I&#8217;ve sort of gone through, not that situation, but similar.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBeing in the public eye and feeling the need to explain your sexuality which I don&#8217;t think anyone needs to at all. JoJo is so young, she&#8217;s growing and learning like we all are. Life changes.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cOne of the best things about being an adult is that you can change your mind at any time. JoJo, I think she&#8217;s always been open about the fact she&#8217;s queer and that&#8217;s how she refers to herself.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cShe loves whoever she loves and it&#8217;s not necessarily about gender. Although I don&#8217;t put a label on myself, it kind of is how I feel.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nChristine admitted some of JoJo\u2019s fans may feel \u201clet down\u201d now that she is dating a man.<\/p>\n<p>\nShe said: \u201cBecause she&#8217;s been out there so much as an advocate for the LGBTQIA+ community, I think some of them feel let down that she&#8217;s now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nChristine voiced her frustration over JoJo\u2019s love life being made public due to her high profile.<\/p>\n<p>\nShe explained: \u201cI just think, it&#8217;s not anybody&#8217;s business. It&#8217;s called private life for a reason. <\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cPeople think you&#8217;re in the public eye and we&#8217;re entitled to know what you&#8217;re up to. I&#8217;ve had it the last couple of years and it&#8217;s not nice.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cSexuality has been a big part of it and it shouldn&#8217;t be. Too people have met and they&#8217;re really happy and they&#8217;re exploring whether it&#8217;s a friendship or a relationship.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nJoJo recent emphasised she \u201cdoesn\u2019t need to explain [herself]\u201d amid her relationship with Chris.<\/p>\n<p>\nShe told E! News: \u201cI don&#8217;t need to explain myself because I feel so in the right position.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cI feel so content with my happiness, and I feel so relaxed and at ease with where I&#8217;m at. I feel so happy and peaceful that the love I feel is so real and so in front of me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/jojo-siwa-need-explain-sexuality-amid-chris-hughes-romance-christine-mcguinness-says-1420724.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>19 June 2025 Christine McGuinness has said JoJo Siwa shouldn\u2019t need to \u201cexplain\u201d her sexuality amid her budding romance with Chris Hughes.
