Former Arsenal footballer Alex Scott has been reported as one of the highest-paid presenters at the BBC, following a successful career, as she prepares to enter the jungle
TV presenter and former professional footballer Alex Scott’s net worth has been revealed as she heads into the jungle for the 2025 series of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! Alex has embarked on a successful career so far and reportedly has a net worth of £2million.
The former Arsenal footballer is reported to be one of the highest paid presenters at the BBC, with her yearly salary reported at a whopping £220,000. Alex also calls a £1.5m mansion her home and has done since 2021. It is reported that she shares her home with her girlfriend, singer Jess Glynne.
The huge home is equipped with a gym and garden which Alex often gives glimpses of when she shares her home workout videos online. Her home interior appears stylish with creme coloured furniture and a burst of colour from plants.

It comes as Alex said goodbye to her partner to head into the jungle and opened up on what she will find the most challenging.
She told ITV: “I will need to push myself to speak out around all of the different and big personalities. Not going into myself for being the shy one will be my big challenge.
“People see you on TV and they assume you are outgoing, that loud person but take me to red carpets or events and I am the one in the corner going, ‘talk to me, please give me a plus one so I don’t have to be that person who walks in on my own.’ It’s going to be a challenge.”
Alex Scott also opened up about how much she will miss her girlfriend Jess in the jungle and said the pair are “genuinely so in love”.
Alex admits that her taking part in the show will mark the longest they have ever been apart, but added that singer Jess pushed her to say yes to the ITV show.
She told The Mirror: “It is a test for both of us. I know she is at home, and she is going to be my biggest cheerleader, supporting me, and she really wanted me to do this because she knew that I wanted to test myself, and it is going to be a challenge for us both being separated. But I suppose that is what makes the heart grow fonder, right?”
Inside camp, Alex is braced for creepy crawlies and sleep deprivation, but says the emotional side might be even tougher.
“I think for me, that might be the tough side,” she said. “I think I have always been so guarded and had this big armour up as a way of protection and kind of not letting people in… So I feel like being in the jungle and having those conversations, maybe I will have to show a vulnerable side and not have that armour up so much.”
