JoJo Siwa has finally addressed her love life, revealing her otherwise private relationship status.
In an exclusive appearance at the Rhode Island Comic Con panel on November 1, 2024, JoJo opened up about her feelings for her girlfriend, Dakayla Wilson.
Revealing that they started dating just three months ago, the dancer and singer shared why her romance with Dakayla feels different and what gave her the courage to go public with this new relationship. She shared,
“I got into a relationship with an incredible girl… I was OK to go public with her. She feels special and we’re in a very comfortable place. I’ve never really been in this place that I’m at with her in a relationship before”.
Emphasizing the challenges of dating at a young age, with JoJo being 21 and Wilson 19, the Karma singer opened up how she’s navigating her new love life.
She shared that the love they have for each other serves as the foundation keeping their romance strong. She said,
“I’m also so young… We’re both still figuring life out and I think I accepted that. I’ve accepted we’re both figuring life out. We’re not perfect, but we have fun. I love the girl. She loves me and we’re having a good time”.
JoJo Siwa Shares Why She Kept Her Previous Relationships Private
Reflecting on her past romances, the dancer explained why she kept most of her love life under wraps. Crediting her mother’s advice and recounting a bitter experience in a past public relationship, she shared,
“My mom always used to tell me, The whole world doesn’t need to know everything JoJo. You can keep some things a secret… I had a public relationship with somebody else that wasn’t the best… And then, after it ended, it was really not the best. It just scared me from sharing relationships publicly”.
Before dating the So You Think You Can Dance alum, Siwa shared her relationship deal-breaker in a video interview with Cosmopolitan magazine, published on July 15, 2024. She revealed her non-negotiable rule that she wants three children in total. She shared,
“That is something I talk about very early on with partners. I am like – Just so you know, there are three children… I will have as many more as you want… And they will be here in three years, whether you like it or not”.
JoJo Siwa and Dakayla Wilson went public with their relationship in August 2024, when JoJo first debuted their relationship on her Instagram Stories. Since then, the couple has frequently posted each other on their social media, giving fans a glimpse into their budding romance.
