Wanting to show off their romance, Chris recently posted a series of loved-up snaps with JoJo to his Instagram account.
The carousel of photos included them gazing lovingly at each other, sharing kisses, lounging at home, playing sports including tennis and golf, spending time with family, and soaking up some sun poolside.
Chris captioned the post: "Just everything. Missing you," and added a series of emojis, including a white love heart.
While Chris received mainly positive comments from his 2.2 million followers, other people were not so kind, but the TV star did not shy away from standing up for himself.
One troll named Pauline wrote: "Does anybody else find this creepy," to which Chris responded, "No Pauline, you're miserable, p**s off kindly," and she retorted, "lol we see long it lasts."
Christ wrote back to her: "Yeah again, you don't need to speak, you don't follow me, respectfully do one thank you."
But the trolling did not end there with another hater named Liz writing: "Mate sort yourself out. You would do anything for fame," and a fan of Chris stepped in to defend him: "Oh Liz, imagine hating someone who's just living and happy. Misery aren't you."
Liz replied: "I don't hate anybody sweetheart I just live in the real world," and Chris responded to her, "the real world! online bullies are the real world apparently."
The experience of online trolling and bullying were very common for the famous pair and could trigger intense emotions, as was proved recently when Chris accidentally triggered memories of abuse from bullies for Jojo.
The singer took to Instagram to share a video of the pair as she said: 'I'm drying my hair right now and he goes, 'You have a really good hairline'.'

As the two laughed, Chris added: 'You do have a good hairline, I don't get what's making you laugh.'
JoJo said: 'No, it's making me cry, that's the number one thing I was bullied for as a kid.'
As Chris comforted his girlfriend, she opened up: 'That's destroyed me over the years and you've just said it out of literal nowhere and it was really nice.'
The Love Island star proceeded to wipe JoJo's tears from her face with a tissue as the couple hugged in a sweet embrace.
JoJo previously revealed she experienced a stress rash as a child, which caused hair loss on one side of her head.
This was made worse by the tight hairstyles she wore for dance performances, with the Dance Moms star being known for her signature ponytail.

Humiliated Michelle Bridges admits she was stood up on her first date in FIVE years as she shares mortifying ordeal
Michelle Bridges has been left humiliated after being stood up on her first date in five years. The celebrity fitness trainer, 54, who has been living the single life following her split from Steve 'Commando' Willis in 2020, recalled the mortifying experience in an Instagram Story post on Thursday. 'Sharing for my single ladies,' the mother-of-one wrote alongside a photo of herself in the car on the way home. 'I went on a first date tonight. The FIRST date I've had in 5.5 years. (I looked frickin hot btw). And I got stood up,' she continued. 'Met someone who said 'you look lost, can I help you?' (So sweet and very handsome). We sat for 2 hours and chatted and laughed. He's like way too young but at this point who cares!' 'What a start??!!? Who does that???' the frustrated fitness guru lamented, before noting that the tale was however: 'Great content!!!' It comes two months after Michelle revealed that she has not been in a relationship since her high-profile split from Steve. The admission came when Michelle was commenting on a post from influencer Abbie Chatfield. In it, Abbie was telling followers not to waste their time with men who 'feel threatened' by women recognising the patriarchy. 'If they are threatened, you are signing yourself up for time wasted trying to make yourself smaller for HIS comfort,' Abbie captioned her video. 'You would rather NOT be picked than be picked by a man who sees you as less than.' Jumping into the comments, Michelle revealed that she was enjoying her years of singledom. '5yrs of being with me. Best years of my life,' Michelle wrote, augmenting the admission with a love heart emoji. The comment resonated with Abbie's followers, with many replying in support of the fitness maven. 'Same here, high five,' one responded, while another jumped in with a similar: 'This is everything.' A third added: 'Yes!! 8 years for I can't wait for 8 more!!' It was a sentiment Michelle echoed to Who magazine in 2024, admitting that a relationship was not on her radar. 'I just feel very independent and I really like it, and no, I'm not looking for love. At all. I haven't been able to date in four-and-a-half-years. I'm good with that,' she said. 'I feel empowered by being independent. It's the longest I've been on my own, and I don't plan on changing that any time soon.' Michelle and Steve debuted their romance on the red carpet in May 2013, shortly after announcing splits from their respective partners at the time. They welcomed their son Axel in December 2015 and later announced their split in 2020, the same year Michelle was convicted for drunk driving. Michelle blew 0.086 when she was pulled over in her Range Rover with Axel in the car at about 11.25am on Australia Day 2020. In 2021, the former Biggest Loser star told Good Weekend magazine she suffered her fair share of 'dark' days following her split from Steve. 'I felt very alone,' she said. 'To be honest, it was the hardest time of my life, ever, leading up to what happened. I felt like I was in a fog, and I didn't know what was happening.'
