of the popular reality TV show, which aired in the summer of 2024. However, their relationship ended before the end of the summer.

In August 2024, Martin confirmed that she and Evans were “done,” saying that they “are not together.”

During a Love Island USA event, Martin clarified that she was indeed single. She also expressed regret over her response to Evans after the Casa Amor episodes, which saw him stray physically from their relationship.

“One thing I regret is in Casa — not channeling my inner bad b—-,” she said during an August 2024 interview. “I just fumbled through it.”

She continued, “Listen, I’m very lucky. I’m 22 years old, I’m going to go through heartbreak, falling in love — all of it. I know we all have maybe been there once or twice, and I’m glad I have been through it and I’m learning from this situation. And I’m single!”

While filming the Love Island USA reunion episode that same month, Evans revealed that he had lied to Martin about what happened when he was with the other woman.

“I didn’t tell her the whole truth. I put my hands down Daniela’s pants. I kissed her, I snogged her. We had loads of romantic connections,” he said about the controversial episodes.

The revelation prompted Martin to put her ex on blast, calling him “disgusting.”

“I’m tired of the f—— excuses. Take accountability and be a man. I just saw you the last three f—— days in New York and you haven’t said that to me once. Why would you do that? Why do you keep f—— lying to me? And quit love-bombing me!”

She continued, saying, “I don’t want anything to do with you. I never want to speak to you again. You’re disgusting. And I do not deserve that. And you know, what? I walked into the villa being so confident, and you beat me down, beat me down, beat me down and I left a different girl. It’s not cool and it’s not fun. Leave me alone. You do not deserve me. At all. You’re disgusting.” 

Despite their relationship’s rocky ending, Martin and Evans will reunite on camera for Love Island: Beyond the Villa, a new series that follows the reality stars and tracks their experiences adjusting to life after the original series.

Love Island: Beyond the Villa premieres this summer on Peacock.
