JoJo Siwa and Kath Ebbs' relationship
We look back at JoJo Siwa's romance with Kath Ebbs:
JoJo Siwa went public with hers and Kath Ebbs' relationship in January 2025.
The Dance Moms star had been introduced to 27-year-old Australian content creator Kath by a mutual friend called G-Flip six months earlier.
JoJo had split with her girlfriend Dakayla Wilson in November 2024 and it is believed she hooked up romantically with Kath soon after.
Speaking in March at the 36th Annual GLAAD Media Awards, JoJo said of her relationship: “I am so happy. I am in a very mature relationship, and it's beautiful. It's taught me so much about life.
“It's taught me so much about love and respect, and it's a beautiful thing.
“It’s different in more ways than I can count. I wouldn’t even know what to say the biggest is ‘cause just everything is so different and special.”
Kath even claimed they had talked about marriage together.
However, JoJo's romance with Kath abruptly hit the skids on April 25, 2025, at the Celebrity Big Brother wrap party.
JoJo dumped Kath at the bash after spending 19 days in the CBB house - where she had grown close to Love Island star Chris Hughes.
JoJo split with her partner, Kath Ebbs, on the night of the CBB final and immediately spent the following weekend with Chris.
She then jetted back to the States as she had to return to work.
After three weeks apart, Chris made the 12-hour journey from the UK to Mexico to surprise JoJo at one of her gigs.
