Split rumours have plagued Katie and JJ over recent months but the pair have denied this. Katie recently revealed why she doesn’t live with boyfriend JJ almost two years into their relationship.

She told her fans: “People have to realise JJ owns his own house and he owns his flat. He rents his flat out and his house is like a new build, like a show home. I can’t remember the last time I went there. He actually has got a good eye.”
Katie didn’t say whether the pair would eventually move in together or if that was off the cards for the foreseeable. Katie and JJ started dating in February 2024 and have been an item ever since.
However, they have has their ups and downs in their relationship already. Katie seemed to delete all traces of her boyfriend from her Instagram page back in May but it seems they worked things out and are now loved up again.
