JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes share loved-up posts as her ex takes a swipe amid new romance
Former Celebrity Big Brother co-stars Chris Hughes and JoJo Siwa paid tribute to each other in posts shared this week. It comes after the dancer's ex-partner Kath Ebbs went public with their own new romance just a few days ago.
JoJo, 22, and Chris, 32, grew close whilst on the reality TV show in April. It was later announced that she had dumped her partner Kath, 27, at the afterparty and JoJo has kept fans updated on her relationship with Chris since then.
The couple have given fans insights into their life together in recent months and this week teased that singer JoJo is now officially the former Love Island star's 'girlfriend'. It comes after Helen Skelton and Gethin Jones split as he joins a notorious dating app on a lads' holiday.
JoJo and her partner posted about their relationship yesterday to mark National Girlfriends Day, which is said to be about friendship, but is also considered by some to be a holiday for couples and romantic relationships. Chris shared a photo on Instagram that showed them cosied up together, with him writing in the caption of the post: "This is my GF."
Chris shared a series of posts on Snapchat for the occasion too, including him having uploaded several photos of the pair together. Alongside one of the photos, he wrote in a caption: "National GF day so here so is, my universe."
JoJo also celebrated the occasion on social media. Over a photo of Chris cuddled up with her on a sofa, she wrote in a post on Instagram earlier this week: "Happy national girlfriends Day to me." She added: "Lucky lucky girl I am."
The posts comes after JoJo's ex-partner Kath went public with their own new relationship on Thursday. They revealed on Instagram that morning that they are now dating Tilly Lucas-Rodd, 29, following their split from JoJo back in April.
Kath looked loved-up with Tilly, who plays in the AFL Women's division of the Australian Football League, in a photo that showed them in a photobooth. It was shared by Kath on the platform alongside a caption about love.
Alongside the photo, Kath seemed to take a swipe over their experience dating JoJo. In the caption that accompanied the photo two days ago, they wrote to their followers: "The rumours are true! YES I still (stupidly) believe in love!!"
Kath's post has now amassed almost 20,000 likes on the platform and fans shared excitement in the comments section. One person wrote: "Ah yes! Things we love to see!" Another said: "The happy ending you deserve (and we all wanted!)."
The news comes just months after Kath announced that JoJo had dumped them at a Celebrity Big Brother afterparty in April. Kath said: "I flew here and I went to the live show to show up for my partner and support them in their experience and then obviously later on address my feelings of like hurt and work through them like all relationships do."
Kath added: "[I] was dumped in the party. I was told that there are confused feelings there - do with that what you will - and that they realised in the house that I wasn't the person that they wanted to spend the foreseeable [with]."
JoJo addressed the situation on This Morning shortly afterwards, saying: "That was not a plan. That was not an intention. That was not supposed to happen like that. Initially I was told that y'know the wrap party was something they didn't want to attend."
She added: "Then about an hour into the wrap party they decided they wanted to. And so I was genuinely just gonna have a conversation before and then it just led to another. They straight up asked me if I was happy and I said no. And one thing led to another and that conversation did take place there."

Miley Cyrus goes totally nude and reveals massive rib tattoo on Perfect magazine cover
MILEY Cyrus has gone totally nude and revealed her massive rib tattoo on the Perfect magazine cover. Superstar Miley, 32, drove fans wild with her latest project as she shared the image on Instagram. 5 5 Perfect Magazine posted the image on Instagram and captioned it: "3 days with Miley. An 80 page special edition zine photographed by Paolo Roversi and Lynette Garland. "Styled by Katie Grand. A fashion epic (starting with no fashion). An instant classic. Cover 1/6. "Pre order now, link in bio, shipping 11th August." Miley looked sensational in the stylish black and white image with her flowing locks hanging loose over one shoulder. As she stared moodily at the camera, the stunning singer covered her modesty with an outstretched arm. She also showed off her magnificent dream catcher tattoo that she's had since 2011. Fans flocked to the comments section calling the superstar an icon and praising the image. And one fan wrote: "The woman you are!!! We love you Miley." Another added: "The Power of this woman." A third said: "OMG she broke the internet again." While another said: "Oh my goodness, are we back at the nakedness again. "I was so ready for her to shed all of that and focus on her talent… And be taken seriously. "Sorry guys I'm just not as impressed as you are." Miley revealed a few months ago that she was dashed to hospital after filming for her music video caused a shock illness. She explained her surprise stint in intensive care caused her to develop a nasty infection, despite only shooting on the popular Hollywood Walk of Fame. In a recent interview with DJ Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1, Miley revealed she suffers from a large polyp on her vocal cords, as well as a condition called Reinke's edema - both of which make touring nearly impossible. Miley recently spoke out for the first time about speculation of a family rift after rumors of tension began circulating online. The 32-year-old singer addressed the rumors in a heartfelt statement shared to her Instagram Story, as she shut down the ongoing chatter around her mom Tish Cyrus-Purcell and her dad Billy Ray. She also addressed her relationship with her father, Billy Ray Cyrus, 62, acknowledging their complex relationship but insisting they are in a good place. In the past year, Billy Ray has found himself at the center of allegations of domestic abuse from Firerose, which he has denied. He also made headlines for a widely criticized performance at an inauguration event for former President Donald Trump, which was marred by technical issues and awkward moments. He is now dating Austin Powers actress Liz Hurley, 59. However, none of his six children including daughter Noah have liked or interacted with any of their posts together online. It comes as Miley's mom was last year accused of stealing husband Dominic Purcell from daughter Noah - and Noah was supposedly exiled from her mom's wedding. 5

