Chris Hughes, 32, just offered fans the most intimate glimpse yet into his rumored romance with JoJo Siwa, 22.
On June 1, 2025, the former Love Island star took to his Snapchat to share a cozy snap of himself and JoJo cuddled up in bed, only adding more fuel to the ongoing dating speculation.
In the dimly lit selfie, the two lay close under a white striped blanket, both appearing shirtless with their torsos partially covered.
Chris had one arm wrapped around the Karma singer, gently resting on her head, while she nestled into his chest with her eyes closed and an arm draped across him.
He also planted a soft kiss on her forehead and captioned the snap,
“Sleeepinnn beauty”.

Chris And JoJo Take Things To The Next Level With Her Family
Shortly after posting the loved-up snap, the British TV host shared a short video clip of the rumored couple on his Instagram Stories.
Hughes is currently spending time with JoJo’s parents, Jessalynn Siwa and Tom Siwa. In the clip, filmed by JoJo’s mom, the Dance Moms alum is seen sitting close to Chris on a living room sofa during a cozy family game night.
At one point, Siwa gently grabbed Chris’ head and planted a soft kiss on the back of it, making the moment even more intimate.
Moreover, it seems Hughes has already won over Jessalynn and Tom. In an interview on Channel 4’s Sunday Brunch, on June 1, 2025, JoJo revealed,
“My parents think the absolute world of him and he and my dad are like best friends. Chris was actually telling me that yesterday they went to the spa together. They’re literally best friends”.
These cryptic social media posts and cozy family moments come just days after JoJo publicly denied being romantically involved with Chris.
During a May 26, 2025 appearance on ITV’s Lorraine, host Andi Peters asked if the two were dating. JoJo replied candidly,
“No. Christopher and I have had a lot of chats. But we’ve never gone into the kitchen and have that version of the talk. Chris is doing the furthest thing besides letting us down. He couldn’t let me down even if he tried to… He’s the best man”.
Earlier, on May 22, 2025, the rumored couple was caught on camera sharing a passionate kiss while vacationing at an adults-only resort in Mexico, celebrating the Boomerang singer’s 22nd birthday.

A few days later, on May 25, Siwa touched down at London’s Heathrow Airport ahead of her concert in the U.K. To her surprise, Chris was there waiting with a huge bouquet of red and pink roses.
Paparazzi captured the Big Brother UK co-stars reuniting with warm hugs and radiant smiles. In one photo, they even appeared to share a kiss, though the giant bouquet perfectly obscured the moment.
