• One of the fan-favorite couples on Love Island USA season 8, Trinity and Bryce, had viewers geeking over their Tumblr-era similarities.
  • Internet sleuths discovered Trinity and Bryce each appeared in Tubi movies before becoming Islanders.
  • Fans were amazed to learn the couple shared multiple past lives—from internet fame to movie appearances—fueling theories that Trinity and Bryce were cosmically “meant Tubi” before meeting on the show.

Love Island USA season 8 is shaping up to be one of the show’s most deliciously chaotic seasons to date, thanks in part to the Islanders’ past lives before entering the Villa. Case in point: Trinity and Bryce, the fan-favorite couple who have fans cheering them on from the sidelines, thanks to their sweet and silly dynamic. It didn’t take fans long to realize that Bryce first gained traction as a Tumblr It Boy, or that Trinity rocked a Triangl bikini that reigned over our reblogs in the 2010s.

That’s not all—they share another common thread long before they even met in the Fiji Villa. Thanks to the internet sleuths’ latest revelation, fans discovered that the pair is equal parts hilarious and iconic for another reason: Trinity and Bryce each starred in Tubi movies before they officially became Islanders.

According to a viral TikTok posted by @decoratedcupcake, Trinity was in a movie on the free streaming platform.

They posted another clip, which revealed that Bryce, who made a name for himself modeling, also had some screen time in a Tubi film.

“Looks like Bryce & Trinity are meant Tubi,” one fan wrote, while another added, “Her and Bryce both being in a tubi movie is frying me.” Others questioned how fans even tracked down the niche projects, with someone chiming in, “People who can pull things up from the past needs to use their skills to finding missing people.”

In case you’re curious about the exact movies—okay, let’s face it, you’re itching to know—I managed to put my journalism degree to work and tracked down the titles. Per IMDb, Bryce starred in the 2022 flick Alabama Rose and was credited as Bryce Alakai.

As for Trinity’s acting gig, it’s unclear whether the film is credited on her IMDb profile aside from Love Island USA. But there is a short film called Confess that she’s credited for, so that could be it!

Either way, the concept of Tubi movies being Trinity and Bryce’s invisible string will be living in my mind rent-free until further notice, thank you so much.
