Overview
- JoJo Siwa posted an Instagram carousel titled "little bit of life" that included photos of her in a black bikini with boyfriend Chris Hughes, who reacted to the post with a heart; the images were shared on August 22.
- Siwa and Hughes met in the Celebrity Big Brother house in April 2025 and went public with their relationship in May 2025, and they continue to manage a U.S.–U.K. long-distance partnership.
- Tabloid reports say Hughes is being lined up to host a new Big Brother vodcast after the companion show Late & Live was reportedly axed, but those claims rely on unnamed insiders and have not been confirmed by ITV or production.
- Those same reports say the main Big Brother series is set to return for an eight-week run starting September 13, a schedule that has also been reported but not officially announced.
- JoJo has publicly discussed past struggles with body image and said competing on Special Forces changed her approach to food and fitness, while producers are said to be reshaping companion content as viewers move toward ITVX and vodcast formats.
