Love Island stars Harry Cooksley and Shakira Khan made it to the final, but ultimately missed out on the £50k prize -won by Toni Laites and Cach Mercer.

From messy love triangles involving Helena Ford, to a surprise reunion in the final weeks, viewers have followed the highs and lows of their relationship. Although Harry formed an initial connection with Shakira, she swiftly ended things with him after picking up on his womaniser antics.

Harry spent most of his time in the villa experience coupled up with Helena, even becoming 'exclusive'. However beneath the surface, his feelings for Shakira still persisted. Eventually, he ended things with Helena and chose to couple up with Shakira.

Now, months on from their time in the Love Island villa, are Harry and Shakira still together? Or has normal life proven too much and they've split? Here's the latest news.

Are Love Island's Harry and Shakira still together?

You'll be happy to hear that yes, Harry and Shakira are still very much together and are planning to buy a barn conversion in Burnley (Harry's words not ours).

Months on from the show now, the couple have managed to maintain their relationship, taking trips to one another's homes and spending time with family and friends.

However, things are still moving slow for Harry and Shakira after they admitted they still hadn't gone exclusive yet. In an exclusive chat with Capital. Shakira told us: "Yeah, me and Harry are just enjoying our time together. Obviously people are going to have their opinion but at the end of the day, it's our relationship.

"People see an hour everyday of what goes on [in the villa], and life after the villa has progressed so much. So, we're just really enjoying our time together."

Addressing their status, she talked about the latest relationship trend of girlfriend and boyfriend 'proposals'. She added: "I don't know how I feel about the boyfriend and girlfriend proposals.

"But, yeah, maybe I do expect a little something more now. Who knows? We'll see what [Harry's] got up his sleeve."

Love Island's Harry and Shakira's relationship timeline

August 2025: Leaving Love Island

We all know it was an awkward start for the lovebirds but they left the villa determined to make it work. They met one another's friends and families, attended the reunion party together and even had that infamous pie date while in bed at a hotel.

September 2025: Wedding date

Shakira attended one of her closest friend's wedding and there was only one person she was bringing as her date - Harry! Rubbing shoulders with her nearest and dearest, Harry even made the effort to colour co-ordinate his suit with her baby pink dress. Couple goals, right?

September 2025: A trip to Burnely

It was time for another trip home for Shakira and she took partner Harry with her so they could enjoy some downtime since entering their post-Love Island bubble.

She said: "So we've just had a really nice weekend in Burnley, actually. So he came up to visit, showed him the ropes show showed him the town it was great. It was nice to just have a bit of R&R and like, get away from all the noise."Because it's been a lot, I think when I had such a normal life before, to be thrown into such chaos it's important just to have time to ourselves and just spend some quality time together. So, yeah, it's been really good."
