JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes discuss marriage as they prepare for first Christmas together in England
The Celebrity Big Brother alums reveal when they started dating and flag a possible future proposal, as they gear up for a holiday with Hughes’s family

JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes are talking marriage as they prepare for their first Christmas together in England. The singer, 22, and the Love Island star, 32, who met on Celebrity Big Brother earlier this year, will spend the holidays with Hughes’s family in England this year. In interviews ahead of the festive period, the couple signaled that their relationship is moving quickly and that marriage is on the table.
During a chat with The Sun, they discussed how and when a proposal might happen. JoJo joked that she might pop the question if Chris doesn’t go down on one knee within seven years, while Chris insisted he would be the one to propose. JoJo also revealed that the couple began dating in May, not June as previously thought, and referenced an anniversary around that time. She quipped about a future date, saying, “May 27th, 2032, I will be down on one knee,” illustrating the seriousness of her plans.
The pair have moved quickly, balancing time between the United States and the United Kingdom. Hughes rose to fame on Love Island in 2017 and has since built a transatlantic relationship with Siwa. In the three weeks they spent in the Celebrity Big Brother house, Hughes said he got to know JoJo’s ins and outs well enough to feel confident about their connection. The couple has publicly denied the idea that their romance was a showmance intended to boost profiles, insisting their feelings are real.
Both say nothing will come between them in terms of work. JoJo noted that a key dealbreaker is accepting job offers that could jeopardize their relationship or create stress. They have continued to navigate their fast-moving relationship while splitting time between homes in the U.S. and the U.K. The couple uses they/them pronouns in public appearances.
Off to the side, JoJo’s ex Kath Ebbs announced engagement to new partner Tilly Lucas-Rodd. The two had appeared on Celebrity Big Brother together, and Kath later revealed she had previously slid into Tilly’s DMs two years prior. The latest public signaling of the trio’s evolving relationships comes as JoJo and Chris also shared moments in social media, including an appearance on Instagram Live where they showed engagement rings, signaling a potential milestone in their relationship.
As Christmas approaches, Siwa and Hughes have kept the focus on family and future plans, including a first Christmas together in England and the possibility of a formal proposal in time. Their trajectory continues to unfold across their careers, with both acknowledging the importance of maintaining their personal bond amid public attention and transatlantic living.
