JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes Spark Romance After Reality Show Connection
JoJo Siwa has opened up about her blossoming romance with Chris Hughes, her fellow contestant from the UK version of Celebrity Big Brother. During a recent episode of the "Rosebud With Gyles Brandreth" podcast, Siwa, 22, described their relationship as a "beautiful journey," expressing surprise at how the universe aligned for their paths to cross.
The pair met in April 2025 while filming the reality show and quickly formed a close bond. Initially, neither was seeking romance, but spent their time in the Big Brother house lifting each other’s spirits. “We were having a laugh together. Whenever one of us was down, the other helped,” recalled Siwa.
The relationship took a turn after Siwa left the show and ended her past relationship with Kath Ebbs. It was then that she recognized her growing feelings for Hughes, 32. “Over time, I started to feel something for Christopher that I never intended to, but I couldn’t not feel,” she shared.
The duo recently went public with their romance, with Siwa revealing they considered the term "serendipity" their favorite word. They discovered it while watching a quiz show together, which perfectly encapsulated their unexpected love story.
Siwa confirmed their relationship during a June 2 interview, stating, “It’s not platonic anymore, and it’s been a beautiful development.” A recent social media post by Hughes, featuring a cuddly selfie of the couple, sparked rumors that their friendship had evolved into something deeper.
As Siwa and Hughes embark on this new chapter, both express excitement about their connection, marking a significant moment in their lives after their time in the reality spotlight.
