Their sweet TikToks and Instagrams, not to mention their adorable Disneyland trips, were beloved by many, but it seems like the teens have ended their time together.
A source told E! News the JoJo and Kylie “split weeks ago”.
Fans have been speculating that the couple are no longer together since around the time JoJo started her Dancing With The Stars gig, with many TikToks pointing out that neither have been posting together on Instagram for a month.
The last time JoJo featured Kylie on her page was on September 26th when she shared a series of pictures of the couple with an adorable puppy.
“Happy daughters day to our sweeeet little pup:)!!🐶❤️😭🌈,” JoJo captioned the post.
LA-based JoJo has previously spoken about how hard the long distance was between herself and Kylie, who lives in Florida.
“We had to say goodbye today and I’m sad,” JoJo said in April. “It happens every time we say goodbye, and I wish we didn’t have to ever. But we do. And it just makes the [times] when we get to say hi to each other even more special.”
The couple originally met on a cruise ship, where the Dance Moms alum recalled that their connection was instant.
“I told her my whole spiel that I tell everyone when they ask me my life story,” JoJo told People. “She goes, ‘I could have Googled that. I want to know your life story. You just told me about your career. I want to know about you.’ And I was like, No one’s ever asked me that before.”
JoJo and Kylie became fast friends and grew even closer for over a year, before beginning to officially date on January 8th.
The DWTS contestant then officially began her public coming out journey on January 20th by lip-syncing to Paramore’s Ain’t It Fun with the LA Pride House on TikTok. Following that, she lip-synced to Lady Gaga’s Born This Way, and tweeted herself donning a gifted T-shirt from a relative which read: “Best Gay Cousin.”
JoJo soon after confirmed she was part of the LGBTQIA+ community, maintaining that she doesn’t want to put a label on herself as she is still figuring it out.
“I don’t know, bisexual, pansexual, queer, lesbian, gay, straight. I always just say gay because it just kind of covers it or queer because I think the keyword is cool,” she told People in April.
A month after she came out, JoJo appeared on Jimmy Fallon’s Tonight Show to gush about her partner at the time deeming her “the most amazing, wonderful, perfect, most beautiful girlfriend in the whole world”, while also revealing that Kylie was actually the one who encouraged her to come out.
Prior to dating Kylie, JoJo also was in a relationship with musician Mark Bontempo for three months, before the pair amicably parted ways in November 2020.
JoJo confirmed their split in November 2020 via an Instagram comment after her ex was reportedly receiving some negativity online.
“Mark doesn’t deserve hateful things like this. He deserves to have people support him,” the dancer wrote in defence of her former partner. “You have NO idea about Mark and I’s relationship. How much fun it was. How happy we both were, and how happy we both are. We decided it’s best for us to not be in a relationship … that’s all.”
She added: “We’re teenagers. And our relationship didn’t work out right now. He did nothing. I did nothing. Just better being friends. Relax.”
The D.R.E.AM. singer explained more about their decision to end things in an interview with ET last December.
“(Mark and I) were together for three months and it was great. We had fun, we drove through Taco Bell, I think, 450 times. We had some really fun nights. We never actually had any hard times, we never fought, we never were mad at each other. It was honestly a great time.”
“It just, we had to work. He had to do some things in his life that I wanted to be there for him, but he had to be there 250 percent for himself. And I didn’t want to take away from him being able to be there for himself.”
