Chris Hughes had to delete an intimate picture with JoJo Siwa after receiving backlash.
On the weekend, the former Love Island contestant, 32, fuelled dating rumours by posting a snap of himself and the Dance Moms alum, 22, cuddling up in bed.
In the viral intimate picture, shirtless Chris can be seen planting a sweet kiss on JoJo’s forehead as she rested her head on his chest.
He called his rumoured girlfriend “Sleeepinnn beauty” in the caption.

However, shortly after receiving backlash from social media users Chris deleted the photo.
A user wrote on X, “She literally looks like a child next to him. Finding out he’s 32 and she’s 21 makes this extra weird.”
Another criticised, “Am I the only one who finds him posting them in such an intimate moment strange.”
“The fact he groomed her on national TV when she was in a relationship is crazy and people aren't even talking about it,” a third noted.
