JoJo Siwa’s ex Kath Ebbs goes red carpet official with new AFLW star girlfriend Tilly Lucas-Rodd

JoJo Siwa’s former partner, Kath Ebbs, publicly debuted their new relationship with Tilly Lucas-Rodd, a player for the Hawthorn football team, at the AFLW Awards.

Kath and Tilly are non-binary and use they/them pronouns. 

Kath, 28, turned heads with her outfit: a black blazer worn as a short dress, combined with thick-soled platform shoes and black ankle socks.

Oh my gosh, their hair! Those blonde curls were just… perfect. Like, effortlessly messy and cool, all wavy and textured. And their makeup? So fresh! It wasn’t cakey or overdone at all, just this gorgeous, dewy glow. Seriously, they looked amazing. I can’t stop thinking about it!

Tilly, age 29, made history as the first AFLW player to have chest surgery. For the occasion, she chose a stylish outfit: a charcoal pinstripe suit worn with a black t-shirt and belt.

They finished the look with sleek leather shoes and a silver chain.

The football player looked thrilled to be with Kath, and the couple couldn’t stop gazing at each other while posing for pictures.

This appearance on the red carpet follows Kath’s recent discussion of how difficult their public breakup with JoJo Siwa was, especially after everything that happened on Celebrity Big Brother UK.

In April 2025, an Australian actor and online personality unexpectedly found himself at the center of worldwide attention when he developed a close connection with fellow housemate Chris Hughes on a reality show.

Although the on-screen relationship seemed like something from a reality show, Kath says the situation off-camera was actually very painful.

I kept hearing people tell me that everyone agreed with me and could see things were wrong. But honestly, I didn’t feel secure at all. It felt like everything was unstable and changing beneath my feet.

After the show finished filming, Kath was shocked when JoJo broke up with them at the after-party. They immediately shared a vulnerable 13-minute video on TikTok explaining what happened, but were later asked to remove it.

They explained that even though they were stunned, they simply wanted others to see things from their perspective. Unfortunately, that didn’t happen.

Kath believes that because they weren’t able to share their side of the story, inaccurate information spread quickly online, and people focused on what was shown on TV instead of understanding the genuine pain they were experiencing.

Viewers really connected with the show’s plot and preferred the fictional outcome over a potentially painful reality.

The pressure was so overwhelming, Kath says they spiralled mentally.

‘I was so anxious I couldn’t eat, couldn’t sleep,’ they admitted.

I recall being on set, outwardly happy and joking around, but inside I was secretly struggling with thoughts of suicide. The pain felt overwhelming and inescapable.

Kath felt small and powerless, like someone from Australia caught up in events much bigger than herself and beyond her influence.

After a few months, the celebrity seems much happier and more settled with Tilly, and their recent public appearance together suggests a fresh start for the couple.

The couple, enjoying a low-key time in Melbourne and Sydney, appeared relaxed and happy while celebrating the AFLW season together, holding hands and posing for photos.

We don’t know exactly how JoJo and Kath first met, but it’s thought they were set up by friends – musician G Flip and their wife, Chrishell Stause from the show Selling Sunset.

Okay, so you HAVE to know about Kath! She’s amazing. She runs this incredible podcast called ‘Call Me Kath’ – seriously, you need to listen! And, get this, she also owns the cutest little health food store ever, called The Smoothie Bowl Shack. It’s in Glebe, which is this really cool, central suburb, and honestly, her smoothie bowls are life-changing. I’m totally obsessed!

In addition to their other work, they’ve been a model, DJ, and brand ambassador for Nike. They’ve also appeared on TV news as an advocate for LGBTQ+ rights.
