More on Christine McGuinness
Christine said: 'Let them live. I've sort of gone through, not that situation, but similar.
'Being in the public eye and feeling the need to explain your sexuality which I don't think anyone needs to at all. JoJo is so young, she's growing and learning like we all are. Life changes.'
Christine continued to tell the Situationship podcast : 'One of the best things about being an adult is that you can change your mind at any time. JoJo, I think she's always been open about the fact she's queer and that's how she refers to herself.
'She loves whoever she loves and it's not necessarily about gender. Although I don't put a label on myself, it kind of is how I feel.

JoJo Siwa says she'll NEVER break up with Chris Hughes saying their relationship is 'earthquake proof'
'I just think, it's not anybody's

. It's called private life for a reason. People think you're in the public eye and we're entitled to know what you're up to. I've had it the last couple of years and it's not

The star ended by saying: 'Sexuality has been a big part of it and it shouldn't be. Two people have met and they're really happy and they're exploring whether it's a friendship or a relationship.'
During a private chat in the bedroom on Big Brother, JoJo confessed: "I feel so queer," as co-star Danny Beard then responded: "I'm queer!"

JoJo Siwa and Kath Ebbs' relationship
We look back at JoJo Siwa's romance with Kath Ebbs:
JoJo Siwa went public with hers and Kath Ebbs' relationship in January 2025.
The Dance Moms star had been introduced to 27-year-old Australian content creator Kath by a mutual friend called G-Flip six months earlier.
JoJo had split with her girlfriend Dakayla Wilson in November 2024 and it is believed she hooked up romantically with Kath soon after.
Speaking in March at the 36th Annual GLAAD Media Awards, JoJo said of her relationship: 'I am so happy. I am in a very mature relationship, and it's beautiful. It's taught me so much about life.
'It's taught me so much about love and respect, and it's a beautiful thing.
'It's different in more ways than I can count. I wouldn't even know what to say the biggest is 'cause just everything is so different and special.'
Kath even claimed they had talked about marriage together.
However, JoJo's romance with Kath abruptly hit the skids on April 25, 2025, at the Celebrity Big Brother wrap party.
JoJo dumped Kath at the bash after spending 19 days in the CBB house - where she had grown close to Love Island star Chris Hughes.
She added: "I do live this very, very big public life that has so many eyeballs on it, and it can get really hard to navigate.
"But I'm also living a human life. You can't help who you love."
The term queer is defined by LGBTQ
charity
Stonewall as "a term used by those wanting to reject specific labels of sexual orientation and/or gender identity".

John Torode's wife Lisa Faulkner breaks silence after MasterChef star sacked ‘for using racist slur'
JOHN Torode's wife Lisa Faulkner has broken her silence after the MasterChef star was sacked for allegedly using a racist slur. The top TV chef, 59, was said to be heartbroken after the BBC and production firm Banijay confirmed his following the Advertisement 3 John Torode's wife Lisa Faulkner has spoken out after her husband was sacked Credit: PA 3 She penned a message on Instagram Credit: lisafaulknercooks 3 Former MasterChef hosts John Torode, 59, and Gregg Wallace, 60, Credit: BBC Earlier this month, the broadcaster confirmed the host's contract would not be renewed after a report found he had used an 'extremely offensive racist term' during drinks after filming. Torode confirmed to The Sun that this allegation referred to him, but denied that it had ever happened. Now, in a video uploaded to Instagram today, his wife Lisa broke her silence for the first time. She said: "Hi there, I just wanted to check in and say hello and I'm here. Advertisement "Just thank you for all your really lovely comments because they really mean a lot, so thank you." Wallace, 60, was dropped from the BBC cooking competition in November 2024 amid numerous allegations of inappropriate conduct in the workplace. A BBC report which upheld 45 of 83 allegations of bad behaviour against Wallace also upheld a claim that a second person used a racial phrase once several years ago - which emerged to be Torode. Torode has denied the claims and said he has 'no recollection' of the event.

Gregg Wallace breaks silence on racism claim against MasterChef co-host John Torode The BBC was unable to specify the time or date of the allegation, narrowing it down to '2018 or 2019'.

The Australian began presenting the BBC cooking contest alongside Wallace in 2005.
