Finding love on a reality TV show has changed JoJo Siwa’s views on weddings.
The singer and dancer famous for shows like Dance Moms has one person to thank for that change of heart: Chris Hughes.
JoJo and Chris appeared as housemates on the latest season of Celebrity Big Brother in the UK. Chris finished sixth, with JoJo winding up in third. Since spending time together on the show, their relationship has blossomed into something serious.

Neither may have walked away with the title of Big Brother champion, but they wound up with something even more precious: love. Since their appearance on the popular reality franchise, they’ve gone from being close friends to dating.
Appearing on the podcast Reign with Josh Smith, JoJo says being with Chris has made her excited about what’s to come.
“I’m happy. I’ve never wanted the future so bad. I’ve never, ever wanted the love that I have to just continue to grow.”
She says that her outlook on marriage has changed. “I’ve never craved a wedding,” she said. “I’ve always wanted to just like go sign a piece of paper or go to Vegas ’cause I didn’t wanna have a wedding, but now I’m like, ‘No, I want a ring and I want my Dad to walk me down the aisle and I want a first dance and I want butterflies.
“It is hard because it feels like my own family has turned a little bit,” she explained. “And I think we are the LGBTQIA+ family, not the LG community and it’s a beautiful rainbow and the number one saying of the queer community is love is love,” said JoJo. JoJo revealed in January 2021 that she is a part of the LGBTQ+ community.
“And that goes both ways … just because I am in a heterosexual relationship that doesn’t discredit my past,” she went on to say.
Despite the scrutiny, JoJo insists her feelings for Chris are strong. “I think older people in the community need to realize the way that you treat me in this situation doesn’t affect me, I promise, at all. I’m very happy. I’m very loved. I give a lot of love. I’m feeling very loved. I am in a great place,” JoJo concluded.
