They Made History, but Are Mimii Ngulube and Josh Oyinsan From 'Love Island U.K.' Still Together?

Love is in the air everywhere as both Love Island USA and Love Island U.K. have found their winners for their respective seasons. Kordell Beckham and Serena Page were chosen by American viewers to win the top prize after watching the ups and downs of their relationship unfold throughout the season. That couple is still going strong and hopefully will continue to, but what about their counterparts across the pond? Are Love Island U.K.'s winning couple, Mimii Ngulube and Josh Oyinsan, still together?

Love Island U.K. is the original in the franchise. The show first premiered in a celebrity format called Celebrity Love Island that premiered in 2005. Unfortunately, at that time, the series did not do well and was canceled after two seasons. The celebrity aspect was removed, and in 2015 Love Island premiered, and this time, it was a big success. Since then, it has grown to 22 series spread across the globe under its umbrella. Love Island U.K. is also the most successful in creating long-lasting couples.

After a beautiful journey together in the villa, Mimii and Josh took home the grand prize to share as a couple. Their story was inspirational to watch, and as of right now, it appears that they are still together. They spoke with former islander Indiyah Polack on a podcast, where they touched on their relationship status. They are taking their time, according to Josh, who said, "We love the fact that everyone loves us together, but the pace that we're going at is good for me; it's good for her."

As one of the original arrivals on the island, Mimii developed an immediate connection with Ayo Odukoya, and coupled up with him. Mimii believed in her connection with Ayo and stayed faithful to him while he had his own dalliances in Casa Amor. Thankfully, Josh put in his work to show her that he was the right choice, and after she was called out for an embarrassing situation (i.e., a failed "secret mission" to meet up with Ayo on the terrace), she found her way to Josh. Some fans believed there had been a narrative being built that Mimii still wanted Ayo, but these viewers were not fooled.

A few fans of the series were not too keen on Mimii after the failed "secret mission," but those rooting for her saw the opportunity to set up a strong foundation of honesty with Josh. They were able to talk through their issues, which added to the joy of watching their connection deepen. Not only was it beautiful to watch the seeds of love sprout, but they are also making history as the first entirely Black couple to win Love Island U.K.
