Siwa wrote: 'Cats outta the bag' with Wilson responding: 'surprise shawtyyyyy.'
They first met when Siwa was a judge on Wilson's season of So You Think You Can Dance, on which she placed second.
JoJo also opened up about her romance with Dakayla and their decision to go public with to LadyGunn Magazine in September.
'Honestly I've been very open about not wanting to be public,' Siwa began.
'And so when we kind of got together, it was just — it was literally one day where she was teaching a dance class and the girls in the class and the boys in the class were like, kind of looking at us. Then one was like, "Why are you here, JoJo?" And finally I just came up to her and I was like, "Yeah, why am I here?"'
Siwa continued, 'And I gave her [Wilson] the look like, "It's okay, you can say," and then they were videoing that, and so we were like, "You know what? It's public.'"'
'Things change,' Wilson added.
The couple hasn’t revealed how long they’ve been dating, but Wilson shared that dancing is a favorite pastime for them.

They also enjoy game nights, while Siwa added that they often watch movies, binge TV shows, and prefer ordering takeout over cooking.
'We don't cook for nothing,' Siwa joked.
JoJo first gained attention as a contestant on Abby’s Ultimate Dance Competition in 2013, later joining the cast of Dance Moms alongside her mother, Jessalynn Siwa.
Her big break came when she released her debut single Boomerang in 2016, which became a viral hit for its anti-bullying message, amassing over a billion views on YouTube.
Siwa quickly built a personal brand with her signature oversized bows and colorful, energetic persona, leading to a lucrative merchandise empire and a successful YouTube channel.
By her late teens, she had expanded into acting, publishing, and a nationwide concert tour, cementing her status as a teen icon.
