Singer Jess Glynne has publicly expressed her adoration for girlfriend Alex Scott in a heartfelt social media tribute, showcasing her support for the former footballer during her time on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!
A Public Declaration of Love
On Monday, the Hold My Hand singer, 36, took to her Instagram account, which boasts nearly 900,000 followers, to share her feelings. She reshared a powerful clip from the latest episode of the ITV show, where Alex, 41, was seen discussing the importance of diversity and representation within the media industry with her campmates.
In the emotional jungle clip, Alex articulated her professional philosophy, stating: 'I never just want to be given a role because "oh we need a type for this". I want to always be given a job and a role because I am the best person for that role.' She elaborated on the historical lack of opportunities and emphasised that while doors are now opening, her goal remains to be selected purely on merit, not to fill a quota.
Proud Partner and Proposal Plans
Watching from home, Jess was evidently moved by her partner's words. She captioned the reshared clip: 'My woman is a true trailblazer! So proud of everything you are. She is the flagship Lisa!' She added a tender message, writing 'Ah I miss you so much' alongside a love heart emoji, highlighting how much she is pining for Alex during their separation.
This public display of affection comes shortly after a previous episode where Alex revealed to campmates Ruby Wax and Shona McGarty that she is waiting for Jess to propose. Alex confessed, 'I will get married to her, just waiting for her to ask, Rubes!' After watching this revelation, Jess had taken to her own Instagram Stories with a playful yet telling quip: 'I better go get a ring'.
A Modern Love Story
The pair, who first began dating in 2023, have been notably private about their relationship. Alex explained before entering the jungle that they were 'very guarded and private because we wanted to get to know each other and figure out ourselves before it was out there for the world.' She also revealed that their connection was instant, sparked when Jess confidently approached her at the Chiltern Firehouse restaurant. Alex stated, 'I think before her, I never knew happiness,' underscoring the depth of their bond.
Alex's current stint in the Australian jungle marks the longest period the couple has spent apart since they got together. Speaking to the Daily Mail about the separation, Alex candidly admitted, 'It's going to be a test for both of us.' Despite the distance, Jess's latest social media post proves her unwavering support and immense pride for her trailblazing partner.
