Hughes

JOJO Siwa looked incredible in sizzling holiday snaps as she cosied up to boyfriend Chris Hughes.

The Dance Moms star, 22, and her Love Island star beau, 32, have been thrilling fans with photos from the romantic getaway.

JoJo and Chris, who met on Celebrity Big Brother earlier this year, have kept their destination a secret.

But they’ve shared glimpses of their huge hotel suite, private pool, and day trips to the beach.

The couple lounged by the pool in one sweet photo, with JoJo stunning in a blue and white gingham bikini.

Chris cradded JoJo and wrapped his legs around her in the intimate snap.

JoJo posed for another selfie on the beach, and revealed her toned figure in a tiny pink bikini.

JoJo and Chris are in a long distance relationship but have already been discussing marriage plans.

And Chris has revealed the moment they made their romance official, after Celebrity Big Brother viewers suspected they were more than just friends.

He has spoken openly about their connection on the Question The Default podcast with Harry Corin, in which he told “nothing was rushed or forced, it just happened.”

He then confirmed it was when he flew Mexico in May that they made things official.

He surprised her at a festival she was playing at which happened few weeks after CBB – with her family there – and they became an item.

Chris said they “rekindled and met up in Mexico” and said: “I flew out to surprise her, which was nice.

“I spent a few days with her and her family in Orlando as well before flying home and that’s where it all started.”

Later in the chat, he said: “I went to Mexico and met up with her which is where the whole feelings developed and things changed.

“Which was lovely and no secret to anybody.

“But it was genuinely lovely and nothing was rushed or forced it just happened.”

The Boomerang songstress talked about her potential wedding plans in an exclusive chat with The Sun. 

She said: “A wedding is a two-person thing. So we would have to decide what it looks like.

“But I do know that I want it to have a baby-blue scheme and I need to help Chris make the playlist.

“Otherwise, it’ll be all songs I don’t know!

“He likes to educate me on music. He loves The 1975 and all these boy bands, but I don’t know any of them as they are British.

“At the end of the day, we have a very public life, but we are still two humans who love each other very much.”

Monaghan GAA icon Eugene ‘Nudie’ Hughes has passed away at the age of 67.

In a distinguished career, Hughes won three Ulster SFC titles and a National Football League title, while he was selected as an All-Star three times.

Widely considered Monaghan’s greatest footballer, Hughes was diagnosed with cancer in 2018.

He became the first Monaghan player to win an All Star in 1979 and repeated the feat in 1985 and 1989 when he received further personal accolades.

Hughes was one of only a small number of players to have been recognised in defence and attack, his first All Star coming as a corner-back with the others coming as a corner-forward.

Monaghan won the Ulster title in each of the years he received an All-Star.

Hughes was also part of the team that won the National Football League crown in 1985.

He picked up a Railway Cup medal in 1984 as part of Ulster’s winning side and also won two Ulster football titles with Castleblayney.

In 2024, Hughes was honoured by the Gaelic Players Association with a Lifetime Achievement award.

In an interview with BBC Sport NI’s ‘The GAA Social’ in February of this year, Hughes chose the Farney county’s Ulster Championship final triumph over Donegal in 1979 as his greatest day as a player.

Monaghan beat Donegal 1-15 to 0-11 at Clones on that occasion to end a 41-year wait for provincial glory.

JOJO Siwa stripped to a bikini as she shared an emotional post with boyfriend Chris Hughes.

The Celebrity Big Brother star, 22, shared a series of snaps with the former Love Island finalist on Instagram, as the couple enjoyed a beach getaway together.

She hinted at “hard moments” in the caption, while heaping praise on her boyfriend Chris, describing herself as a “lucky girl”.

In the caption, she wrote: “In the last week I’ve realized more than ever that I’m a lucky girl who is in love with the one who I laugh the loudest with, have the most fun with, and enjoy time the most with.

“Beautiful days are here and they are gorgeous [Chris Hughes] thank you for this beautiful week, and for every day since we’ve met continuing to make me smile through even the hard moments.

“I Love you beyond [heart emoji]”.

Cruel claims ‘everyone hates’ my pal JoJo Siwa are ridiculous… I know the truth

The CBB star can be seen sharing an embrace with Chris in one sun-soaked beach snap as the pair both don swimwear.

The couple are also seen enjoying a dance in a sweet video shared within the post, which included a series of highlights from their trip.

The post has already clocked over 100,000 likes, with fans quick to show support for the couple in the comments section.

One wrote: “You both deserved a love like this. I’m so happy you both chose to do big brother”.

Another added: “We are all so happy you’ve found love with Chris. You deserve someone who sees your heart the way he does. You’ve been through so much, and it’s beautiful to see you finally loved the way you deserve.”

