JoJo celebrated her 31st birthday on December 20th.

In another photo, JoJo and Dexter cheers bottles of champagne while sitting on the floor and staring lovingly into each other’s eyes.

It’s assumed that JoJo and Dexter have been dating since Spring 2020, with Dexter making his first appearance on JoJo’s social media reading a poem about racial in justice in June 2020. Dexter posted JoJo on his ‘gram for the first time in October 2021, hyping up her latest EP. “The Bravest Artist I know on the planet just dropped her E.P and it’s available everywhere. Usually I say it’s The Thought that counts, but try not to think about it and just go ahead and BUY this one!” he gushed. “‘Trying Not To Think About It’ is a project that is Vulnerable, Honest, Motivational, Emotional, and most importantly True! So many people Battle with their Brain, and are afraid to express when they feel like they’re loosing this battle. You guys are NOT ALONE! 🍀 @iamjojo thank you for not only creating a Piece of Art, but for also encouraging others to talk about the state of their mental health!
