Just hours in to this year's series of Celebrity Big Brother, fans of the show were quick to a predict a romance between reality stars Ella Wise and Chris Hughes, with many thinking bosses may even push for a 'showmance' story.

However, Chris and Ella didn't actually spent much time together, with Chris establishing a loving friendship with American singer and dancer JoJo Siwa.

Chris and JoJo have had each other's backs in the house, with the pair even enjoying hugs in bed, with Chris tickling the 21-year-old's back and admitting he 'missed her' whilst he was sleeping.

Now, as the final takes place tonight (Friday 25th April), JoJo and Chris' relationship has intensified, after Chris comforted her following a letter from her partner Kath, and her mum, where they failed to tell her they 'loved her'.

After admitting she has 'beef' with Kath and her mum in the Diary Room for their lack of affection in the written letter, JoJo got upset as she told Chris she was 'confused', telling the former Love Island star: "I feel very grateful. I feel very confused. I feel very happy."

Why Chris asked why she's feeling confused, JoJo replied with: "Just am", before adding: "I feel very lucky. I feel guilty for how happy I've been. Like, I've been so happy."

Later on as the pair went to bed, Chris asked: "Are you sure you're alright?"

When JoJo replied: "I've been better," Chris asked again: "What's up? Tell me."

Hinting she would tell him something when they left the house, JoJo then said: "Give me 48 hours," before adding: "Love you, appreciate you. You're a special one."

After seeing the scenes play out on Thursday (24th April) night's show, viewers took to social media to express their shock and confusion at JoJo's statement, with many wondering what she has to tell Chris.

One wrote: 'GIVE ME 48 HOURS. They way I GASPED #jojosiwa #CBBUK', with another adding: ' GIVE ME 48 HOURS!? For there to be no cameras, Jojo!? TELL US NOW!'. (sic)

Another added: 'Hmm, I always thought Jojo and Chris were just really close mates. But after Jojo saying ‘give me 48 hours’ and ‘love you’ to Chris…. It just seems a bit odd 🤔 #cbbuk' (sic)

Someone else asked: 'What do you mean 48 hours?!? WHAT DO YOU MEAN JOJO SIWA?!? #cbbuk'. (sic)

Another wrote: 'I think JoJo thinks he relationship is in trouble and that’s why she said “I will tell you in 48 hours”. Hopefully it will all be ok for her though as you don’t wish a breakup on anyone #CBBLL #CBBUK'. (sic)
