JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes appear to have confirmed their "relationship" after sharing intimate photos on social media, sending fans into a frenzy.
The former Celebrity Big Brother housemates reunited for Siwa's 22nd birthday celebrations, with Hughes jetting from the UK to join her in Mexico and Florida.
The Love Island star, 32, posted a series of cosy snaps on Instagram with the caption: "The previous 7 days have been the prettiest." with Siwa responding to the post: "& happiest:). Heart is overflowing."
The photos show the pair in various intimate poses, including cuddling together, Siwa resting her head on Hughes' shoulder, and them lying down together, whilst another features them embracing in a swimming pool.
The pair have previously insisted their relationship was purely platonic since leaving the Celebrity Big Brother house, but the latest images have convinced many fans they are now officially a couple.
Hughes also met Siwa's family and friends during the trip, including her mother, Jessalynn Siwa, who also starred on Dance Moms.

The most intimate picture showed Siwa sitting on Hughes' lap as they nestled into each other in a cafe, with fans noting it appeared they might be sharing a kiss at first glance.
Hughes surprised fans by revealing on Snapchat that he had flown 12 hours to Mexico to see Siwa, where she was performing at the Tec Emblema Festival.
A source told The Sun: "Chris didn't want to wait, he wanted to be there for her birthday. That's what this was all about. It was important to him. It's her birthday on May 19 so they'll be spending it together."
Siwa gave fans another major clue about their relationship during her performance in Mexico on Saturday night, while covering Kim Carnes' 1981 hit "Bette Davis Eyes," she changed the lyrics in the final chorus from "She's got Bette Davis eyes" to "Chris Hughes' eyes."
The new photos show how intimate the pair still are with one another
The singer couldn't hide her smile as she made the sweet tribute, with Hughes reportedly sitting in the front row of the audience and leaving fans to flock to their social media accounts to comment on the moment.
"She's SO CRUSHING on him. You can tell, she's thinking of him contently. She's smiling at him. She's giddy," wrote one fan on TikTok as another penned: "Oh Lordy!!!! This is EVERYTHING we've been waiting for!!!"
Fans flooded the comments section of Hughes' Instagram post, convinced the pair were "hard-launching" their relationship as one simply penned: "This has to be a hard launch."
Other comments included: "Best update ever! You make us so happy!" and "Seriously guys... just announce your in a relationship please." (sic)
Siwa and Hughes first sparked romance rumours during their time in the Celebrity Big Brother house earlier this year, despite insisting they were "just friends" during a This Morning appearance.
The speculation intensified after Siwa called time on her relationship with partner Kath Ebbs at the CBB wrap party last month, immediately spending the following weekend with Hughes before returning to America.

Speaking previously at Stanford Speakers Bureau, Siwa described Hughes as "a vital part of my life that I didn't know was missing" and added: "He's a keeper, we'll keep him around, we'll see."
The Love Island star further fuelled speculation by dropping out of appearing in the upcoming series of Celebs Go Dating.
