JoJo Siwa plays coy as she’s quizzed on being caught kissing Chris Hughes
They keep growing closer.
JoJo Siwa has become all bashful after being caught smooching Chris Hughes.
The 22-year-old Dance Moms star met Chris, 32, on the latest series of ITV’s Celebrity Big Brother, forming a strong connection almost immediately after entering the house.
JoJo and Chris were often seen cuddling in bed, sharing back scratches, or having deep conversations, but insisted upon their exits after the final that it was ‘platonic’.
However, since reuniting after three long weeks apart, their so-called friendship appears to have gone up a gear.
Earlier this week, the TikTok sensation was photographed kissing former Love Island star Chris on the lips.
While chilling in the pool at an adults-only hotel in Mexico, neither JoJo nor Chris seemed to care for their surroundings, allowing The Sun to publish a snap of their peck.

Now, after days of silence, JoJo has finally addressed the situation.
Speaking to NBC TV, JoJo hailed her CBB experience as ‘the best thing I have ever done’.
When probed on being caught in the act with Chris, she laughed: ‘It was funny to see that on camera.’
JoJo has a show next week in London and then has a month-long tour to complete in the United States, where her shows will consist of dancing, entertaining, and, of course, singing hits like Karma.
When asked whether Chris would be joining her on the road, she said: ‘I mean, he will be my guest.

‘Right before I went in, the last thing I told my mom is, I said, “Mom, I think this is going to be the best thing I’ve ever done in my life.”
‘And I wasn’t speaking about my career, I was speaking about my life, and I think I was accurate on that.’

In recent days, both TV personalities have shared snaps on Instagram from their reunion, showing them getting cosy on the sofa and even shedding tears when they had to part ways again.
Their combined millions of followers soon picked up on the vibe, taking to the comments to ask if it was a ‘hard launch’.
While Chris is known to have been single upon starting his CBB journey, JoJo was dating Australian singer Kath Ebbs when she entered the house.
However, things got messy at the wrap party when the 27-year-old was ‘dumped’ by JoJo, leaving them ‘humiliated’.

She explained that originally, Kath had said they didn’t want to attend the afterparty, but then did at the last minute.
Kath asked JoJo if she was ‘happy,’ and, after weeks of pondering her situation within the walls of the CBB abode, JoJo told them that she wasn’t.
They had been dating since January, with Kath flying over from Aus to meet JoJo after CBB ended.
