JoJo, 21 - who fled the UK wearing her co-star and "soulmate" Chris Hughes' clothes - had switched up from his grey hoodie.
Yet, after their blossoming connection in the Celebrity Big Brother house, which left viewers confused over their seemingly "flirty" behaviour, she kept Love Island alum Chris' neon wool hat firmly on.
She pulled on a pair of sunglasses and threw a rucksack over her shoulders as she wheeled two suitcases through the terminal.
Her mum Jessalyn, 50, strolled ahead as they prepared to head home.

Yet one person who wasn't on-hand to welcome JoJo was her former partner Kath Ebbs.
Kath, 27, revealed they had been dumped by the Dance Moms alum during the wrap party for the ITV reality series.
It came despite the fact the pair had been "discussing marriage" - with Kath's best pal then sticking in the knife on the real reason for JoJo's decision.
Taking to Instagram on Saturday, Australian content creator Kath, said they were in "complete shock" and felt "numbed out and humiliated" after being dumped by JoJo.

A day later, Kath was pictured for the first time since the split.
They had told how dancer JoJo had "fallen in love" with the Love Island alum during their time in the compound.

After posing a video all about their break-up, one fan of Kath's commented on their clip to say: "Imagine watching your partner fall in love with someone else in real time. Cannot even begin to fathom that."
Appearing to confirm that this is exactly how they were feeling, Kath, who identifies as non-binary, liked the comment in question.

It is the most telling sign yet that Kath has been negatively affected by JoJo's bond with Chris.
OPENING UP
Yet now JoJo has clarified the pair's relationship status in an interview on Monday's This Morning.
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.
Speaking about where Chris and JoJo go from here, regarding their "close" friendship, Chris said they have a "really strong bond" - calling it a "soulmate friendship".
Chris said: "Our friendship, it's hard to explain... it's just a really strong bond between two people, it's just a strong friendship.

"I think you can have a soulmate friendship, that's the thing.
"To me, it's that energy when it's not the standard friendship you have with your friends, but it's still a friendship, we are friends.
"It's nice, I found it strange because it was such a strong friendship.
"Having someone in there to go through an experience like that and have someone there everyday when you're emotional, when you're happy... that was beautiful, that was genuinely an amazing thing."

Ben then grilled the pair and asked if it was just "platonic" or if it could develop into something "romantic".
JoJo laughed and said: "He's a gorgeous boy, look, he's a great guy, it is platonic, we have a lot of fun together.
Life is life and I don't know any future of anything but I'm really grateful for the dynamic that we have and the bond that we have.
"Whatever life does, life will do."

Chris was later forced to defend what some deemed his "creepy" age gap with JoJo following their cosy display on a post-show night out.
This followed their intimate displays in the spy house, which saw JoJo and Chris secretly hold hands in the bedroom.
Chris then asked JoJo to lick his shorts in a move some found bizarre while he also stripped naked in front of the actress before heading for an off-camera chat.
Chris even offered to have JoJo's babies in another shock remark.

Elizabeth Hurley, 60, strips down to birthday suit and confesses she's 'in love'

