CHRIS Hughes made a surprise dash across the Atlantic to join JoJo Siwa as romance rumours rumble on.
The former Love Island star, 32, sent fans into meltdown after posting a very cosy snap of JoJo, sprawled across him on a sofa in Mexico City.

But it’s understood Chris was just making sure he didn’t miss her 22nd birthday which lands today.
A source spilled: “Chris didn’t want to wait, he wanted to be there for her birthday.
“That’s what this was all about. It was important to him. It’s her birthday on May 19 so they’ll be spending it together.
“They’ll also have more privacy in Mexico and she would have missed him if he wasn’t there.
“He could’ve waited until she landed in the UK for the next leg of her tour later this month but they wanted to be able to catch up away from prying eyes.”
She is due on stage at Colours Hoxton in London on May 26.
The pair struck up a close friendship in the Celebrity Big Brother house, and have been dodging romance rumours for weeks.
Their bond has sent social media into overdrive, with fans pouring over every detail including a silver chain around JoJo’s neck, holding a ring said to have been gifted by Chris himself.
Chris’s decision to jet out to Mexico despite JoJo being scheduled to land in London within days only added fuel to the fire.
He was given the five star treatment at her concert – and was one of the first people waiting for her when she came off stage.
A cosy snap of the reunion also showed JoJo lying on top of Chris, grinning as they stared into each others’ eyes.
It has been widely labelled a “hard launch”, a term used online when celebs finally go public with their partners. However, JoJo has always insisted their friendship is platonic.
JoJo was in a relationship with Australian influencer Kath Ebbs when she met Chris in the CBB house and swiftly dumped at the show’s wrap party within hours of leaving the house.
She’s since spoken about her closeness to Chris numerous times, making no secret of how much she’s missed him.
She said they hit it off when he stuck up for her in the CBB house over Mickey Rourke’s derogartory slurs.
JoJo Siwa and Kath Ebbs' relationship
We look back at JoJo Siwa's romance with Kath Ebbs:
JoJo Siwa went public with hers and Kath Ebbs’ relationship in January 2025.
The Dance Moms star had been introduced to 27-year-old Australian content creator Kath by a mutual friend called G-Flip six months earlier.
JoJo had split with her girlfriend Dakayla Wilson in November 2024 and it is believed she hooked up romantically with Kath soon after.
Speaking in March at the 36th Annual GLAAD Media Awards, JoJo said of her relationship: “I am so happy. I am in a very mature relationship, and it’s beautiful. It’s taught me so much about life.
“It’s taught me so much about love and respect, and it’s a beautiful thing.
“It’s different in more ways than I can count. I wouldn’t even know what to say the biggest is ‘cause just everything is so different and special.”
Kath even claimed they had talked about marriage together.
However, JoJo’s romance with Kath abruptly hit the skids on April 25, 2025, at the Celebrity Big Brother wrap party.
JoJo dumped Kath at the bash after spending 19 days in the CBB house – where she had grown close to Love Island star Chris Hughes.
She told The Useless Hotline podcast: “We’re very similar in our energy, outlook on life.
“We both just want to have fun in life … It’s very chilling. What made it so special was Chris was there for me at my lowest times, and I was there for him in his lowest times.
“He actually stood up and explained (to Mickey Rourke)… to do that on day two. You don’t know that that was really hurtful, he offered to swap the beds … that showed Chris’ true personality and it was beautiful to see.
“He’s such a great gentleman he is also just hilarious.”
Asked if he was flirting with her in the CBB house, JoJo said: “All playful banter, we have a playful banter.”
In another press interview to promote her toyr, she said: “That man has changed my life, and I will stand my feet on the ground and I will say that …
“And I’m grateful that I don’t have to live a life without him now. I don’t know. He’s just Christopher.”
JoJo shot to fame on Dance Moms before carving out a massive music and YouTube career.
She began dating Kath, 27, last year and Kath revealed they were in “complete shock” and felt “numbed out and humiliated” by being dumped.
