It was an emotional night in the Celebrity Big Brother house last night, as JoJo Siwa was in tears as she made an emotional admission in the Diary Room.
On Monday night, Dance Moms star JoJo was seen secretly writing a message on Love Island star Chris Hughes’ hand, breaking one of Big Brother’s fundamental rules. As a result, the two were punished and in last night’s episode, they were made to talk only through a mega phone.
The pair were then called to Big Brother’s Diary Room, where they clarified what they’d been speaking about in private. The pair assured housemates they weren’t talking about nominations – as they joked they were practicing their German and French.
However, JoJo later emotionally told Big Brother what she was really trying to tell Chris: “It’s something that I’m not ready necessarily to be open about or upfront about but it has to do with gender and how do I feel.
“I’ve met a lot of people in my life that are non-binary and these beautiful non-binary people are who I feel the most like. It’s not something that I want to say about myself yet but it’s something that is confusing. So, that’s probably why we were talking about it last night,” she said as JoJo thanked Big Brother for her honesty – as Chris put his arm around the star.
JoJo came out as pansexual in 2021. In recent interviews, she has described herself as gay and is currently dating Kath Ebbs, who is non binary. However, fans were left fuming at Big Brother, as they noticed that JoJo suggested she wasn’t sure she wanted to talk about her gender identity yet.
“Did NOT have to air that conversation with JoJo. She was pushed to share something that she didn’t seem ready to share. And they’ve broadcasted it. It would have been easier to… not have broadcasted it,” one person stated, as another said they should have edited it out.
Earlier on, JoJo was seen in the garden getting tearful as she opened up about the subject, as she was comforted by Chris, Trisha and Danny who said: “Who cares what the world thinks.”
Elsewhere in the show, Trisha Goddard became the second celebrity to be evicted from the Celebrity Big Brother house. Speaking to hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best, Trisha said she was “kinda sad” to have been evicted. She added: “A bit sad, I can’t lie.”
On Monday, housemates and the viewing public discovered that Patsy Palmer, Trisha Goddard and Jack P. Shepherd faced being eliminated. As soon as the nominations were announced, the star opened up to housemate Danny Beard, admitting she knew her time was up.
She told the Drag Race star that “soapies” Patsy, who stars in EastEnders and Jack, who plays David Platt in Coronation Street have a huge fan base behind them, something which she claimed she did not.
Celebrity Big Brother 2025 airs weeknights and Sundays at 9PM on ITV1 and ITVX.
