Chris Hughes has finally spoken out about his relationship with JoJo Siwa on Celebrity Big Brother. The pair have a very good bond with one another, fuelling speculation of romantic feelings between the duo.
The Love Island star and the singer have become great friends during their time on the show and interest about their friendship has grown after she was seen writing something on his hand. It led to a rule break and they were both punished.
Now Chris has opened up about his friendship with JoJo Siwa on Celebrity Big Brother, describing her as his person.
Speaking on Celebrity Big Brother last night, he admitted he would be “crushed” if she ever left. He said: “If she left the house ever and I’d be stuck in here that would genuinely be crushed. I guess she’s like my person in here. When you walk into a party you don’t know anyone, there’s someone you want to see in the room that makes you want to feel at ease.
“It makes me feel happy it makes me feel comfortable and it allows me to be me, it really brings out me, I like me, I like being me and I’ll always be me and it takes someone to get you. We’re like two peas in a pod.”
JoJo Siwa was left fuming over a ‘snub’ by Chris in a recent episode – when he chose to share a Chinese takeaway with David Platt star Jack P Shepherd. The Coronation Street actor was up for eviction and Chris felt it was right to share the food with Jack instead.
Big Brother said: “Chris, as an extra special treat, Big Brother will allow you to choose a housemate to share your takeaway with.”
“Oh my god. Obviously, I want to choose JoJo. As an American I want her to enjoy a proper f***ing British Chinese, you know. I kinda wanna have it with Jack though, cause it might be his last night.,” Chris then replied.
Big Brother then quipped: “Chris, you are not negotiating the Treaty of Versailles here. Just pick someone to have a Chinese meal with.”
Last night, Chris defended himself to JoJo for his decision and seemingly called her his girlfriend.
“Do you know what that is like? That was like having a spare ticket to a football match and your girlfriend going ‘oh I wanna come’. But you know deep down if you take your girlfriend your mates are going to batter you,” he said, as she replied: “I’m not your girlfriend.”