Elizabeth Hurley has celebrated turning 60 in style by sharing a cheeky picture in just her birthday suit, confessing she is 'in love'. In her Instagram post, the Austin Powers icon hinted at a 'wild ride' year, which included hard launching her relationship with Billy Ray Cyrus, 63. The pair shocked the world by posting a picture of them kissing on Instagram after meeting on the set of the 2022 film Christmas in Paradise. Weeks later, they were loved up in Rome, walking arm in arm at a Valentino event so things seem to be going strong so far with the famous duo. There was no direct mention of the Achy Breaky Heart hitmaker in her birthday post as Elizabeth stripped down for her 60th — but there was a subtle message to him. 'Happy birthday to me!' Liz captioned the snap on her social media, a sentiment echoed by her friends and family in the comments. She continued: 'This year has already been a wild ride; my 30th year of working with the Estée Lauder Companies, my 30th year as the Global Ambassador of the @esteelaudercompanies Breast Cancer Campaign, the 20th anniversary of @elizabethhurleybeach.' Somewhat casually, the model then revealed she is 'in love', which was followed by plenty of heart emojis. Presumably, she means in love with Billy Ray, who she went official with in April after his split with ex-wife Firerose, 36. 'Feeling very blessed and grateful for having the best friends & family in the world,' Liz said before casually adding: 'Pic taken this afternoon… in my birthday suit xxx.' Over on his Instagram, Billy Ray wished happy birthday to 'the love of my life ❤️' and shared a snap of them together. Liz responded with heart reactions, meanwhile, on her post birthday wishes flooded in from famous faces such as Sarah Michelle Gellar and Richard E. Grant. Her son Damian, 23, wrote: 'Hahahah I LOVE YOU ♥️♥️♥️ happy birthday mama xxx.' 'Congratulations beautiful smart funny Elizabeth ❤️ Wishing you the best birthday. Love you 🥳❤️😘,' added Heidi Klum. Actress Patsy Kensit, 57, penned: 'To my dearest wonderful friend for nearly 30 years …. So privileged to be spending your birthday with you and your glorious family… I never want to leave I have had the best day celebrating you.. 'Your the most beautiful kind human being and I will always love you forever… thank you for including me today and making magical memories and see you with your true love Billy who is so fabulous I'm so happy for you both and aunt ratticus loved her time with my gorgeous nephew D… one of the most special days I've had in a very long time. I love you ratticus rat ❤️❤️. [sic]' Liz and Billy Ray have not publicly spoken about their romance but a source confirmed to People Magazine she reached out after their film together. They said: 'Liz is great and visited him for Easter. They've been seeing each other romantically for a little bit. 'And how lucky is he? Liz is lovely. She's very warm, positive and the best to be around.' More Trending Billy Ray was previously married to Cindy Smith from 1986 to 1991, and then Tish Cyrus from 1993 to 2022, with whom he shares five kids, including Grammy-winning pop star Miley Cyrus, 32. Liz was previously married to Indian entrepreneur and businessman Arun Nayar from 2007 to 2010, and shared son Damian, 23, with late American businessman Steve Bing. She also had high-profile relationships with actor Hugh Grant – for 13 years – and cricket star Shane Warne, to whom she was engaged between 2011 and 2013 before amicably parting ways ahead of his death aged 52 in March 2022.

Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 2 Wynne Evans has got engaged to his partner Liz Credit: Instagram 2 The singer shared his happy news with fans Credit: Instagram The happy couple are expected to wed next year. Wynne shared snaps of the happy occasion and told fans: "Big news… I got engaged! "This weekend in Morocco, somewhere between the couscous, the camels, and me limping around the souks like a man with no spatial awareness, I proposed to Liz — and she said yes! (No take-backs, I've checked.) "She's clever, she's kind, she's got excellent taste in men. Absolutely no idea how I pulled that off, but here we are! "Feeling very lucky, very happy, and just a tiny bit smug." A source told The Sun: "It has been a tumultuous six months for Wynne but Liz has been his absolute rock throughout. "Finally some wonderful news for Wynne and his inner circle to celibate and everyone is chuffed for them both. "He secretly bought an engagement ring and squirrelled it away for their holiday, and then popped the question over champagne. "Liz has been incredible over the past few months, supporting him through thick and thin, and had his back throughout, but obviously Wynne is telling everyone she's a lucky girl!" Liz, 50, who runs her own successful events company in Cardiff, met the star at one of her do's in Wales. He asked her out for a coffee the next day, and they have been together for the past 18 months. Wynne Evans confirms he's been AXED by the BBC after probe as he shares emotional statement News of the engagement comes after the BBC confirmed it would not be renewing the Go Compare frontman's rolling contract. It followed a protracted internal investigation into claims he used an inappropriate sexual term at the official photocall of the Strictly tour in January. Wynne was previously married to wife of 16 years, Tanwen, with whom he has two kids. They divorced in 2016 which, he later revealed, saw his mental health plummet and left him feeling suicidal. Wynne, who was partnered with Katya Jones on Strictly, was seen being cheered on by Liz in the audience. Speaking about his disappointment about being dropped by the Beeb, the 2023 Celebrity Masterchef winner said: 'My beloved Wynners, From the very depths of my heart — thank you. 'These past few months, your love has been the light in my darkest days. Every message, every word of encouragement, every moment you stood by me has carried me through more than you could ever know. 'It breaks my heart to say the BBC has decided not to renew my contract so I won't be returning to my radio show. I'm gutted.' Wynne has now copyrighted his name and will be launching his own radio show.
