JoJo Siwa on her earlier relationships

The 'Dance Moms' star said, “You know, it's interesting. My mom always used to tell me, 'The whole world doesn't need to know everything. JoJo. You can keep some things a secret.' And I was like, 'Yeah, yeah, totally.'"  

"Secrets are hard to keep. It's so hard to keep. When you're so excited about something ... I was kind of born to share my life with the world, and I'm OK with that and I enjoy that," Siwa explained.

While talking about privacy, especially in a relationship, the artist said, "I mean, I started out in a great relationship. When I first came out, I was in a very, very good relationship," she said, reported People

"We were young. I mean, I was 17 and she was 16. Odds are — sorry if anybody's 17 or 16 — but odds are your relationship is not going to work at that age. And if you're older than that, or if you have a 17 and 16-year-old and you see them and they think they're getting married, you can laugh at that because we all know it's not how it works. Sometimes, some high school sweethearts do work out. There is a very small percentage, but it was just very cute, typical," said Siwa. 

She further shared with the panel, "But then after that, I had a public relationship with somebody else that wasn't the best — it kind of seemed like it was the best, but it really wasn't the best. And then, after it ended, it was really not the best. And it just scared me from sharing relationships publicly." 

"It wasn't anything that really the world did. It was more what went on between the two of us. And I was like, you know what? Lemme just not. So then, I pledged to myself that I wasn't going to share a relationship anymore,” she shared while admitting that she did alright as she kept her next few affairs private.

What changed for JoJo Siwa after meeting Dakayla Wilson?

A lot changed for JoJo Siwa after meeting her now-girlfriend Dakayla Wilson.

"Just around three months ago, I got into a relationship with an incredible girl and it's been interesting. I was OK to go public with her. She feels special and we're in a very comfortable place. I've never really been in this place that I'm at with her in a relationship before," Siwa reasoned.

She added, "I'm also so young. I'm 21. She's also young. She's only 19. We're both still figuring life out and I think I accepted that. I've accepted we're both figuring life out. We're not perfect, but we have fun. I love the girl. She loves me and we're having a good time."
