Kyra Green and Cashel Barnett: A Love Story Ends
Kyra Green and Cashel Barnett captured the hearts of viewers with their surprising romance on the U.S. edition of “Love Island.” Kyra even chose to exit the show in pursuit of rekindling her relationship with Cashel after he was eliminated, only to discover that he had already made his return. Unfortunately, the pair, both with a shared passion for music, decided to part ways in October 2019.
By late November, the couple had reunited, but their reconciliation was short-lived. In February 2020, Kyra and Cashel decided to end their relationship permanently.
“We had a good run,” Cashel revealed on the #NoFilter podcast. “We’re just in different stages of our lives… I think she might have even blocked my number,” he candidly admitted.
Kyra continued to make waves on television, appearing on shows like Match Me If You Can in 2021, The Challenge: USA in 2022 (where Cashel was also a contestant), and Love Island Games in 2023. Ultimately, she found love away from the spotlight with Tal Sahar, a dental student and former basketball player, in 2024.
In May 2025, Cashel was jailed in Utah on charges of domestic violence and assault, according to online records. The following month, new charges of assault and domestic violence were filed against him.
According to NBC News, Cashel denied the allegations, with his attorney Andrew K. Deesing telling the outlet, “My client and his family are enduring an incredibly difficult time, and we hope that his privacy will be respected as we work diligently to defend his name and reputation. Obviously, we’re in the very early stages of this and don’t have any further comment at this time.”
