Celebrity relationships continue to captivate audiences, and the latest buzz surrounds JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes, who recently exchanged heartfelt tributes on social media. This public display of affection coincides with news of Siwa’s ex-partner, Kath Ebbs, also entering a new romance, adding layers of intrigue to the unfolding celebrity narrative.
The connection between JoJo Siwa, 22, and Chris Hughes, 32, blossomed during their time as co-stars on a popular reality television show in April. Their on-screen chemistry quickly translated into an off-screen bond, drawing significant attention from fans and media alike.
Following their show stint, it was reported that Siwa had parted ways with her then-partner, Kath Ebbs, 27, at the show’s afterparty. Since then, JoJo has openly shared updates on her burgeoning relationship with Chris, keeping her followers engaged with their journey.
In recent months, the couple has frequently offered glimpses into their shared life, with a recent tease suggesting that singer JoJo has officially become the former reality star’s ‘girlfriend,’ a development eagerly awaited by their respective fan bases.
Their blossoming romance was notably highlighted during National Girlfriends Day, a celebration often observed for friendships but increasingly embraced by romantic couples. Chris Hughes took to social media, sharing an intimate photo of the pair cozied up, accompanied by the tender caption: “This is my GF.”
Adding to the public declaration, Chris shared a series of posts on the platform for the occasion, featuring multiple photos of him and JoJo. Alongside one particular image, he penned another affectionate caption, declaring her “my universe,” further cementing their relationship in the public eye.
JoJo Siwa herself commemorated the occasion on social media. She posted a photo of Chris affectionately cuddling her on a sofa, accompanied by her grateful words: “Happy national girlfriends Day to me. Lucky lucky girl I am,” underscoring her happiness in the new partnership.
These romantic posts emerged shortly after JoJo’s ex-partner, Kath Ebbs, revealed their own new relationship on Thursday. Ebbs confirmed their romance with Tilly Lucas-Rodd, 29, an AFL Women’s division player, sharing a loved-up photobooth image on Instagram, accompanied by a caption reflecting on love.
Significantly, Kath’s caption included a line that many interpreted as a subtle “swipe” aimed at their past relationship with JoJo. Their statement, “The rumours are true! YES I still (stupidly) believe in love!!”, hinted at lingering feelings or past experiences, reigniting discussions among fans about the complexities of celebrity breakups and new beginnings.
