More like Jojo Smooch-a and Chris Hugs. Everyone’s favorite reality TV couple made it red carpet official October 21 at the Dancers Against Cancer Gala in Los Angeles. JoJo Siwa was there to receive the org’s Humanitarian Award. “I’m gonna be a proper mess onstage,” Hughes said to Siwa, per E! News. “You should be very proud.”
It’s been a long road to the step-and-repeat for Hughes and Siwa. The Dance Moms alumna met the Love Island UK bombshell in April on Celebrity Big Brother UK. Siwa was dating Kath Ebbs at the time, and Siwa identified as a lesbian. Hughes and Siwa insisted their relationship was platonic, until the pair were spotted cuddling during a whirlwind tour of Orlando, FL — holding hands at Gideon’s Bakehouse at Disney Springs, and spooning in a hotel lobby (Helios Grand, maybe?). The couple hard launched with Instagram pics in bed together June 1. “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 told the Guardian the following day. All in all, it’s a much shorter rumors-to-carpet timeline that Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner, who took 2 years to make it step-and-repeat official.
