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.’
The singer was pictured at LAX airport on Monday as she arrived back with her mum Jessalynn and taking to Instagram the star has already hinted at her return to the UK
However, despite Chris telling hosts Cat Deeley, 48, and Ben, 50, that the pair shared a strong bond, body language expert Judi James has said he is already ‘feeling awkward’ and trying to ‘pull away’ from ‘besotted’ JoJo.
She told : ‘The body language during this first “couples” interview suggests this is a reality “no-mance” with Chris in particular gently but carefully uncoupling professionally, and maybe also emotionally, from JoJo, who shows some signs of wanting to remain in their bliss-bubble a little longer’.
Judi also pointed out Chris, who was sat closest to the hosts, mirrored their body language to ‘define himself on their team’ and not with JoJo, who was at the end of the sofa looking up at him ‘like a child trying to get attention’.
‘Chris’s attention when JoJo did get it involved a patting of her leg, which was a parental-looking signal to calm down as he turned his attention fully back to the presenters’.
