Chris Hughes JoJo Siwa get intimate: Full saga explained with Kath Ebbs and Celebrity Big Brother fallout
JoJo Siwa's stint on Celebrity Big Brother 2025 proved dramatic not only for reality television but for her personal life, ending with a public breakup, a surge of speculation about a new romance, and renewed discussion about her sexual identity. The American performer and former Dance Moms star, 22, became unexpectedly close to British reality TV personality Chris Hughes, 32, during their time on the show. This relationship coincided with Siwa's split from her then-partner, Australian DJ and podcaster Kath Ebbs, 27. Hughes, best known for appearing in the third season of Love Island UK, had previously dated singer Jesy Nelson and participated in several reality formats. His connection with Siwa gained public attention after he defended her against homophobic remarks made by fellow housemate Mickey Rourke, who was later removed from the show following a verbal altercation. From that point on, Siwa and Hughes were seen frequently together in intimate, though non-explicit, moments. Siwa crawled into Hughes's bed, they spooned during nightly chats, and exchanged forehead kisses — all while cameras rolled. 'Why didn't you dream about me then?' Siwa quipped at one point, after Hughes confessed he missed her while sleeping. On screen, Siwa also made a significant personal revelation about her identity. Speaking to fellow housemate Danny Beard, she said, 'I've always told myself I'm a lesbian... I've realised: Oh, I'm not a lesbian, I'm queer.' Siwa added, 'F--- the L, I'm going to the Q.' Shortly after the show ended, Ebbs posted a lengthy Instagram Reel revealing that Siwa ended their relationship during the wrap party. 'I was in a complete state of shock,' Ebbs said, noting the relationship had been serious enough that Siwa had spoken about marriage. Ebbs said they felt 'betrayed' and described watching Siwa's interactions with Hughes on television as 'unsettling.' Responding on This Morning, Siwa and Hughes said their bond was intense but platonic. 'You can have a soulmate friendship,' Hughes said. Siwa confirmed the breakup but explained that it occurred after an unplanned conversation during the wrap party. 'I wasn't happy,' she admitted. Though neither party has officially confirmed a romantic relationship, speculation has intensified. On 1 June, Hughes shared Instagram photos of a 'spa and Dr Mario night' with Siwa's father, Tom Siwa. Meanwhile, Siwa's mother, Jessalynn, uploaded footage showing her daughter cuddling and kissing Hughes on the head during a family game night. Both Hughes and Siwa posted 'photo dumps' to social media showing them looking increasingly comfortable together, further fuelling dating rumours. JoJo Siwa's boyfriend, Chris Hughes, shared a new photo of them in bed. This comes after JoJo Siwa recently revealed that she no longer identifies as a lesbian 👀 — FearBuck (@FearedBuck) June 1, 2025 Siwa also marked the beginning of Pride Month with a heartfelt Instagram message. 'What I have learned over the last 22 years is that pride is all about love, acceptance, and celebration,' she wrote. While the exact nature of Siwa and Hughes's relationship remains unclear, their evolving bond — broadcast to millions — has prompted open discussions around friendship, identity, and the often-complicated overlap between public and private life in the reality television age.

Cardi B confirms romance with Stefon Diggs on Instagram amid divorce from Offset
Cardi B has officially confirmed her relationship with NFL wide receiver Stefon Diggs via Instagram, sharing an intimate carousel of their Memorial Day celebration on a yacht in Miami. The couple, who have been linked since February after being seen together in New York and spending Valentine's Day side by side, appeared affectionate in a photo lounging on the yacht's deck. The post also included images of romantic gifts, such as bouquets of red roses and large teddy bears, suggesting a deepening connection between the Grammy-winning artist and the New England Patriots player. Cardi captioned the post 'Chapter 5 ……Hello Chapter six,' hinting at a new phase in her life as she navigates a public and contentious divorce from rapper Offset. Despite earlier reports last week claiming Cardi was upset with Diggs for allegedly flirting with bikini-clad women during the same yacht gathering, their latest Instagram update suggests the pair are on solid ground. This relationship milestone marks their first official confirmation following several months of speculation, including a courtside appearance together at Madison Square Garden during the NBA playoffs.

Nisho's note for Rambo
When veteran actor Nisho (also affectionately known as Nisho Jee) takes the stage, expect fireworks, flair, and maybe even a little family poetry. Appearing on a local chat show on DAY, the Rangeela icon lit up the studio with a delightful tribute to son-in-law and actor Jan Rambo. Rambo, born Afzal Khan, rose to fame with '90s action-comedy films and tied the knot with Sahiba, Nisho's daughter and fellow film star, in 1998. Still going strong, the couple has raised two sons. In the middle of the segment, Nisho playfully launched into a couplet that had the audience roaring with laughter, and then sighing with admiration. With her signature flair, she described the curious evolution of Pakistani sons-in-law: "Neechi nazrein aur phool sa lehja, har khata se yeh paak hotay hain / Joon he shaadi ho aur banein damaad, bohot khaufnaak hotay hain." As the room erupted in response, Nisho clarified that this was not a cheeky dig at Rambo. "There is no need to praise my son-in-law. Everyone already knows Jan Rambo!" She furthered on, "When daughters marry men like him, their futures are nothing short of radiant." Clips from the show quickly went viral, with many calling it "the mother-in-law moment of the year." In the same interview, she revealed that suitors still propose to her but added, "Men are disloyal; they're often after a woman's money." She clarified, "Not all, but some." While her contemporaries like Sangeeta, Bushra Ansari, and Samina Ahmed married, she said she won't. "I was foolish about love and marriage when I was young. Now, I have wisdom," she said, laughing, a moment that made everyone else laugh too. Tensions once brewed between the actor and her son-in-law, particularly when Rambo reunited Sahiba with her estranged father after decades. This act of love, though complicated, led to a moment Sahiba would never forget. In March 2024, she met her biological father, Inam Rabbani, for the very first time, an emotional reunion captured in a video on her YouTube channel. Clips circulating online showed tearful embraces, hesitant confessions, and a father overwhelmed by guilt and gratitude. After 42 years of silence, Rabbani told Sahiba he had held on just to apologise before he died. Sahiba, moved by his remorse, chose to forgive him. While she expressed lingering fears of abandonment, she listened as he acknowledged Rambo as a good husband.
