Chris Hughes and JoJo Siwa were housemates on Celebrity Big Brother last month, and their relationship has grown to be close. Since then, they have been friends.

Former housemate JoJo Siwa has teased over her relationship with Chris Hughes following their time on Celebrity Big Brother together. She’s expressed hope about the future whilst addressing fan reaction to a post this weekend.

JoJo, 21, and Chris, 32, met on the ITV show last month. The pair spent three weeks together in the Big Brother house and grew close whilst housemates on the reality TV show before both evicted in the final just over a week ago.

Since then, JoJo – who split from her partner Kath Ebbs at a wrap party for the show – has faced questions over her relationship with Chris. She said on This Morning this week that it is “platonic” between them and in the same interview Chris suggested that they have a “soulmate friendship”.

More recently, JoJo paid tribute to Chris this weekend at an event organised by Stanford University’s Speakers Bureau. Whilst at A Night with Jojo Siwa yesterday, the singer teased that he has become as a “vital part” of her life.

Following the event at the university in the US, JoJo posted about the experience on TikTok this morning. She then responded to several reactions from fans who mentioned Chris in the comments section of her post on the platform. Teasing over the future, JoJo appeared to express hope that they get to work together on a spin-off TV show moving forward.

JoJo first posted footage of herself dancing along to Natasha Bedingfield’s Unwritten earlier today. Over the video, she wrote in a message to fans on it: “Vibes because I just got home from giving a speech at STANFORD??????”

She wrote, “Wowwwww thank you for having me Stanford!” Despite not knowing whose idea it was, it sure made my night (and life) extra special! We had a great chat and talked about almost everything; I’m sure there will be many more videos there. If you see them, let me know! :)”

One fan responded, “You’re glowing Joelle, so happy!!!” I enjoyed your introduction to Chris. We are all in support of both of you. JoJo responded in kind, saying, “Thank you,” next to an emoji with hearts on it. Someone said, “The UK is supporting you and Mr. Hughes JoJo.” Three heart emojis were used to elicit JoJo’s response.

JoJo also made an implication that a future TV spin-off might occur. A fan who commented on the post this weekend, “JOJO AND CHRIS SPIN OFF,” responded with this. An emoji of two hands interacting with one another, which can be used to symbolize prayer, was JoJo replied with.

The post comes after JoJo attended the Stanford University event yesterday. The former Dance Moms star spoke about various topics, including her career and having opened up about her gender identity in the Big Brother house, which she has continued to discuss since leaving the show.

Footage shared on social media has also shown JoJo paying tribute to Love Island finalist Chris at the occasion. Asked how she sees their relationship progressing, JoJo said whilst at the event: “We have the absolute most fun together. He is an absolute gem that has come into my life.”

She continued, “Genuinely, one thing I love most about him is that he has no ego.” He is a truly wonderful sweetie. JoJo continued to say, “Sometimes, maybe it wasn’t the last night, but]I told him that.” You’re a significant part of my life, and I didn’t realize I was missing, but I’m happy that I don’t have to anymore.

She continued, “He’s a keeper, and I think he’ll be around for a very long time.” He’ll be with us forever. We’ll see”.

EXCLUSIVE: Brooklyn Beckham and his wife Nicola Peltz’s absence from David Beckham’s 50th birthday celebrations was noticed as a source close to the family revealed it was a ‘real blow to David’

As David Beckham celebrated his 50th birthday, concerns of a feud within the family grew as eldest son, Brooklyn Beckham, and his wife Nicola Peltz failed to show up to the many celebrations. The tension between the couple and the family “escalated in recent months”, with David and Victoria hoping to heal the “obvious rift”.

Romeo Beckham stepped up at dad David’s 50th birthday bash by giving a speech in the absence of his older brother Brooklyn. The 22-year-old was seen with cue cards in his pocket as he arrived at the party alongside brother Cruz, 20, and sister Harper, 13. He told guests at the swanky Core restaurant in London’s Notting Hill: “Without many of you, he wouldn’t be half of the man he is today.”

Manchester United and England legend David partied into the early hours of Sunday with A-list celebrities and pals from his football days. But the name he would have loved to have seen on the guest list – 26-year-old Brooklyn – was not there.David has a tattoo on his neck reading “Buster”, his affectionate nickname for his first child. But the no-show by Brooklyn and his actress wife Nicola, 30, was not a complete surprise to the guests.The divide between Brooklyn and the rest of the family has been dragging on for months, but it is still hurting David and wife Victoria, 51. One source connected to the family claimed: “Brooklyn not turning up was a real blow to David.

