JoJo Siwa has blindsided fans by postponing all the dates of her upcoming US tour. The Dance Moms star, who is currently dating Chris Hughes, hinted in a statement that she will be spending the summer in Europe instead.

The website detailing her live shows now reads: “I’ve got some news that breaks my heart to share… my US tour has to be postponed.

“I promise I’ll be back before you know it to perform for all the beautiful people in the US!… Announcements will be coming soon, including some Europe shows!:)

“Thank you so much for your understanding and support. I can’t wait to see you all soon! To my Dream Guest VIPs, my team will be reaching out to you individually to plan something special. Refunds will be issued at point of purchase.”

It’s been a whirlwind few weeks for JoJo who was also dropped by her record label. The reality star had been signed to the record company Columbia in 2024, and she released her single Karma and EP Guilty Pleasure with the label.

But less than a year later, the US reality star is no longer working with the label with her latest single Bulletproof released independently.

However, in better news the star has reportedly bagged her own ITV2 reality show with boyfriend Chris Hughes. The pair are in talks for their own series documenting the early stages of their romance.

The romance between the pair has been going from strength to strength since they met on Celebrity Big Brother.

After stunning viewers with their flirty antics in the show, the pair did not wait long to go public.

The news unravelled after JoJo’s heartbroken partner Kath announced on social media the morning after the afterparty that JoJo had dumped her. Kath was particularly hurt as she’d jetted to meet JoJo and was left alone in London after the snub.

In an interview with Capital Radio, JoJo confirmed that she and Chris were now exclusive. She announced: ‘I’m sure it’s no secret to people, I am in a lovely relationship with a sweet boy named Christopher Hughes.’

She also gushed about her feelings for the Love Island star in an interview with The Guardian when asked whether things between them were still platonic.

‘It’s not platonic anymore, and it’s been a beautiful development, a beautiful connection, and I’m absolutely head over heels for him and he’s the same way,’ she told them.

Hebes are touted as the ultimate foliage plant, growing in uniform, compact and colourful arrays. These wonderful shrubs are also evergreen, so they keep their spectacular foliage all year, giving your garden a bright and impressive flair from the first day of the year to the last.

Named after the Greek Goddess of youth, Hebes plants will add a breath of fresh air to any garden, patio or allotment with their vibrant colours and spectacular growth. Hebes are loved for their low-growing domes of densely packed leaves, ensuring they don’t take up too much room, block natural light or grow wild. They are excellent for providing contrast and texture in a border of your garden, but they will also thrive in patio containers.

Hebes are virtually maintenance-free evergreen shrubs, fully frost hardy and tolerant of drought, shade, sun and poor soil, so they are more than comfortable in the UK’s turbulent climate. They are also very slow-growing, meaning you can plant them pretty much anywhere and just leave them to be.

All Hebes in this collection complement each other and are supplied as strong healthy plants in approx. 1.5-2.5 litre containers. All you have to do is simply plant and stand back, making this set the new best friend of new or inexperienced gardeners.

Here’s a list of some of the Hebes that may be selected in the set:

• Hebe Heartbreaker
• Hebe Emerald Green Globe
• Hebe Sapphire Hebe Purple
• Hebe albicans Red Edge
• Hebe Vernicosa
• Hebe Pewter Dome

Laura Anderson appears to take aim at her ex partner Gary Lucy in a Father’s Day post as sarcastically praises fathers who ‘financially’ take care of their children

Since the arrival of their daughter two years ago, the relationship between Laura Anderson and Gary Lucy has been far from smooth-sailing. And it seems despite the fact the pair parted ways in February 2023, after attempting to rekindle their relationship before the birth of their daughter, Laura’s bitterness towards Gary is still ever present.

On Father’s Day, Laura posted a tribute to :”Great dads who show up and financially support their children. You children love you.”

According to reports, it was Gary’s children from a previous relationship that forced him to make the difficult decision to split with Laura after she proposed he move to Scotland in order to raise their daughter Bonnie, two.

Back in October last year, Gary was at the receiving end of Laura’s frustration when he posted a series of pictures showing off his relationship with Bonnie..

And at the time she posted: “Instead of posting videos of the one time you saw your daughter this year, can you please reply to my text from 2weeks ago please, that would be great.”

Her post attracted a string of attention but left Gary feeling the need to retaliate, in a desperate bid to counter her claims of being an absent father.

Taking to his social media at the time, he posted a picture of himself with his youngest son Theodore and responded saying: “I could eat him all up.”

But his hashtags underneath his post appeared to be evidence that he was fuming at Laura’s suggestion he was not present in his daughter’s life.

He ended his post saying: “#handsomeboy, #deadbeatdad.” And this was followed by an emoji of the middle finger.

Last year, Laura opened up on life as a single mum to the Mirror.

She explained: “But that’s the cards I was dealt in the end. Of course, I’m going to make it work for my child, even more so. I feel like I’m a really good mum, to be honest.”

She added: “Prioritise what you need to do, it’s just me. I have to make it work. I am tired but of course, I’m going to be tired. I’m bringing up a human soul, that’s what I signed up for.”

When asked her advice for other parents in a similar situation, she replied: “[Bonnie’s] great, your social life does a take a little bit of a backseat but most people, your good friends understand that.”
