JoJo Siwa—yes, the glittery bow-wearing pop tornado you may have met on Dance Moms—is here, not just serving looks, but some seriously candid love life updates. The 21-year-old’s past love life has been about as low-key as her sparkly stage outfits, which means…not low-key at all. Remember her ex, Avery Cyrus? Yeah, that romance was trending right up until its very public 2022 finale.
But recently, JoJo’s inner “romance vow” cracked like an iPhone screen after a gravity challenge, and she’s finally letting us in on her new relationship with girlfriend Dakayla Wilson. Here’s the scoop:
Turns out, JoJo once tried to pledge a vow of silence about her love life. The attempt was earnest—her mom even sat her down for the classic “You can keep some secrets, JoJo” chat, which was basically the equivalent of telling JoJo to keep a glitter bomb in a Tupperware. According to JoJo (as quoted via People), her mom’s advice fell a little flat. Secrets? Sis, that’s hard!
And when it comes to love, JoJo said, “I was kind of born to share my life with the world, and I’m OK with that and I enjoy that.” Translation: JoJo’s heart doesn’t do “off-limits.” Her TikTok, Insta, and your phone notifications will just have to deal.
Now, JoJo did have a “great relationship” right after coming out, but then things got…interesting. “I had a public relationship with somebody else that wasn’t the best,” she confessed. “I mean, it seemed like the best. We were practically an Instagram filter away from relationship goals—but actually? Not so much.” Turns out, when the ‘gram fades and you’re left with real life, things can get real, real quick. After that, she was spooked, saying, “Lemme just not.” That’s when she made a vow: no more love life posts. Nada. Zip.
But JoJo being JoJo, life wasn’t going to stay that way for long. Post-pledge, she had one “serious relationship” and two mysterious “flings” that apparently stayed under wraps. Yup, JoJo Siwa—a girl who put glitter on the map—had a phase as a stealth dater. Wild, right?
Then Dakayla Wilson arrived and spun JoJo’s “no-sharing” pledge on its neon-sneakered heel. “I got into a relationship with an incredible girl,” she said, clearly swooning. “I was OK to go public with her. She feels special and we’re in a very comfortable place.” Basically, JoJo realized that sometimes, the right love is just too sparkly to keep under wraps.
“We’re both still figuring life out,” JoJo added, like she’s dishing about an exclusive crush on her YouTube channel. “We’re not perfect, but we have fun. I love the girl. She loves me and we’re having a good time.”
Well, JoJo, the public can’t wait to watch this chapter unfold. So here’s to JoJo and Dakayla—living, laughing, loving, and of course, probably TikTok-ing it all with some bedazzled flair.