“Brooklyn was close with his dad growing up, but he is married now. His wife Nicola is older and confident in her own right, and so there is distance between Brooklyn and his parents. It has become a problem and not something they can keep private because of the way the family uses social media. Things have escalated in recent months, and there is a very obvious rift that David and Victoria would love to heal.”Victoria was back on social media last night with a post praising all of her children who did make the bash. Tagging Romeo, Cruz and Harper, she said: “Creating special memories with family and friends. We love you all.” Brooklyn was not mentioned.A few days earlier, David had still shown love for Brooklyn in his birthday message. In a sweet post full of throwback photos, the football legend said all four kids were his “biggest accomplishment” and “the reason I get out of bed each day”.

In his speech on Saturday night, Romeo praised his dad at length, having already called him “the most amazing role model” on social media.Brooklyn and Nicola flew to London from their LA home last week. As well as David’s 50th, they also did not attend Victoria’s birthday celebrations in April, or send a public Mother’s Day message in March.Some have insisted the rift is all about Nicola’s relationship with the Beckhams, but Brooklyn has also yet to post on his own social media about his dad’s milestone. The couple did not attend family celebrations in France on Friday, nor the big party at the Beckhams’ £10million mansion in the Cotswolds on Wednesday.However, David was not short of friends and family to party with at the weekend. Other guests included actor Tom Cruise, ex-teammate Gary Neville, and TV chef Gordon Ramsay. Gary, who turned 50 in February, wrote on social media: “Happy 50th mate. You’re the best! Stand still today for once and reflect on everything you have achieved and done in these first 50 years of your life.“We’ve won, lost, laughed and cried, but had the most incredible times together. I can still see our mums and dads in the crowd. Everything you’ve done has come through humility, care and hard work. I’m proud of you and, more importantly, trust you with my life. All my love to you.”He was one of the last to leave the celebrations at around 3am on Sunday morning and appeared to have enjoyed some fine wine with David as he raised his arms aloft and played around for the camera before posing and kissing his wife Emma.Gordon Ramsay said on social media: “Fantastic night of celebrations, thanks David Beckham and Victoria Beckham”, alongside a photo with his wife Tana taken on Saturday.Other guests included director Guy Ritchie and his wife Jacqui Ainsley, actress Eva Longoria and members of David’s family such as his dad Ted, 76, mum Sandra, 75, and sisters Lynne, 52, and Joanne, 43.But there was no Buster – and with David’s birthday celebrations now over, the row has gone into extra time.

The Beckhams shared a series of family-focused snaps, giving fans a glimpse into the lavish Notting Hill do thrown to mark David’s 50th birthday on Saturday night

Victoria and Harper Beckham stunned fans in matching navy maxi dresses, as they stepped out to celebrate David’s 50th birthday party. The iconic former footballer was joined by a host of his nearest and dearest as he marked his milestone, sitting down for a lavish meal and party at Notting Hill’s Core restaurant in London.

The girls stole the show as they twinned again in their stunning gowns, while posing alongside their family for photos. One snap showed the Beckham clan, with three of their four children in attendance – Romeo, 22, Cruz, 20, and Harper, 13.

Fans loved Victoria and Harper’s look, flooding the comments with praise for the mother-daughter duo. One wrote: “Harper has such a beautiful smile!” Another added: “I love Harper’s little V Beckham dress,” while a third gushed: “Harper Seven. She’s gonna be just like her gorgeous Mama xx”

Another photo saw David making memories with his parents and two sisters, Joanne and Lynne. In the sweet post, shared by Victoria, she wrote: “Creating special memories with family and friends. We love you all.” Although there was no sign of eldest son Brooklyn, 26, at the star-studded bash, reports state he was invited and made his family aware he wouldn’t be attending.

Victoria and Harper are often seen donning similar outfits – and it’s no surprise the teen wants to follow in her fashion icon mum’s footsteps. The former Spice Girl and her mini-me showed off their matching ‘fits in Dubai on Monday, where they were at the launch of a new capsule collection.

