In photos obtained by The Sun, the Celebrity Big Brother UK costars were recently spotted kissing on a pool floatie at an adults-only hotel in Mexico. Hughes, 32, appeared to hold a drink in his hand as he leaned in toward Siwa, 22.
Us Weekly has reached out to Siwa and Hughes’ reps for comment.
The kissing pic comes shortly after Siwa and Hughes fueled relationship speculation by sharing several photos of each other via Instagram. “This years birthday week was more magical than anything

She continued, “Full of surprises, family time, performing, chilling, laughing, loving, smiling, and good meaningful cries. Absolutely beautiful, wouldn’t change a single thing a week I’ll remember for the rest of my life.”
Siwa’s snaps included one in which she and Hughes hold hands, as well as photos of them sharing breakfast, cuddling on a couch together and Hughes placing his hand on her leg.
In an Instagram post of his own, Hughes shared a pic of he and Siwa hanging out in a pool. “The previous 7 days have been the prettiest.. 
,” he captioned the Tuesday, May 20, post, which featured more snaps of Hughes with Siwa and her family.
Siwa and Hughes met while competing on Celebrity Big Brother UK earlier this year. In addition to frequently being shown snuggling in bed together, writing each other secret messages and giving each other makeovers Hughes came to Siwa’s defense when she faced homophobic comments from fellow housemate Mickey Rourke.
Siwa also got candid about her sexuality with Hughes, revealing she no longer identified as a lesbian but as queer. Siwa broke up with her ex Kath Ebbs shortly after the show’s end, exclusively telling Us in her digital cover story earlier this month that Hughes “had absolutely nothing to do with my breakup.”
While Ebbs, 27, doesn’t believe any actual cheating went on between Siwa and Hughes on the reality series, they told Betches earlier this month that they were still hurt by their onscreen and closeness.
“I genuinely just thought that because of the Mickey Rouke thing, she had kind of trauma bonded a bit to Chris as he was the only one that stood up for her and didn’t gaslight her,” Ebbs told the outlet in an interview published on May 14. “So I thought that was a trauma bond that had kind of gone too far because of the environment in which they were in.”
Siwa gave an update on her bond with Hughes in her Us digital cover story. “We still speak all the time, obviously, naturally,” she shared. “Now to be out of the house, we just exist, and it is what it is. We’re happy, and we have each other. It’s a great little special friendship that we have.”
The Dance Moms alum also called herself the “No. 1 JoJo and Chris stan,” adding, “I see all the edits and I’m like, ‘I wanna see more dancing. I wanna see more of what’s happening.’ I am the scroller on TikTok now. I understand why the people are enjoying it.”
