The relationship story of “Love Island USA” couple Deb and Jesse is quite short.

Deb and Jesse entered the villa together on day one and were a couple almost immediately. Although they encountered a few obstacles along the way, such as socialising with other singles, the couple eventually rekindled their romance. Their strong connection even took them to the final, where they finished in third place.

Although they didn’t win, Deb and Jesse left the villa hand in hand, ready to take on the world as a power couple. On November 12, 2022, Deb spoke to EHR! Message and shared an exciting update on their relationship: Jesse had moved from Texas to California to be closer to her!

But just three days later, Deb and Jesse announced their separation via Deb’s Instagram story. In a statement, she announced that they had decided together that they were better as friends than as lovers.
