Global music star JoJo Siwa has yet again been sighted with her rumoured Aussie partner, with the pair enjoying a loved-up date in the US.

It appears things are going strong between US music star JoJo Siwa and her new Australian love interest.

Siwa, 21, was first spotted with local actor Kath Ebbs, who is a friend of Abbie Chatfield, in Bondi earlier this month, where the pair enjoyed a date at a coffee shop.

Now, the duo have been spotted out and about in Siwa’s home country, where paparazzi photographed the two going for a walk in Toluca Lake, California.

Siwa and Ebbs looked loved up during the low-key outing, with the former child star seen kissing Ebbs on the head as they walked with their arms around one another.

It’s not known how the pair met, though Siwa visited Sydney in late November to perform at the TikTok Awards.

A week after the event, Siwa was still enjoying some down time in the harbour city, where she was spotted kissing Ebbs in Bondi, marking the first time they were seen together publicly.

Siwa, who came out as gay in 2021, previously dated best friend Kylie Prew for several months in 2021, and more recently, shared a three-month relationship with Dakayla Wilson. Siwa confirmed they had split in November.

A former child star who had a huge pre-teen fanbase through her work with Nickelodeon, Siwa recently revealed her career took a hit when she decided to come out.

“The president of the network called me and was like, ‘What are we going to tell the kids?’ I was like, ‘What do you mean?’ He was like, ‘What are we going to tell kids and parents?’” Siwa revealed to Demi Lovato in Lovato’s recent Hulu documentary, Child Star.

“I was like, ‘That I’m happy? What? You want me to tell them I’m making out with a girl? I’m not going to tell them that.’”

Ebbs, for their part, starred as Asher Nesmith in three episodes of Neighbours in 2022, heralding the long-running soap’s first non-binary character.

At the time of their casting, Ebbs, who has more than 80,000 Instagram followers, took to their social media to celebrate the news.

“As someone who grew up watching this iconic soap it was an honour to not only be a part of this amazing cast, but to be that representation I so desperately needed as kid,” Ebbs wrote.

“I hope I’ve done my community proud and you enjoy Asher as much as I enjoyed playing them.

“Here for a good time, not a long time!”
