JoJo Siwa and boyfriend Chris Hughes have hinted that wedding bells may be on the horizon after just eight months of dating.
The Dance Moms star has made it clear that she won't be jetting back to the States for Christmas, and is instead planning to celebrate the day in the UK with Hughes' family.
It was just eight months ago when Siwa and Hughes first met on Celebrity Big Brother, a popular reality show in the UK, in April.
Hughes, a former Love Island star, and the dancer-singer hit it off as friends straight away. Despite Siwa being in a relationship with Kath Ebbs at the time, that soon ended upon her departure from the Big Brother house.

Just weeks later, she and Hughes were officially an item, and so began their long-distance relationship.
And now, they're taking that next step by spending their first Christmas together.
"It’s my first Christmas away from my family - and in England, too," Siwa, 22, revealed to The Sun, while her 32-year-old partner joked about having to win over her mom Jess with a 'lovely present'.
Engagement talk is now on the table with it being the festive season, as Hughes admitted that he’s going down the 'sentimental route' with gifts - with Siwa notably getting excited over the talk of jewellery.
When asked about whether Hughes would get his girlfriend a ring, he told the publication: "Not just yet. You always get people who get engaged at Christmas. I see it on Instagram every year.
"I like the idea of it not being at a time where it could be expected."
He went on to explain how he would feel uncomfortable if Siwa got down on one knee, after she joked about popping the question herself if he went 'seven years' without doing it.
"I don’t know," he admitted. "I’ve spoken to people about this before you, obviously. And I actually said, ‘I think if I was proposed to, that would make me really uncomfortable'."
It comes just weeks after viewers were left baffled when the Brit referred to himself as 'single' on UK TV.
Fans raised eyebrows when Hughes appeared on MasterChef in late November and said: "So, I live on my own. I’ve been single for three years, so it’s not like I’m cooking for anyone."
Naturally, Siwa's fanbase went into meltdown, questioning whether the relationship was on the rocks. However, the confusion was later cleared up, with fans pointing out the episode had been filmed before his appearance on CBB.
Siwa later shut down the break-up rumours herself, sharing an anniversary post on Instagram that read: "6 months, wouldn’t trade one day for anything," before adding that she’s had a 'full heart the last six months'.
