JoJo Siwa’s former partner, Kath Ebbs, has reacted to rumors suggesting that JoJo and Chris Hughes are now in a relationship by posting a subtly sarcastic comment on social media.
The podcast host, aged 27, felt deeply upset when they observed their ex-girlfriend JoJo, who is 22 years old, developing an unusually tight relationship with Chris, a previous contestant from Love Island, during their time together in the Celebrity Big Brother house last month.
Despite Chris asserting that their in-house relationship was strictly platonic, Kath and JoJo parted ways shortly after the Dance Moms star’s departure from Celebrity Big Brother, implying an almost instant separation.
Since then, speculation has run rampant, with fans suggesting that there might be something more between JoJo and Chris beyond friendship.
Yesterday, they appeared to further fan the flames of speculation about their relationship when they posted numerous photos following Chris’s trip to the U.S. for JoJo’s 22nd birthday celebration.

The images depicted JoJo snuggling with the host and exchanging tender hugs, during a week that Chris referred to as ‘particularly lovely’.
Just moments prior, Kath, seemingly aware of the situation, posted on their Instagram Stories what appeared to be a discreet jab at JoJo and her rumored new partner.
In the photo, a 27-year-old with a sad expression is shown. Her caption reads, “All I can say is LOL” (Laugh Out Loud) which seems quite ironic given her mood.
For their friend’s 22nd birthday celebration, Chris and JoJo traveled to both Mexico and Florida. During this trip, the Love Island celebrity had the opportunity to meet numerous relatives and acquaintances.
Chris’s recent post on Tuesday stirred up rumors of a romantic relationship when he wrote, “The last seven days have been the most beautiful.
While JoJo replied with the telling comment: ‘& happiest:). Heart is overflowing.’
As I perused through the comment section, I couldn’t help but notice the buzz of excitement among fans who seemed to be convinced that the duo was embarking on a romantic journey together, or in other words, they appeared to be ‘kickstarting’ their relationship in a significant way.

‘Seriously guys… just announce your in a relationship please’; ‘You two are so cute together’;
‘What a perfect match for each other, you two kind-hearted individuals; Truly, if this isn’t the embodiment of love, then I am unsure what else it could be. How enchanting!’.
TopMob has contacted JoJo and Chris’ representatives for comment.
Before JoJo’s birthday, Chris traveled swiftly to Mexico from the United Kingdom, and afterward, they both enjoyed spending time together along with her family in Orlando.
It’s certain that JoJo will likely spend more time with Chris upon her return to the UK, as she’s scheduled to put on a sold-out show at Colours Hoxton in London on May 26th.
Previously, it was disclosed that he went somewhere to ensure they could spend her 22nd birthday together in celebration.
According to their statement, Chris prioritized being with her for her birthday rather than waiting, considering it significant. Since her birthday falls on May 19, they plan to celebrate it together.
Instead of waiting until she arrives in the UK for her upcoming tour segment this month, they chose to meet beforehand so they could have a private conversation.
On a Sunday morning, Chris shocked his followers by sharing on Snapchat that he had traveled for 12 hours to Mexico, unexpectedly visiting JoJo who was performing at a festival there before her birthday.
Chris posted a picture of himself and JoJo snuggled together at their hotel in Mexico City, accompanied by the caption: ‘Long-awaited reunion.’
Previously, the celebrity from Love Island had subtly suggested that he traveled from one ocean (Atlantic) to meet his friend by posting mysterious photos. However, he officially verified their meeting when she performed at Tec Emblema Festival.
Following my electrifying Mexico performance, I, the ultimate fan, couldn’t resist sharing a delightful collection of memories from this incredible adventure. Among these treasured moments is an entertaining backstage snapshot with the one and only Chris!
She titled her post: “Beautiful 24 Hours in Mexico! Oh my, what a fantastic trip I had, thank you @tecate_emblema for the invite:) The crowd was simply incredible, each and every one of you were absolutely amazing.
I appreciate the affection, generosity, and vigor you showed me while we were performing together. A quick collection of moments from the past 24 hours – there are many more, but here are some for now:)
Following their departure from the CBB residence, it was evident that Chris and JoJo remained connected. They exchanged glimpses of their lives through shared video chats on FaceTime with one another.
Since leaving home, their friendship has been a hot topic, and over the weekend, they gave followers a fresh look into their relationship by sharing photos on Snapchat.
Earlier, JoJo expressed that she deeply missed the United Kingdom, conveying this emotion through a heartfelt video as she prepared to return home after her stint in CBB.
Spectators believe that there might be a budding romance between JoJo and someone new, as she announced her breakup with Kath Ebbs during the Celebrity Big Brother wrap party in the previous month.
JoJo and Chris maintained an air of mystery regarding their relationship, even though they explicitly stated during their interview on This Morning that they were simply friends.
A significant number of people remained skeptical, particularly following Chris’ decision to withdraw from participating in the next season of Celebs Go Dating.
JoJo fueled speculation even more by not ruling out a potential romantic future during her appearance at Stanford Speakers Bureau event, A Night with JoJo Siwa.
The Dance Moms star was queried about the development of their relationship, and in response, she expressed that they enjoy each other immensely and he is a truly precious individual who has entered her life.
The audience responded to JoJo’s words with many “awws,” prompting her to remark, “Let’s keep this between us; it’ll only inflate his ego!
She went on to say: “What I adore about him immensely is his humility, for he possesses an extraordinary kindness. He truly is a wonderful man.
I expressed to him the other day (or some time ago), though it might not have been exactly the other day, that you play an essential role in my life that I hadn’t realized was absent.
I’m relieved not to have that responsibility any longer, but let me assure you, he’s an exceptional individual and I genuinely believe he has a long-lasting journey ahead of him.
Affirming that Chris won’t leave, she noted: ‘He’s valuable, we intend to hold onto him, we’ll evaluate the situation later.’