James Whale: Outspoken radio host courted controversy on the airwaves
The long-serving presenter and disc jockey held shows at many of the nation's best-known stations, from the BBC to LBC and TalkRadio. His boisterous style and personable nature made him an enduring favourite among listeners, although his views sometimes landed him in trouble. Michael James Whale was born in Ewell, Surrey, on May 13 1951. He attended school in Epsom and as a teenager took up archery, becoming a Surrey junior champion. Whale soon moved to King's Cross in London where his parents ran a pub. He aspired to become an actor, but was dissuaded by his mother, and later took a DJ training course before landing his first gig at The Bird's Nest in Muswell Hill, north London. Whale's big break came in 1970 when he was hired as a launch DJ for Radio Topshop, the fashion chain's in-house radio station. During the 70s he hosted a show on Metro Radio before moving to BBC Radio Derby in 1980 to host a morning phone-in. James Whale entering the Celebrity Big Brother house (Ian West/PA) In the late 1980s, Whale became interested in US radio hosts, including 'shock jock' Howard Stern, and was deeply influenced by their style. He became better known to a national audience after moving to Radio Aire in Leeds, and his dry wit and no-nonsense approach on late-night programme The James Whale Radio Show, broadcast simultaneously on radio and TV, gained him a legion of loyal listeners. From 1995 to 2008, Whale hosted a weekday night talk show on TalkSport, featuring a varied roster of guests including musician Myleene Klass, conspiracy theorist David Icke and nightclub owner Peter Stringfellow. He was sacked from TalkSport in May 2008 after he called on listeners to vote for Boris Johnson in the London mayoral election. He subsequently hosted the drivetime show on LBC, the breakfast show on BBC Essex and later moved to TalkRadio. During the Brexit referendum campaign, Whale clashed on his TalkRadio show with a number of prominent Brexiteers, but later suggested he had changed his mind in response to the behaviour of the European Union. During his career he also hosted Whale On, Dial Midnight and Central Weekend Live for ITV, and Talk About for BBC One. His autobiography Almost A Celebrity: A Lifetime Of Night-Time was published in 2008 and he later launched a new version of The James Whale Radio Show. The veteran broadcaster also dabbled in reality television, with a stint on Celebrity Big Brother in 2016 alongside Christopher Biggins and Broadway star Frankie Grande. He was the sixth contestant to be eliminated, and left in a double eviction alongside The Only Way Is Essex's Lewis Bloor. Whale caused a stir during his time on the show, clashing with broadcaster Saira Khan after the Loose Women panellist asked him if he was racist. Khan said she had researched Whale before entering the house and had seen the claims online. He responded: 'I've never heard so much rubbish in my entire life.' He added: 'I don't think I am known for that. Am I known for that? I don't know. I really don't know. I've been one of the judges of the British curry awards for 10 years.' Whale announced in 2020 that he had been diagnosed with cancer in the kidney, spine, brain and lungs, 20 years after having a kidney removed due to a tumour. His wife Melinda, with whom he had two sons, had died two years earlier from lung cancer. Whale was made an MBE in the 2024 New Year Honours for services to broadcasting and charity. Speaking after the investiture ceremony at Windsor Castle, the broadcaster described the award as the 'pinnacle' of his career. 'It makes me feel very proud that somebody has recognised the fact that I've spent my entire life being rude to people for entertainment,' he said. 'It's a great honour at the end of your life. 'I started off at the age of 22 with my own radio show in the North East of England, thinking I'd probably have to look for a proper job in the not-too-distant future. 'And so far, touch wood, I haven't actually had to. So it's been good.'

The rock legend was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2019 and died at the age of 76 on July 22, surrounded by his family. Since his death, tributes have been pouring in from fans and friends around the world with thousands visiting the Black Sabbath Bench in the musician's home city of Birmingham to lay bouquets, wreaths, posters, balloons, candles and cards. Kelly Osbourne shared a post on Instagram (David Parry/PA) The Osbourne family visited the bench in Broad Street last Wednesday to lay their own flowers during a cortege procession. Kelly, 40, who starred in the 2000s reality series The Osbournes, shared a post on her Instagram story on Monday thanking fans for their support. She said: 'I've sat down to write this a hundred times and still don't know if the words will ever feel like enough… but from the bottom of my heart, thank you. 'The love, support, and beautiful messages I've received from so many of you have truly helped carry me through the hardest moment of my life. Every kind word, every shared memory, every bit of compassion has meant more than I can ever explain. 'Grief is a strange thing — it sneaks up on you in waves — I will not be ok for a while — but knowing my family are not alone in our pain makes a difference. Sharon Osbourne, with family members, lays flowers at the Black Sabbath Bridge in Broad Street in Birmingham in memory of Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne (Jacob King/PA) 'I'm holding on tight to the love, the light, and the legacy left behind. Thank you for being there. I love you all so much. – Kelly #BirminghamForever #OzzyForever.' On Monday, Birmingham City Council began gathering up the tributes so they can be stored before being handed over to the Osbourne family. A handful of fans watched from behind barriers, took photographs and hugged each other as officials in hi-vis jackets collected all the flowers and tributes which had been laid in front of the bench and on the railings behind it. The council said the mementos would be gathered and preserved 'respectfully' in agreement with the rock star's relatives and then stored 'with the utmost care at a secure location, ensuring they are protected and treated with dignity'. The council said: 'In due course, they will be passed on to the Osbourne family, so they may keep them as a lasting reminder of the public's affection and support.'

'These expressions of remembrance reflect the profound impact that Ozzy had on the city and its people, as well as fans from around the world – BIRMINGHAM FOREVER!'
