JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes have been flaunting their loved-up relationship online, prompting the performer's ex-partner Kath Ebbs to lash out.

JoJo Siwa's ex-partner Kath Ebbs has taken a swipe at her former girlfriend after the Dance Moms icon, 22, shared a string of cosy photos with her rumoured boyfriend Chris Hughes, 32.

The Celebrity Big Brother co-stars convinced viewers they were romantically interested in each other whilst in the famous house, despite the fact that JoJo was in a relationship with the non-binary Australian influencer, 27.

Now, the pair have stirred up more speculation they have become an item since JoJo dumped Kath as they were photographed kissing in a swimming pool and holding hands on holiday.

Seeming to acknowledge their new status, JoJo's heartbroken ex couldn't help but lash out at the celebrity pair, taking a thinly-veiled dig at the duo.

Kath took to Instagram Stories to share a sad quote, which read: "Are u ok", with the response: "yeah but can we change the topic before I cry."

The DJ then shared a second post online featuring another ex-partner and their new wife, with Kath slotted between the pair as they all cuddled up in support.

They wrote on top of the video: "Sapphic love is your ex and their new wife nursing you through a break-up," captioning the clip: "Being gay is so fun."

Fans were quick to highlight the swipe at JoJo and Chris's blossoming relationship, which seems to have escalated in recent weeks.

A source, who reportedly saw the pair getting close as they spent some quality time together in Central America, told The Sun: "JoJo and Chris looked very loved-up and as they snogged in full view of other holidaymakers.

"They spent their time at the hotel holding hands and looked like a giddy couple in the early throes of love. It was nice to see. They were very hands-on, not entirely different to how they were on TV, just a bit more intimate.

"JoJo seemed totally relaxed, really in love and not in any way the JoJo we see when she's on stage. They're just totally comfortable around each other."
