JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes Attend Dancers Against Cancer Gala
The couple appeared affectionate on the red carpet at the Los Angeles event.
JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes displayed affection as they attended the Dancers Against Cancer's 2026 Gala Of The Stars on Thursday in Los Angeles.
The couple posed on the red carpet at the Beverly Hilton Hotel for the event, which aims to raise funds for individuals affected by cancer.
Siwa, 23, wore a white lace mini dress with a collared detail, complemented by glittering nude heels. Hughes, 33, wore an all-black ensemble.
Siwa's parents, Jessalynn and Tom Siwa, also attended, joining the couple for photographs.
Siwa's white dress was noted as fitting for the occasion, as Hughes had previously shared his intentions to propose.
The couple, who met during their time in the British Celebrity Big Brother house last year, celebrated their one-year anniversary in May.
Hughes has spoken about his readiness to propose, telling The Sun that he is considering spontaneity for the proposal but knows "when it feels right, I'll know." He also expressed a desire for a family, stating, "I come from a family where you get married, you have children, and that's what life's all about."
Hughes also discussed the challenges of their long-distance relationship, telling the Daily Mail in May that he has "embraced" them. He explained that they maintained contact by seeing each other monthly, either in the UK or the US, and that he enjoys visiting America and spending time with Siwa and her family.
He described the distance as "tricky" but not as strenuous as perceived, adding that the ability to travel makes the arrangement manageable. He acknowledged missing each other is normal but emphasized that the relationship is not as "physically demanding or as stressful" as people might assume.
