JoJo Siwa has made a big life change as a result of her friendship with her Celebrity Big Brother co-star, Chris Hughes.
During her time in the CBB house, Siwa and Hughes became fast friends and were often seen sharing several close moments.
Following the show's conclusion, the 'Karma' singer and her partner, Kath Ebbs, announced they had gone their separate ways after splitting up at the Celebrity Big Brother afterparty, with both Siwa and Ebbs giving their sides of the story.
When the two made an appearance on This Morning, Siwa was asked whether her relationship with the Love Island star had something to do with it, which she denied.

She said it was 'platonic', while Hughes, 32, described it as 'just a strong friendship'.
Since then, the two have been spotted out and about, and a recent snap of them together in bed has further fuelled the romance rumors.
Hughes posted a pic of the pair cuddled up together in bed while he planted a kiss on her forehead, with a caption reading: "Sleepinnn beauty."
Siwa has taken an interest in Hughes' hobbies, such as his favorite soccer team, with the reality star wearing a Sunderland AFC soccer shirt on stage in London last week in honor of the team's ascension to the Premier League.
While the singer was booed for the custom-made top, she doesn't appear to be ditching the Sunderland love anytime soon, as
the 22-year-old told Channel 4's Sunday Brunch yesterday (1 June): "Chris has made me into a Sunderland fan. Ha'way the lads!"
Talking about the team's Premier League promotion, she added: "Oh baby, we've been waiting eight years. I've been singing the songs with my arms out. A fan actually made us matching bracelets, but they were black and white.
"Chris said he wasn't sure he could wear it because it's Newcastle colours. So this sweet fan actually made us new ones but in Sunderland colours."
As for whether the pair's relationship is still 'platonic', Siwa 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."
And it seems Hughes has also made a good impression on Siwa's family, as she said on Sunday Brunch that her 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." she added.
"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 however many years it feels like forever.
"He gets along as well as I do. I think he loves me because of my parents!"
