JoJo Siwa reveals exact moment friendship with Chris Hughes turned romantic after confirming relationship
JoJo Siwa has revealed the precise moment she fell for her new beau Chris Hughes after feelings grew between the pair in the Celebrity Big Brother house.
The love story of JoJo and Chris has been one we simply can't get enough of, after watching their friendship blossom into a relationship on the hit ITV reality show.
While it came as an unexpected coupling, the two seem more smitten than ever as JoJo has now revealed the moment they truly 'fell' for each other.
In a situation many have dubbed as controversial, the dancer, 22, was in a relationship with Kath Ebbs when she stepped into the iconic house, but swiftly called things off with them on the night of her exit from the show.

Rumours of a romance between her and the 32-year-old were rife, but it was just earlier this week that JoJo confirmed their relationship.
Speaking on Gyles Brandreth's Rosebud podcast, the Dance Moms star reflected on her transformative time in the Celebrity Big Brother house.
She said: "When he first walked in, he was the only person that I knew what they looked like before coming into the show. I was like 'Oh that's the Chris guy'.
"Initially the first thing that I took in about him was he was a good hugger. I liked his hug. That felt like a nice embrace. And he smelt good."
But the entertainer noted that their 'bond' grew closer as the weeks passed.
"It started very much so as friends," she said. "I wasn't looking to fall for him. He wasn't looking to fall for me. We just were having so much fun together."
But JoJo spilled the tea about the exact moment that the two knew it was more than just friends.
She added: "We were watching Who Wants to be a Millionaire? And the answer to the winning question was serendipity, and somebody replied 'and do you know what serendipity is, it's you and JoJo'.
"And we googled it and both of us freaked out because that was the million dollar question."
The star continued: "The word serendipity is Christopher and I's favourite word now. If you read the definition of it, it's essentially finding love when you're least looking for it.
"It's beautiful. I don't know how the universe did align for Chris to come into my life."
She shared plans for the two to get matching tattoos, and they even travelled down to the Cotswolds on Tuesday (6 June) to meet Chris' family.
JoJo confirmed their relationship on Capital Radio, after admitting she's started calling him her boyfriend.
