Celebrity Big Brother’s Trisha Goddard has given her verdict on Chris Hughes and JoJo Siwa’s ‘very, very intense’ bond they’ve displayed in current series of the ITV show. 

The former Love Island star, 32, and Dance Moms legend, 21, have raised a few eyebrows after displaying ‘flirty’ behaviour since entering the iconic house last week. 

Earlier this week the pair could be seen cuddling in bed, with Chris – who is single and straight – giving JoJo, who is in a relationship with her girlfriend Kath Ebbs, back scratches. 

The chat show host was quizzed about their friendship on Thursday’s instalment of Loose Women, with Denise asking her: ‘Does he [Chris] fancy her?’

Trisha tried to dodge the question and said: ‘Does a barnacle fancy the rock to which it’s connected?

‘Look… JoJo is fascinating.

‘We had some conversations, the thing about JoJo, she’s open about it, she can’t go to a restaurant without security, she can’t do anything.

‘She was on Dance Moms when she was six, there is a money-making machine around anyone famous, everything, her image is controlled.

‘In the house, unexpectedly, she found a freedom to be a child, to be a kid, she’s 21 -she has an old head on young shoulders because of the business side.

‘On the other side she was very young.

‘When Chris came into the house, he kind of made a beeline for Ella, Ella is a very, very pretty girl, then JoJo came in with her energy, and I felt for Ella.

‘It’s very, very, very, very intense.’

Kaye asked: ‘Has he got a game plan then?’

Trisha replied: ‘Well I said to him, get this, she’s 21, he’s 31.
