Chris Hughes has opened up about his relationship with Jojo Siwa and her sexuality in a new interview with The Sun's Fabulous Magazine.The 32-year-old media mogul met the 22-year-old reality TV star on the set of Celebrity Big Brother UK in April, and following their stint on the show, the couple has faced a substantial amount of backlash. Siwa, who previously identified as lesbian, came out as queer and updated her pronouns on live TV, while her relationship with Hughes was still platonic and budding. Following the show's finale, Siwa swiftly broke up with her girlfriend, Kath Ebbs, at the Celebrity Big Brother UK after party after she flew out to London to attend. Hughes and Siwa began dating shortly after. "It upsets me that she is being thrown hate online," Hughes said in his latest interview. "I do feel a sense of responsibility that being with me has led to her getting hate. I dont understand how anyone could be mean to someone as caring as her."Hughes took the time to clarify that Siwa is "still part of the LGBTQ+ community." "Joelle has been with girls all her life," said Hughes, using Siwa's real first name. "She is bisexual. Shes not now straight just because shes with me." See on Instagram "Im very respectful of everything shes been through. Thats her own personal journey," he concluded. Sexuality can be fluid, and you should be able to love who you want without judgment. She is still part of the LGBTQ+ community; she always will be. And while theres been negativity, there has been so much love.He even took the time to address the 10-year age gap between them, saying Siwa is "one of the most mature people" while he is very immature, "but it just works." He also noted that their first kiss was "genuinely special."Id love to marry her," said Hughes. "Id be lying if I didnt tell you I run through scenarios of our wedding day." He also said that they "both want kids." The lovebirds met in April 2025. Hughes went on to address speculation about his own sexuality. "Ive had more people call me gay in the last two months of my life than ever before. But it doesnt bother me as long as people arent nasty, opinions are fine," said Hughes. "I may be feminine in the way I do things, but I wouldnt change the way I am for anything. I cry a lot, but we live in a world where toxic masculinity exists, and there isnt an ounce of that in my body."This interview comes after a week of pregnancy rumors swirling around Siwa. She's been fanning the flames of the rumor on social media, making a two-truths-and-a-lie TikTok with one of the options being, "I'm pregnant." Siwa's mom left a comment on her video that read, "Grandma Jess reporting for duty." In June, Siwa opened up about her evolving sexuality. "When I came out at 17, I said, 'Im pansexual, because I dont care [about gender].' But then I kind of boxed myself in and I said, 'Im a lesbian.' And I think I did that because of the pressure." When the interviewer asked her where that pressure came from, she said, "In a weird way, I think it came a little bit from inside the [LGBTQ] community at times. From people I know, from partners Ive had. You just get put in this world where you feel like, because you now have said, 'Oh, I'm a lesbian,' you have to be a lesbian. And the truth is, sexuality is fluid."Though perhaps a bit messy in execution, Siwa said that she's "beyond happy with it all," referring to her coming out process, and if she "could go back in time, I wouldnt change a thing. Really. Zero. I would change nothing." In the midst of all the hubbub, Siwa dropped out of the Back Lot Bash in late June, a Chicago pride event that caters to queer women, at the last minute due to reported "scheduling conflicts."
