KATH Ebbs might be heartbroken after their split with Celebrity Big Brother’s JoJo Siwa – yet they are getting by with the help of their friends.
The Aussie influencer, 27, has been backed by their nearest and dearest – with fellow social media star Abbie Chatfield branding JoJo, 21, a “reality TV genius” as the break-up played out.

It came after actress and singer JoJo formed a blossoming connection with Love Island alum Chris, 32, in the spy house – a bond they say is purely platonic.
Now Cartia Mallan, 26, has showcased her close bond with Kath in the aftermath of the split, taking to TikTok to reassure fans “don’t worry everyone mummy is home to look after our Kath.”
She posted a video showing her making her way back to her London apartment, filming herself walking through the streets before opening up her apartment door.
Kath could be seen snug in a grey hoodie at the breakfast bar, looking up as her mate entered.
They flashed Cartia a thumbs-up before wrapping each other in a hug.
Cartia then carried her pal as she showed how she was looking after the heartbroken star.
In the text over the video slide, she wrote: “Flying back to London to do our national duty.”
One fan was quick to write of Kath: “I’m glad they have support after such a traumatising experience.”
Cartia then posted a crying Emoji as well as a series of red love hearts.
Another follower wrote: “This is the best thing on the internet right now !!! I don’t even know Kath and all I want to do is hold them.”
A second put: “I need friends like this.”
A third wrote: “Please tell them that they’ve handled it all so well and should be proud of themselves. Love form another Aussie watching on in horror xx”
SPEAKING OUT
This weekend Kath revealed they had been dumped by the Dance Moms alum during the wrap party for the reality series.
It came despite the fact the couple had been “discussing marriage” – with Kath’s best pal then sticking in the knife on the real reason for JoJo’s decision.
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.
Taking to Instagram on Saturday, Australian content creator Kath, said they were in “complete shock” and felt “numbed out and humiliated” after being dumped by JoJo.
A day after the chat, Kath was pictured for the first time since the split.
They had told how dancer JoJo had “fallen in love” with the Love Island alum during their time in the compound.
After posing a video all about their break-up, one fan of Kath’s commented on their clip to say: “Imagine watching your partner fall in love with someone else in real time. Cannot even begin to fathom that.”
Appearing to confirm that this is exactly how they were feeling, Kath, who identifies as non-binary, liked the comment in question.
It is the most telling sign yet that Kath has been negatively affected by JoJo’s bond with Chris.
SPEAKING OUT
This week, JoJo appeared to take a swipe at Kath as she touched down in LA.
She was asked of her biggest learning experience from the show and said: “Biggest takeaway? Probably [that I] learned more about myself and yeah I think that I had a lot of things in my life I wasn’t happy about.
“And being there forced me to change that, and that’s good.
“I needed that.”
OPENING UP
It came hours after JoJo clarified her relationship status with Chris in an interview on Monday’s This Morning.
Speaking about where Chris and JoJo go from here, regarding their “close” friendship, Chris said they have a “really strong bond” – calling it a “soulmate friendship”.
Chris said: “Our friendship, it’s hard to explain… it’s just a really strong bond between two people, it’s just a strong friendship.
“I think you can have a soulmate friendship, that’s the thing.
“To me, it’s that energy when it’s not the standard friendship you have with your friends, but it’s still a friendship, we are friends.
“It’s nice, I found it strange because it was such a strong friendship.
“Having someone in there to go through an experience like that and have someone there everyday when you’re emotional, when you’re happy… that was beautiful, that was genuinely an amazing thing.”
Ben then grilled the pair and asked if it was just “platonic” or if it could develop into something “romantic”.
JoJo laughed and said: “He’s a gorgeous boy, look, he’s a great guy, it is platonic, we have a lot of fun together.
Life is life and I don’t know any future of anything but I’m really grateful for the dynamic that we have and the bond that we have.
“Whatever life does, life will do.”
