She continued in her Instagram caption: ‘So very grateful for the love and support I received from you while I was in the house.
‘Being so vulnerable and not know what the world will do or say was scary, but coming out of the house and seeing the absolute outpour of love and support that happened while I was in there was just wild and made me cry with tears of happiness.
‘It makes me very emotional and just means so much. Thank you❤️’
She added: ‘I’ve learned so much about my self in the Big Brother House and wouldn’t change a thing about the journey. I wish I could go back in time and live it over and over again.’

Host Ben Shephard asked if she wanted anything more, to which JoJo said: ‘Look, he’s a great guy. It’s platonic. We have a lot of fun together. I don’t know the future, whatever life does, it will do.’
JoJo also revealed more details about her split from former partner Kath, saying: ‘Honestly when I went into the house, day one was fun, day two fun, but then day three I was in my own thoughts, away from everyone I know and outside opinions.
‘I sat with myself and really realised things I was okay with in my life I never should have been okay with. So many things.
‘Obviously I wanted to hold them inside, didn’t want to air it out publicly. There were things I knew I shouldn’t be okay with and I’m not happy.
‘I knew as soon as I got out I wanted to fix things and make the changes I needed to make.
‘The first thing you want to do is exactly what you need to make it as good as you can.’
Recounting how the pair ended things at the show’s wrap party, she elaborated: ‘I’ll be honest, that was not a plan or my intention. It wasn’t supposed to happen like that’.
‘They weren’t going to come, then an hour into the party they attended, one thing lead to another, they asked if I was happy and I said no. The conversation took place there.’
