It’s hard to believe that over a year ago, we got the iconic “dream guest on my podcast” line from JoJo Siwa. The sassy catchphrase, paired with her bold, bedazzled outfit and abstract makeup art, still remains a prominent meme — as if it happened yesterday. It’s even harder to believe that Siwa, after surprising fans with a new teaser cover of “Bette Davis Eyes”, has taken a complete 180 with her public persona. Gone are the days of rhinestones and black body suits… It’s time for her most unexpected transformation to date… a 1950s trad wife.
Her Relationship with Chris Hughes
Let’s reel it back to when fans suspect her image started to sway a bit. Siwa met her current boyfriend, Chris Hughes, on Celebrity Big Brother U.K., where the two formed a friendship quickly and grew closer both on and off screen. According to People, Siwa shared with Hughes that she identifies as queer but has had trouble finding who she is. While filming the show, Siwa was in a relationship with Kath Ebbs and did not identify as straight or as being attracted to males. After news broke out that Siwa and Ebbs had broken up, shortly after, Siwa and Hughes’ relationship was no longer platonic. Siwa’s fans started to spiral with questions…
The first bump in the road for Siwa fans was that Hughes and Siwa have a 10-year age gap. After confirming their relationship in June 2025, Siwa has been slowly playing around with her style, and fans are suspecting that it has more to do with Hughes’ approval than Siwa’s personal preference.
Unrecognizable Makeover
Supporters of Siwa are growing increasingly concerned that Hughes is negatively impacting her image by forcing her into a more traditional housewife mold. Siwa’s new look — featuring pin curls and bright red lipstick — stands in stark contrast to her previous style, which included rainbow accessories and tons of glitter. Based on the X replies to Siwa’s new cover, both fans and members of the LGBTQ community have expressed hurt over her actions and appearance.
Hughes is even being accused of grooming Siwa, given his age, authority over her, and her drastic makeover while dating Hughes. On top of that, there are now rumors circulating that Siwa is pregnant with Hughes’ child after Siwa posted this TikTok with two truths and one lie:
Hughes Breaks His Silence
Siwa’s followers continued down the rabbit hole after she posted that TikTok, but neither Hughes or Siwa have officially confirmed the pregnancy rumors. Hughes has broken his silence on his feelings for Siwa and admits that he has plans to marry her. “I’d love to marry her. I’d be lying if I didn’t tell you I run through scenarios of our wedding day… We’d have a proper English wedding, and I can imagine her in a full wedding dress,” he told Sun’s Fabulous Magazine in an exclusive interview.
Currently on Siwa’s Instagram, she hasn’t confirmed or denied any speculation of their relationship and is focusing on debuting her cover song. The song was officially released on July 11, and Siwa has been teasing behind-the-scenes footage of a possible music video. Who knows, Hughes could make a guest appearance in the video and shock everyone, so we’ll keep you in the loop asap!