The pair wore similar silver gowns, with Victoria pairing her metallic dress with perspex heels. Harper opted for a strappy halter neck, which she accessorised with an elegant butterfly necklace.

The close knit family have made sure David knows how loved he is, having had a whole series of events in celebration of his 50th birthday. The Inter Miami manager kicked off with a party in Miami that had the likes of Lionel Messi and Mel B on the guestlist.

The family enjoyed a trip to Bordeaux on Friday, where they spent the afternoon wine tasting at vineyard. They then jetted to Paris for dinner in one of David’s favourite spots, followed by his London celebration on Saturday night. It comes after the footy star hosted a black tie event at his Cotswolds home, which got suitable rowdy as the night drew on.

But there was one important guest missing from his London celebration on Saturday night, with Brooklyn and his wife Nicola notably absent from the family-focused event. A source said: “David is heartbroken but putting a brave face on it. Brooklyn actually informed his parents a while ago that he and his wife, Nicola, would not be attending but, of course, David and Victoria desperately hoped he would change his mind.”

With his brother shunning the family get-together – for reasons so far unconfirmed – Romeo stepped up to deliver a speech to mark his dad’s big birthday. During his lavish Notting Hill dinner and party, Romeo addressed guests to say a few words about his old man.

With cue cards at the ready, Romeo told party-goers: “Good evening everyone. I would like to start by thanking you all for being here tonight. I know without many of you in here tonight he wouldn’t be half of the man he is today. But to the man of the moment…” He is then understood to have praised his dad, having described him earlier this week as “the most amazing role model” on social media.

David shared a heartfelt post earlier this week, expressing his gratitude for his supportive family. Writing on Instagram, the Inter Miami CF boss penned: “As I reflect on this Birthday I’m very grateful for many things in my life, the teams I’ve played for , my team mates , managers , the fans , MY COUNTRY and being England captain, the children I have met over different charities I work with , my team in my business & the friends I have around me I feel truly blessed…”

Lily Allen celebrated her 40th birthday this weekend with her closest friends and family. The Smile singer took to her Instagram page on Sunday to share a picture of the gorgeous spring-themed birthday cake as she thanked her loved ones for helping her celebrate under ‘tricky circumstances’.

The cake had light pink “Lily 40” piped onto the middle and was covered in white icing. Before being icing sugar-dipped, the edges were decorated with berries, figs, passion fruits, and flowers. She wrote, “Thank you to all of my beauty friends and family who showed up for me and made my birthday a special one in difficult circumstances.” She tagged her pals, “Love you all.”

At her private gathering were Gracie Allen, Miquita Oliver, and Kim Jones OBE, two fashion designers, and chef Andi Oliver, a close friend of the podcast’s co-host.

Andi wrote, “Love you sugarplum,” and Natasha Bedingfield said, “40 is the best. ” In the comments section, Lily’s friends and fans wrote, “Happy birthday.”

I really hope you had some memorable birthday moments, said one user, “Dearest Lily, I really hope you had some special moments for your birthday.” Miquita’s family is your family, I am aware of how you were raised by love. I hope the following year brings you such joy because you are so unique and beautiful. Lots and lots of love.

With tables set up in a stunning backyard decorated with flowers, decorations, and of course, food, Lily’s birthday was a happy one for the spring.

Rose Boyt, the daughter of British painter Lucien Freud, shared images from the event. In front of her cake, Lily stood in front of her photo wearing a pair of blue jeans, a shirt, and a brown sweater.

“The birthday of my god-daughter @lilyallen. What a woman,” Rose said. “Obviously at her christening when I stood there in the church with my fingers crossed behind my back and swore that I loved God and nobody smote me with their sword or whatever I had no idea that that small beloved child was going to turn into such a marvel.

Still as beloved, still as beautiful, and still as inventive, bold, and imaginative. I’m so happy to be a part of her team.

On her actual birthday, Lily posted a day-long look on Instagram that included pleated olive green pants, a baby blue body made of sheer mesh, and a lengthy gold necklace with a red heart pendant.

The actress donned red hair and wore black sunglasses to complete her seductive look. She captioned the post, which caused fans to clamber to the comments section to applaud her. “Happy Birthday, everyone.

How are you Benjamin Buttoning, a friend once said? You appear great, but you also maintain your spiritual growth, which is even more impressive.