JoJo and Chris – who are already discussing marriage plans – first became incredibly close during their 19-day stint in ITV‘s spy house back in April.

Scenes on the CBB show saw them share a forehead kiss as well as a peck on the shoulder.

Viewers were continually left confused over Chris’ seemingly “flirty” behaviour towards JoJo – who had a partner, Kath Ebbs, at the time – before the pair secretly held hands in the bedroom.

Back in the real world, when JoJo had split with Kath, the duo then left fans convinced they were sending secret “love” signals during a TikTok video.

JoJo then clarified her relationship status with Chris in a joint interview on ITV daytime show This Morning in April, during which she said they shared a “soulmate friendship.”

But last week, Chris revealed that just weeks after the interview, during their Mexico trip in May, they made things official.

He spoke openly about their connection on the Question The Default podcast with Harry Corin, in which he shared “nothing was rushed or forced, it just happened.”

He then confirmed it was when he flew to Mexico to surprise her at a festival she was playing at which happened few weeks after CBB – with her family there – where they became an item.

Chris said they “rekindled and met up in Mexico” and said: “I flew out to surprise her, which was nice.

“I spent a few days with her and her family in Orlando as well before flying home and that’s where it all started.”

Later in the chat, he said: “I went to Mexico and met up with her which is where the whole feelings developed and things changed.

“Which was lovely and no secret to anybody.

AN EMOTIONAL JoJo Siwa was seen breaking down in tears live on stage after paying tribute to her boyfriend Chris Hughes.

The Celebrity Big Brother star, 22, has been on the road hitting venues across Britain, with her last show last night.

At her last gig of the tour, JoJo appeared to become overwhelmed.

The Dance Moms star broke down in tears as she took to the stage for the final show of her Infinity Heart Tour.

In a video shared by a fan on TikTok, JoJo was seen welling up during her performance of Back To That Girl.

She then told the audience at the Klub Proxima in Warsaw, that she doesn’t usually get “so emotional”.

Continuing, JoJo said: “It’s been a while since I’ve done what I love which is being on stage being in front of you.

“And, most of you won’t really care, but today’s the last day of this tour.

“You don’t have to pretend you care, you came here because I’m in your city, you didn’t come here because it’s the last one.

“We’re all sobbing right now. But, it just, just to anybody who A, is in this building, B, came to any of these shows, or C, whether it be a good comment or a bad comment, left a comment, hit a like, watched a video, anyone who supported anything just a big massive thank you.”

An emotional JoJo then added: “I finally had myself pulled together and then I saw all these hearts in here.

“That caught me off guard that was good!’

The star’s emotional moment on stage followed a heartfelt Instagram post where JoJo paid a tribute to everyone on her tour who had supported her, which included Chris who has been cheering her on at the side of the stage.

She wrote: “I’ll definitely have a lot more to say once I’ve gathered some thoughts, but tonight is the final show on the Infinity Heart Tour and I am incredibly emotional.

“The amount of work that has gone into creating the show from choreographing it myself to all the creative direction to actually executing it on stage, the show represents who I want to be as a person and the artist that I wanna be in this lifetime, and it’s translated so well to the crowd and hearing your reviews that have been so positive, it just makes me flood with happiness and gratitude.

“Thank you so much for all the love on this tour, to everyone who showed up to the concerts, and to everyone who supported from the distance online.

“Means so very much.”

Chris then thrilled fans when he wrote in the comments: “Smashed it my love.”

The pair met on Celebrity Big Brother earlier this year and have been smitten ever since.

JoJo recently insisted she is not straight amid her romance with Chris and questions surrounding her sexuality.

The YouTuber has refused to put a label on her identity after falling for the former Love Island star inside the CBB house.

Prior to entering the house, JoJo was loved up with non-binary influencer Kath Ebbs but ended their romance to pursue things with Chris.

Now, she has given a candid insight into the negative reactions and “extreme amount of hate” for being currently “in a hetero relationship”.

The dancer and singer opened up in a radio interview on Sirius XM’s Smith Sisters Live.

JoJo said: “From the very, very, very beginning of our relationship. He said, ‘So you can be anything you want. I just love you. I don’t want you to change. I just love you.’

“And I don’t know, I think we got to see on episode two of Big Brother, he was the only person in fact that stood up for me right away.

“That shows who he is as a straight white male that shows the kind of person he is to stand up for the young 22-year-old queer person in the house.”

JoJo appeared to be referring to when Chris defended her amid a homophobic remark from actor Mickey Rourke inside the house.

Usman Nurmagomedov broke the heart of Irishman Paul Hughes with another contentious points win to retain his PFL lightweight world title on Friday in Dubai.

