Alex Scott could be about to score a huge career win with a trip to the I’m A Celebrity jungle. The former footballer and TV present is rumoured to be heading Down Under for this year’s contest.

During her time on the pitch the England international played at the likes of Arsenal, Birmingham City and in the United States. She also earned an impressive 140 caps for her country and was part of Team GB’s London 2012 Olympic team before switching to punditry, including on Match of the Day.

Past romance with Coronation Street star
It’s claimed Alex previously went on a slightly disastrous date with Coronation Street actor Sam Robertson. The duo are said to have enjoyed a candlelit dinner back in 2020 at a fancy Soho restaurant in London.
But it didn’t go as planned, according to the former sports star. “I never seem to have a lot of luck on dates,” she said. “My one date in ages was going out with Sam [Robertson], who is lovely.”
Alex continued to The Sun’s Fabulous magazine: “The next morning, our pictures were all over the press because someone in the restaurant had taken a photo. It wasn’t exactly a great start!”
She later told The Sunday Times: “If someone manages to come into my life who complements it, then great, but I’m not a person that needs to be with someone.
Dating Jess Glynne
Step forward Jess Glynne. In 2023, the Football Focus presenter publicly announced she was dating pop star Jess Glynne. There had been intense speculation about the pair’s romantic connection in the months before.
Since their announcement, the duo have made a number of public appearances together as a couple, including ELLE Style Awards. They have also continued to share photos of their holiday together.
When asked about their relationship previously, Alex said she is “happy and in love”. Jess also joked that the pair have become the “same person”.
Lavish London pad
The couple live in a swanky London townhouse. It’s reported the lavish property is worth around £1.5million. The pair have provided sneak peeks of their abode online, while also letting the Gogglebox cameras in.
Alex previously showed off her hoovering skills in the kitchen. The area featured a grey and white tiled floor. There was also a gas hob and oven and several units, while the room also featured a small seat to relax in.
The stunning cream living space was also on show as Alex took part in an ad for the FIFA game series. While both Alex and Jess reside at the property, it’s thought Alex settled into the space in 2021. They duo also have a personal gym in the house.
