Their bond—also apparent by their body language, with Chris seen kissing JoJo on the cheek, and the two cuddling—led to speculation among fans that their relationship had turned romantic. On the finale, the 32-year-old addressed the issue.
“We’re just messing around—we’re being kids,” he said. “JoJo was like a pure rock to me. She was someone I can have fun with.”
Chris continued defending their dynamic, saying, “From a friendship point of view, yeah, of course I love her.”
“It was just a friendship,” he continued, “which is only going to get stronger.”
Kath said viewers witnessed “emotional cheating” and “the over-crossing of boundaries” on Celebrity Big Brother UK. “It took that person less than an hour to follow through,” they continued. “In terms of Mr. Christopher, I don’t know. I have opinions, [but] I’m not gonna say them now. In terms of their relationship, that’s their journey, enjoy.”
