JoJo Siwa has appeared to confirm her new relationship with a very intimate selfie.
It's no secret that the Dance Moms reality TV star struck up a very cosy friendship with UK Love Island star, Chris Hughes, while the pair were living under the same roof in the Celebrity Big Brother house in April.
Siwa, who was then in a relationship with her now-ex, Kath Ebbs, was seen hugging and sharing several close moments with Hughes while going on to admit she had learned a lot about herself, including that she was 'not a lesbian'.

Rumors have since been swirling that romantic sparks have been flying between the pair, particularly after cosy snaps of them on vacation came to the surface.
Now, the apparent couple are no longer holding back and seem to have confirmed their relationship with a bang.
Taking to Snapchat, Hughes posted a steamy bedroom pic of the pair cuddled up together while he planted a kiss on her forehead.
The 32-year-old captioned the pic: "Sleepinnn beauty."
The 'Karma' hitmaker, who had previously denied any romance and had said their relationship is 'platonic' while on British chat show This Morning, also revealed to fans this week that she had developed feelings for Hughes.
The star, who has been performing a series of London shows, made a tribute to Hughes while on stage, changing the lyrics in her cover of Bette Davies' Eyes to sing 'Chris Hughes' eyes'.
Then at a a dance class at Pineapple Dance Studios, a fan asked her to pinpoint the exact moment she knew she had fallen for Hughes but apparently can't as she said: "Loads of different times, loads of different times on different levels. I'm very very happy where we are currently, obviously, I mean I literally smile every single second of every single day now.
"One of personal biggest frustrations in my life now is that I actually don't know, I genuinely don't know, and I've spoken to him about it, I've spoken to my mom about it, I don't know the moment that it - It was never like a light switch happened, it was just... you know what I mean? And so I genuinely don't know! It's serendipity!"
The star even went on to hint that she could possibly relocate countries to be with Hughes but will be splitting her time between the US and the UK for now.
She also told The Guardian: "It’s not platonic any more, and it’s been a beautiful development, a beautiful connection, and I’m absolutely head over heels for him and he’s the same way."
Siwa also told Sunday Brunch how her family has embraced Hughes who flew out to the states to surprise her for her birthday last month.
"My parents think the absolute world of him, and him and my Dad are like best friends, Chris was actually telling me this yesterday, they went to the spa together yesterday.
"They're literally best friends, Mom Siwa she absolutely adores him. I love watching her watch us, because I've never seen my mom so happy, and it's... it's... I could cry.
"Honestly, it makes me happy to have everybody act as... it feels like we're a family, it feels like he's been in my family for how ever many years it feels like forever.
"He gets along as well as I do. I think he loves me because of my parents!"
Meanwhile, Chris has also gushed about their relationships, admitting: "She's just just my favourite human and somebody I can literally talk about relentlessly."
