JoJo Siwa has revealed she’ll be returning to the UK in a matter of weeks, after she set tongues wagging over her close bond with Chris Hughes.
American singer JoJo, 21, and the British TV personality, 32, struck up an incredibly close bond while appearing on Celebrity Big Brother together last month, with fans questioning whether their friendship was purely platonic.
And while JoJo jetted home to the US late last month, in a new TikTok video she told her followers that it looks like she’ll be flying back to London ‘at the end of May.’
The dancer, who is set to release her new song Bulletproof on Friday, was тιԍнт-lipped on the reason for her UK return, as she shared the news in the latest episode of her Tea Time and Tea video series.
She said: ‘I have a little bit of tea, little bit, and I’m not supposed to talk about this so if anybody asks you I didn’t talk about this.
‘But I got word on London today, on going back to London, and without saying anything, I’m just going to say… end of May.’

The post sparked a sea of delight from her newfound UK fanbase, who fell in love with JoJo during her stint in the CBB house.
One commented: ‘WE’RE WAITING FOR YOU WITH OPEN ARMS;
‘Soooo if JoJo comes to London to perform – who fancies a big meet up?!!;
‘Should have come back to the UK instead of NYC… should have taken that London flight when you were offered it! I’ve never watching CBB in my life until you were on it… now I miss it every night;
‘End of May!!! The UK is so ready for you to come home, we miss Joelle!;
‘Sorry I just CHOKED on my own tea ARE YOU RETURNING TO THE UK?!’
JoJo shared the video after flying to New York to begin promoting her new song and its music video, which will be her first since finishing in third place on CBB last month.
Earlier this week, the former Dance Moms star continued to gush over her close bond with Chris Hughes as she shared sweet snaps of the pair to Instagram.

JoJo proved her admiration for Chris is still as strong as ever as she mentioned him in a Q&A, while also commenting on her happy memories.
When one fan asked what her favourite picture of the pair was, JoJo uploaded a snap of them hugging in the house, with another seeing them on a FaceTime call together.
While another post saw her hint at her memories of their time together when asked what makes her happy.
She said: ‘So many things… but currently something that’s not very typical. I love replaying things in my head over and over that make me happy!!!!’
JoJo also told how she’s missing the UK ‘very much’ as she shared a tearful video of her heading home following her stay.
With another post showed JoJo practising her and Chris’ dance to Dirty Dancing’s (I’ve Had) The Time Of My Life song as she noted he’d yet to show up for rehearsals.
JoJo also revealed how she would do Celebrity Big Brother all over again given the chance.
Fans have been sent into a frenzy over JoJo and Chris’ connection as they are convinced they have a blossoming romance, after JoJo called time on her relationship with partner Kath Ebbs at the CBB wrap party last month.
The pair have kept tongues wagging since they got out of the house, and on Saturday, offered a new glimpse at their friendship in images shared on Snapchat.
In an image shared during a Q&A, Chris revealed that he and JoJo perfected the Dirty Dancing lift they’d practiced while in the CBB house.
Chris then went onto share a snap of himself and JoJo on FaceTime together, telling his followers they’ve ‘kept in touch.’
JoJo and Chris have kept viewers guessing over their relationship despite them clarifying during a This Morning appearance that they were ‘just friends’.
Many were left unconvinced, especially after Chris dropped out of appearing in the upcoming series of Celebs Go Dating .
JoJo’s latest appearance stoked the flames further when she failed to shut down a possibility of a romantic future when she appeared at Stanford Speakers Bureau for A Night with JoJo Siwa.
The Dance Moms star was asked how she sees the relationship progressing, to which she said: ‘I mean look, we have the absolute most fun together and he is an absolute gem that’s come into my life.
JoJo’s words were met with an abundance of ‘awws’ from the crowd and reacting to them, she said: ‘Don’t let him see this it will boost his ego!’
She continued: ‘Genuinely something I love about him so much is that he has zero ego, he’s a really incredible sweet man.
‘I told him this on the last night, maybe it wasn’t the last night but sometime. I said you’re a vital part of my life that I didn’t know was missing.’
‘But I’m happy that I don’t have to anymore. So yeah he is an awesome guy and I think he will be around for a very long time.’
As the crowd wolf whistled at her response, JoJo told them to grow up.
Confirming that Chris is going nowhere, she said: ‘He’s a keeper, we’ll keep him around, we’ll see.’
