Siwa opened up about the little incident at the wrap party for "Celebrity Big Brother," where Ebbs claimed they felt "dumped" and humiliated in a now-deleted TikTok video. Siwa shared on "The Viall Files" that the situation was more complicated than it appeared.
She noted that Kath had initially planned to skip the party but ended up arriving late. During the event, Siwa recalled finding herself in a heated confrontation, acknowledging the anger directed at her.
She recalled expressing to her now ex that she was not in a position to engage in conversation at that kind of event. Despite the tensions, she revealed that Kath had requested she refrain from discussing their relationship and breakup.
Emphasizing the importance of respecting their wishes, Siwa noted that this request could make her seem avoidant to the public, but she clarified that she was not trying to evade the situation.
However, the current situation did not deter Siwa from expressing her happiness with her current circumstances, stating, "I'm so happy where I'm at right now that I just want to stay here."

When asked if there was potential for a romantic relationship, Siwa expressed uncertainty about the future but conveyed her gratitude for their dynamic, saying, "Whatever life does, life will do."

On Monday, The Blast shared that the star discussed her Big Brother house experience. Although the show lasted only three weeks, she felt it had given her four years' worth of reflection on her life and relationships.
This time alone prompted her to recognize aspects of her past relationship with the Australian podcaster and DJ that she no longer wanted to accept. Siwa also expressed gratitude for the support she received from her fellow castmate, Hughes, during this transformative experience.
While she did not directly name her ex, Siwa shared that this realization led her to take her mental health seriously after leaving the show. She took a bold approach to address the issues in her life, which resulted in a significant shift in her romantic standing with Ebbs

Ebbs' events narrative was heartbreaking as she only learned about her place in Siwa's life when she flew to London to celebrate her success on "CBB." According to the podcaster, reality dawned on her at the show's afterparty, where she felt abandoned while Hughes, her biggest nemesis, was nearby.
During this party, Siwa explicitly told Ebbs about the confusion regarding their relationship. Siwa reportedly admitted that, throughout the course of the show, she realized that Ebbs was not the person she envisioned for her future.
This revelation left Ebbs in shock, feeling humiliated and embarrassed, especially since she had traveled across the globe to be there for Siwa during one of her life's highlights.

While living together, Ebbs noted that Siwa often admired their relationship, emphasizing their strong trust. Siwa had reassured Ebbs of her commitment and willingness to tackle challenges as a team.
However, the dynamic shifted when Siwa voiced a desire for independence, ultimately deciding to end their relationship. This breakup was unexpected, especially in light of Siwa's controversial interactions with Hughes, which Ebbs perceived as a form of "emotional cheating."
Throughout these developments, Ebbs reflected on the situation, briefly considering their thoughts about Hughes but opting to keep those private. Overall, Ebbs found the experience to be "brutal" and felt uncertain about their future and that of Siwa.