Eight months after Nurmagomedov was cast as a lucky winner at the same venue, the Russian was again a narrow victor in the rematch as Hughes produced a brilliant performance over five rounds.

The scorecards did not reflect a close battle as the judges saw it 50-45, 49-46 and 48-47 for Nurmagomedov.

“You want to say this fight was close too? I feel I won every round, but it was a very tough fight with tough opponent. I did not underestimate him, I think he underestimated me,” Nurmagomedov said.

Hughes, 28, fought expertly at close range and was a clear winner of rounds two and three, keeping his cool when Nurmagomedov headbutted him after the bell at the end of the first round.

The Irishman was hit with several low blows in round one and four which appeared to slow his progress and were rounds that Nurmagomedov pocketed.

But Hughes recovered each time and rocked Nurmagomedov on several occasions including with a superb kick and body shot combination in the third and a big right hand in the closing stages.

With Hughes mixing his striking, landing knees and short right-handed punches, UFC legend Khabib Nurmagomedov, the cousin of Usman, could be heard screaming at top volume for Usman to respond.

Khabib’s appeals appeared to fall on deaf ears as Usman elected to showboat during spells of the fight.

JOJO Siwa has taken a savage swipe at Chris Hughes’ ex Olivia Attwood, saying ‘there’s two sides to every story.’ 

Ever since their savage split seven years ago, there’s been no love lost between exes Chris and Olivia.

While it’s been seven years since the pair dated, according to a pal, Chris feels especially slighted by several comments Olivia made about him while he was in the Celebrity Big Brother house – particularly concerning his relationship with JoJo Siwa.

When Chris was on the show, Olivia, who has been married to footballer Bradley Dack since June 2023, claimed she had had therapy after dating him.

She also suggested he exhibited ‘creepy’ behaviour in the house with JoJo, who is 11 years his junior.

Chris hasn’t spoken out about Olivia’s claims, despite her also suggesting he was being fake for the cameras.

She added: “[Some] people, they go on reality TV, they are one person and when you experience them off camera… It’s like shapeshifters.”

And when asked directly on the social media platform what she thought of Chris’s romance with JoJo once they left the house, Olivia hinted Chris was leveraging the relationship for publicity, simply saying “she’s really famous”.

Now, Chris’ girlfriend JoJo, who he met in the Celeb Big Brother house, has appeared to take aim at Love Island star Olivia, while appearing on Radio Andy’s Smith Sisters Live. 

The conversation on the podcast heard JoJo heaping praise onto her beau Chris, and adding: “Honestly he is such a good guy that his mouth has stayed shut. 

“Always know that there are two sides to every single story – I don’t even know every side to every single story.

“I love him to death but I met him a few months ago, I don’t know every single thing about his past.” 

JoJo went on: “There’s a lot to be said about the good guy in the story who keeps his mouth shut. 

“And Chris is a simple guy who loves his family, his golf, his horses and his sports.

“And one thing we have in common is that we’ve got wrath from our past online and I could easily shut every single person that has said any single thing down with text proof, and he could do the same, but it’s not worth it.” 

Olivia Attwood’s Career History

From Monster grid girl and Love Island star to daytime telly panellist and respected documentary maker, Olivia Attwood has made a huge career pivot in recent years…

Olivia first started as a Monster grid girl at motorsport events in 2012 when she was 19-years-old, and did it right up until she went into Love Island in 2017.

After placing third in the reality show with then-boyfriend Chris Hughes, she starred in their own spin-off series, Chris & Olivia: Crackin’ On, in 2018.

Later that year, she appeared on Celebs Go Dating and then joined the cast of The Only Way Is Essex in 2019, where she had a number of fiery on-screen rows.

In 2020, the reality TV veteran began starring in her own reality series on ITVBe titled Olivia Meets Her Match, which followed her wedding preparations with footballer Bradley Dack.

In 2021, the tide started to turn.

Olivia made appearances on household shows Lorraine, Tipping Point: Lucky Stars and Loose Women.

Then, in 2022, ITV commissioned her for her first ever documentary series.

She presented Olivia Attwood: Getting Filthy Rich, which explored women selling sexual content online.

In June 2023, ITV commissioned Olivia Marries Her Match and made her a regular guest panellist on Loose Women.

Her most recent docu-series, Olivia Attwood: The Price of Perfection, aired in January this year where she sensitively explored the cosmetic industry.

She added: “By doing that you’re just feeding that beast, you’re feeding that monster and you don’t need to. It’s your past, and what is beautiful about Christopher is that he’s not living in that past.” 

During the chat, JoJo also said that Chris had made her a nicer person, as she detailed the way he greets people when he walks into a room.

Olivia and Chris’ ‘toxic’ split

Their split in March 2018, just seven months after falling in love the previous summer, is the stuff of Love Island lore.

