Jojo Siwa and Chris Hughes Surprise Mum on Royal Caribbean Cruise

A mum got more than she bargained for when she received help from two “kind souls” while on board a Royal Caribbean cruise. To her surprise, the pair were none other than American singer Jojo Siwa and reality star Chris Hughes. The couple, who went public with their relationship after meeting in the Celebrity Big Brother house earlier this year, are now making waves again, but this time for their sweet interaction with a baby onboard the cruise.

Jojo and Chris have faced their fair share of criticism due to their 10-year age gap, with Chris, 32, being older than Jojo, who turned 22 in May. Jojo’s past as a queer woman also left many fans surprised by her relationship with a man.

Despite the drama, the couple was all smiles as they relaxed on the Star of the Seas cruise ship. In heartwarming footage shared on TikTok, Jojo can be seen gently stroking the back of an adorable baby girl as the little one snuggles in. The clip cuts to Chris holding the child, both of them pulling funny faces to engage her, reported the Mirror.

The video, filmed by the baby’s mum, Rach Sullivan, shows the couple offering to hold the child so Rach could be hands-free for a moment. Rach added text over the video, saying, “When kind souls offer to hold your baby so you can be hands-free for a moment and now your baby won’t let you take her back.” In the caption, Rach wrote, “Rosie found some unexpected babysitters on the cruise.”

The video quickly went viral, amassing over 7.5 million views and more than 1,400 comments from viewers. Jojo herself commented, “Best friends forever,” while Chris added, “She’s gorgeous and so is Rosie, what a wonderful happy baby and family.”

Fans shared their thoughts, with one saying, “Something my mum has always told me: ‘Babies and animals can tell who actually loves them.’” Another commenter referenced Chris’s time on Love Island, writing, “They’ve clearly never seen Chris with his baby Cash from Love Island.”

Even the official Royal Caribbean account couldn’t help but gush over the moment, commenting, “Can’t handle the cuteness overload.” Fans were quick to notice the amusing twist—one person wrote, “The kind soul being Jojo Siwa and not a stranger omg lol,” to which someone replied, “It’s def a stranger to that baby.”

Others jokingly speculated about the couple’s future, with one saying, “If Chris and Jojo announce they’re having a baby in the next couple of months, we know who to blame.” Another added, “Babies don’t cuddle just anyone like that. She knows she’s a kind soul.”

One fan even admitted, “Crying over Jojo Siwa holding a baby wasn’t on my bingo card today,” while another wrote, “I don’t care what people say about JoJo Siwa. Anything I ever hear or see about her from a ‘regular person’ is that she is so kind and always makes time for her fans. I am so happy she’s happy.”

The heartwarming clip not only shows a sweet moment for Jojo and Chris but also sparked a wave of positive reactions from fans who are clearly fond of the couple’s genuine kindness.
