Life & Style takes a look back at JoJo's exes as well as past and current relationships.



Mark Bontempo JoJo's first-ever public relationship was with Mark Bontempo in August 2020. The pair dated for a few months before calling it quits. "I am single as a Pringle right now. But Mark and I did break up. We were together for three months and it was great," she told Entertainment Tonight after their split in December 2020. "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." Courtesy of Mark Bontempo/Instagram

Kath Ebbs JoJo began her relationship with Kath Ebbs in November 2024, months before JoJo left overseas to appear on Celebrity Big Brother: UK. While on the competition show, JoJo made headlines for her touchy relationship with Love Island alum and housemate Chris Hughes. JoJo's relationship with Kath seemingly couldn't handle the pressure as the pair split at the show's wrap party in April 2025. "I'll be honest, that was not a plan," she said on the U.K.'s This Morning in April 2025. "That was not an intention, that was not supposed to happen like that. Initially, I was told that the wrap party was something [Kath] didn't want to attend, and then about an hour into the wrap party, they decided they wanted to. And so I was genuinely just going to have a conversation before and … they straight up asked me if I was happy and I said, ‘No.'" Kath spoke out about their breakup in a new statement to Life & Style on May 1, 2025, explaining, "It's really unfortunate that my relationship with this person is being reduced to untrue allegations about what happened at a party. The public has only heard one side of the story. Attacks on my character are not something I take lightly, especially from someone I cared for deeply and shared a committed relationship with."