The pair had filmed a spin-off reality show, Chris and Olivia: Crackin’ On, which was intended to document their romance in the real world.

But instead, filming was dogged with rows; they split during the production and the number of planned episodes was slashed.

Indeed, Olivia even admitted she “hated” Chris once they were out of the villa bubble.

She said at the time: “I moved him into my own home, I mean like a week after leaving the villa. And we weren’t even getting on.

“So he moved in with a bag and was like, ‘I hate you.’ And I was like, ’I f***ing hate you.”

She later called the relationship “toxic” and admitted they were “horrible together”.

Caudery won the pole vault with a first-time clearance of 4.45m, before pushing herself to equal her best performance of the year by going over at 4.85m.

The 25-year-old won world indoor gold in a breakout 2024 season, during which she broke the British record with a 4.92m jump, but failed to qualify for the Olympic final.

“I’ve just been finding my flow again and figuring a few things out, so I didn’t push it today, but it is really exciting to jump back over the 80s again and I’m hoping to attempt [the British record] soon,” Caudery said.

Nuttall sealed her place on the team by winning the women’s 5,000m in 15 minutes 46.90 seconds, having achieved the qualifying time before the championships.

But 19-year-old Innes FitzGerald, who achieved the qualifying standard in breaking the European Under-20 record in London last month, must wait to see if she is selected after finishing third behind India Weir.

Okoye confirmed his place in Tokyo by winning the men’s discus with a 65.93m throw, while Anna Purchase threw a championship record 72.96m to win the women’s hammer title – a distance within UK Athletics’ (UKA) consideration standard.

Chris Hughes is said to be ‘upset’ that his Love Island ex Olivia Attwood landed a role with ITV’s This Morning after her ‘hitting out’ at his current relationship online

Chris Hughes and Olivia Attwood’s bitter history is threatening to spill over into ITV’s This Morning as the exes now find themselves working on the same show.

Seven years on from their fiery split the former Love Island stars are set to run into each other again as Olivia steps in as a guest host on the daytime programme this summer, which has reportedly left Chris rattled. Sources told The Sun that Olivia’s new role has sparked behind-the-scenes headaches for This Morning bosses, who are keen to keep the former couple apart.

Chris has been appearing regularly on the show as a roving reporter since his stint on Celebrity Big Brother, and it seems that Olivia’s arrival has thrown a spanner in the works for him.

An insider said: “Chris has been doing regular presenting gigs on location for This Morning ever since Celebrity Big Brother.

“He was starting to build up a really good relationship with the producers on the show and was hoping it would lead to more regular appearances over the summer – including a potential spot on the sofa or in the studio.

“Olivia coming on board to front the show for several dates over the next few weeks feels like a huge blow to him. He doesn’t want to have to do live crosses to his ex in front of the nation – it’s so awkward and he feels like the viewers will be scrutinising their every interaction and every little facial expression will be analysed. It’s the last thing he wants.”

Although it’s been years since they dated, Chris is said to have been hurt by comments Olivia made about his relationship with housemate JoJo Siwa during his time in the Celebrity Big Brother house.

While he was on the Channel 4 reality show, Olivia revealed she needed therapy after dating him. She also accused him of acting “creepy” around JoJo, who is 11 years younger than Chris.

In one TikTok video, Olivia said: “The therapy was expensive and now I’m going to have to go back for another round because I’m getting trolled on this app and because every weird, creepy thing that happens, I’m getting tagged in it.”

She went on to claim Chris was putting on a performance for the cameras. She added: “[Some] people, they go on reality TV, they are one person and when you experience them off camera… It’s like shapeshifters.”

When she was asked about Chris’s romance with JoJo after the show online, Olivia hinted he might be using the relationship for publicity, quipping: “she’s really famous”.

One of Chris’s friends has claimed he was upset by the snippy remarks, adding: “He didn’t understand why she needed to comment on him at all, as he never mentions her publicly. He has always only said positive things about her, both at the time of the split and since then.”

They went on to share more about his current dilemma, saying: “Now, just when all that post-CBB stuff has died down and he is happy with JoJo and really busy with work, Liv lands a gig on This Morning.

“Chris was really shocked as she is a regular on Loose Women, so he didn’t expect her to cross over to the show he works on. He felt like they had their own patches and now that’s no longer the case.

“Liv’s basically the new golden girl of ITV daytime, and he worries he’s going to be phased out, especially as she is the one with the plum main presenter spot on the sofa and he is a smaller part of the This Morning family.

“Ultimately, if bosses have to choose between her and him, he fears he’ll be the more expendable one. He’s also really not someone who likes conflict, so he would rather walk away.”

This Morning and Chris Hughes’ reps have been contacted for comment.
