Alex Scott reveals she is loving being ‘more vulnerable’ in her relationship with girlfriend Jess Glynne: ‘All those walls have come down’

Alex Scott has revealed she likes being ‘more vulnerable’ in her relationship with girlfriend Jess Glynne.

The ex-footballer, 39, spoke in a candid interview with Women’s Health Britain on Tuesday where she lifted the lid on her bond with singer Jess, 34.

She stunned in shots while wearing a black bodysuit and talked about how much she enjoyed being with the star.

Alex said: ‘I’m in this bubble at the moment… I’m more open to acceptance and being vulnerable and I’m definitely enjoying this phase.

‘I enjoy saying, OK, I’m just going to get on with this. I think I was very stuck before. All those walls have fallen.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Alex emphasized that despicable racist and misogynistic abuse from cruel trolls pushed her to “continue to do her work at a level that haters cannot tolerate.”

She described it as “a bit of ammunition to go ahead and celebrate because you’re targeting people the wrong way.”

The former lioness, who is preparing to host the 2024 European Championships in June, said: “I continue to flourish, I continue to kill you with my kindness and do my job at a level that you cannot tolerate.”

It comes after Jess revealed their high-profile relationship has attracted nothing but “super positive” attention.

The hitmaker, who went Instagram official with the football presenter at Christmas last year, said she ‘didn’t know what to expect’ when they met.

Having always kept previous relationships ‘very private’, she happily revealed that the couple have ‘received no negativity at all’.

She said The times: ‘For me it’s a different kind of attention, but so far all that attention has been super positive.

‘I’ve never made my personal life public before, so I had no idea what to expect. Probably because I wasn’t in a relationship with a celebrity, I had always managed to keep that side of me very private.

‘The interest was inevitable for us, but you know, there is no negative, because we have had no negativity at all.

“We both give so much into what we do that coming home to your friends, your family, your partner, that’s the ‘you’ time. I never want to shortchange that.’

It came after Jess opened up about her relationship with girlfriend Alex last month, affectionately saying she is in a ‘happy relationship’.

The Take Me Home artist said their romance is going ‘really well’ and she feels ‘very comfortable’ with the ex-Arsenal player.

I talk to Fearne Cotton about her Happy place podcast, Jess said: ‘The work I’ve been doing on myself has really calmed me down and allowed me to be in a relationship where I feel really comfortable and just being myself. I am unapologetically myself.

‘It has ensured that I can be very happy in a new relationship. I think love is a very scary subject and I normally remain quite distant.

“But it’s nice to be able to embrace someone and have a relationship that really feels good.”

However, Jess said it’s still difficult to be in a relationship in the public eye and she likes to try to keep her “personal life to herself.”

She continued, “It’s something I’m starting to get used to. I like to keep my personal life to myself somehow. It’s so important.

“Even though we’re both in this public space, what we have is ours. I feel like this is something I will always do.

“People want so much from you and what’s great is that we both feel that way and we’ll continue to keep that to ourselves.”

Alex and Jess were first pictured sharing a passionate kiss in November last year.

But it was first reported that Alex and Jess were in a secret relationship in the summer of 2023.

A friend told me about their relationship The sun at the time, “Alex and Jess were slow and didn’t want to rush things or go public too quickly.

‘But they are now officially an item and seem very happy.

“They are both strong, independent women with a shared passion and respect for their respective careers, who support each other from the sidelines.”
