JoJo Siwa has opened up about the trauma she suffered in a previous relationship.

The former Dance Moms star has revealed she went through a traumatic experience during her last relationship.

During the latest episode of Alex Cooper's Call Her Daddy podcast, JoJo confirmed she is single after splitting from TikTok star Avery Cyrus in December 2022.

"My last relationship was very public, by both of our choice," the 20-year-old explained. "Our getting together was very public, our official relationship was very public, our breakup was very public."

The singer/dancer continued: "There has been a lot that went down, that if this microphone wasn't on, I would tell you what she did, what she told me anonymously, but I had to have my security team handle it and I found out it was her."

JoJo told the podcast host that she didn't realise at the time that the experience had traumatised her.

"It built a trauma I didn't even know I have," she shared. "Until now I'm like, 'Oh that's why you can't talk to a girl, because of that.' It's hard, I'm very focused right now. I'm very into my art, I'm very into my career, so I'm very lucky I have that to preoccupy me. But I love love."

When asked why she couldn't give more details about the experience, JoJo replied, "It's a whole ass legal thing behind closed doors."

The dancer then explained how she found out about the incident.

"At first, I had a weird gut instinct and I was like, 'I bet it's...'," she recalled. "I sent it to my team and he was like, 'We need to have a call, because it is somebody that was very, very close to you that did this.' And I knew. And at first I was like, 'Okay, eh. Whatever.' Then I was like, 'Wait, that's actually not okay.' And then it didn't hit me again until I tried to date again."
