Cashel Barnett and Alexandra Karacozoff were in a long-distance relationship. During their time together, he often posted glimpses of their special moments on Instagram. Their connection was reflected in their romantic photos and singing videos on social media.

The Love Island USA star had shared a loving post dedicated to his ex-girlfriend in August 2020, calling her his best friend. However, while the couple publicly expressed their love through social media posts, they stopped posting in 2021.

Karacozoff started posting pictures with a man named Mike on her Instagram in March 2021. While her action hinted that she and Barnett may have split, none of them officially commented on the breakup. Ever since their separation, they have not been seen together.

Before dating Alexandra Karacozoff, Cashel Barnett shared a romantic relationship with Kyra Green. They met on the set of Love Island USA Season 1 in 2019. Kyra hails from Los Angeles and she aspires to be an actress, according to IMDb.

During their courtship, Cashel and Kyra broke up and reconciled several times. Even after the reality show's end, they continued seeing each other. Meanwhile, they also opened a joint YouTube channel, Kyra and Cash.

After separating from each other multiple times, they officially broke up in early 2020. Later, Green unfollowed Barnett on social media. Per TheThings, he reacted to the stunt, saying,

"We had a good go."

While chatting on the No Filter With Zack Peter podcast, he added,

"I think we're just in different places in our lives... I think she blocked my number, to be honest."

Cashel and Kyra reunited on The Challenge: USA as contestants. Meeting each other after two years of their split was an unusual "bittersweet" experience for her. According to a report by Showbiz Cheat Sheet, she admitted feeling,

"a mix of emotions."

Kyra later revealed that trust issues developed in her relationship with Cashel over time.
