But he's since shared footage of him dancing with Too Hot To Handle star Georgia Hassara.
The pair partied at Coachella last week and have been hanging out together in California.
Posting a video of them doing a TikTok dance together at home, Joe said: "No more dancing for us @georgiahassara."
It has led fans to believe they're growing close romantically.

One said: "A duo I didn’t know I needed but I’ve never been happier."
Another asked: "You two dating?"
Speculation comes six weeks after The Sun revealed Joe had grown close to Maisie since she quit EastEnders.
“It’s early days but they’ve got real chemistry,” says the friend. “He thinks she’s so fit and really funny.”
And Joe appeared to be serious about getting to know the actress - even following her mum and sister on Instagram.

Maisie, who quit her role as Tiffany Butcher earlier this year, was previously linked to soap co-star Zack Morris, who played her on-screen husband Keegan.
The Sun reported that they ‘spent the night together’ after a trip to the cinema - and were later seen on a day out with their families in Essex.

Joe tried to distance himself from any future romance as he broke silence on their relationship, he said last month: "We met at an event – I think it was an event a few weeks back, maybe a month ago – got on really well."(Maisie is a) really cool girl. I met her mum and sister, who were also with her, and it was all good and I didn't think there was nothing to it.
"We're literally just friends. Just pal-y, it's nothing ever more. We are just friends actually. We're cool, we're cool."
Joe, who appeared on Love Island in 2019, has been single since April 2021, when he split with American model Desiree Schlotz.
The sandwich entrepreneur dated co-star Lucie Donlan after leaving the villa - before making a move on Frankie Essex during a brief Towie appearance in 2020.
Strictly favourite Maisie has landed a job on Friends Like These, a remake of the programme originally presented by Geordie duo Ant and Dec.
Meanwhile Joe's rumoured Aussie love interest Georgia was in season three of Too Hot To Handle.

Georgia, 26, from Brisbane, was a midwifery student.
A self-proclaimed “serial ghoster”, she gets bored easily and moves on quickly, but here's hoping Joe keeps her entertained.
