Reality star JoJo Siwa has announced that she will propose to Chris Hughes if he doesn’t ask her to marry him.
The 22-year-old singer met the 32-year-old reality TV star while filming Celebrity Big Brother earlier this year. JoJo revealed her marriage intentions with Chris, especially after he insisted he wouldn’t pop the question at Christmas.
Chris expressed his thoughts in an interview with The Sun’s Fabulous magazine. “You always get people who get engaged at Christmas. I see it on Instagram every year. I like the idea of it not being at a time where it could be expected,” he stated.
JoJo shared a playful exchange with Chris, saying, “When he asked me what I wanted for Christmas, I said ‘a ring’. And he said ‘really?’ I replied ‘a Ring doorbell’. But what if I got him a ring?”
However, Chris was adamant, responding, “You can’t. I don’t think you should propose. I don’t agree. I’ve spoken to people about this before. And I actually said ‘I think if I was proposed to that would make me really uncomfortable’.”
Despite this, JoJo has set a timeline for any potential proposal, giving Chris a seven-year limit before she takes matters into her own hands. “I wouldn’t do it unless you waited seven years. And then I’d be like ‘alright, I’m getting down on one knee then’. If you waited that long, I’d be like ‘ok’,” she said.
To this, Chris replied, “That’s fair. It shouldn’t take you seven years to work out if you want to marry someone. So you can go off that and then that won’t ever happen.”
JoJo playfully warned him, “Just so you know, May 27th 2032, I will be down on one knee. I will not wait one extra day.”
Although the pair were believed to have started dating in June, JoJo confirmed they actually got together secretly the month before.
