Alex Scott has revealed on I’m a Celebrity that she is “ready to marry” her long‑time girlfriend, Grammy‑winning pop star Jess Glynne, confirming that wedding bells are firmly on the couple’s horizon while she jokingly waits for Jess to propose. Their love story, which began quietly in 2023 and has since become one of the most high‑profile queer relationships in British entertainment, is now entering a new and very serious chapter.
Alex Scott’s marriage confession
During a heartfelt conversation in the I’m a Celebrity camp, Alex Scott opened up about her relationship with Jess Glynne, confirming she “will” marry the singer. She explained that she is completely committed and sees marriage in their future, but in a playful twist, added that she is still “waiting for her to ask,” making it clear she expects Jess to be the one to propose.
The admission came as Alex reflected on love, vulnerability and the importance of finding someone who truly understands her life on and off camera. Her comments instantly ignited excitement among fans, who have followed the couple’s journey from quiet beginnings to full‑on power‑couple status.
How Alex and Jess first connected
Alex Scott and Jess Glynne’s paths first crossed publicly in early 2023 when they appeared together on a professional panel at Advertising Week Europe, bonding over drive, creativity and career passion. By May 2023, they were spotted together at events, with insiders later confirming they were dating but keeping things deliberately low‑key and slow-burning.
Throughout the summer of 2023, the pair were seen in relaxed, off‑duty moments, from Wimbledon to London lunches and parties, quietly building a relationship away from constant public scrutiny. Friends described them as strong, independent women who support each other fiercely, even as they guarded their privacy in the early months.
Going public and becoming an “it couple”
The soft launch turned into a hard launch by late 2023 and early 2024, as Alex and Jess began stepping out together more confidently. They were photographed sharing affectionate moments on London walks, attending high‑profile events like British Vogue’s “Forces For Change” party and the Beckham Netflix documentary after‑party, confirming to the world that they were officially a couple.
In March 2024, they truly stole the spotlight at the BRIT Awards after‑party, posing together on the red carpet and sharing their first openly public kiss, a moment that instantly cemented them as one of the most talked‑about celebrity pairs in the UK. From there, red‑carpet dates at Cannes and glamorous galas, coordinated looks, and warm PDA helped brand them as an “it couple” for queer women and fans of both football and pop.
Romantic getaways and everyday love
Behind the cameras, their relationship has been marked by travel, shared routines and small daily rituals. In January 2024, they rang in the new year with a romantic trip to Tulum, Mexico, where they went scuba diving, explored caves and soaked up the sun, sharing carefully curated holiday snapshots with fans. Later in 2024, a sun‑drenched escape to Ibiza offered more glimpses of their playful, affectionate dynamic, which quickly went viral among LGBTQ+ followers who saw them as “couple goals.”
Alex has also spoken about the quieter side of their life together, describing waking up next to Jess and how they motivate each other in the gym and in their careers. In an interview, she called herself in a “bubble” of happiness and said being with Jess has helped her become more open, more vulnerable, and more willing to enjoy this new stage of her life.
Alex on life, love and Jess
Over the past year, Alex has gradually let the public in on how deeply rooted this relationship has become. She has described Jess as her partner in every sense, explaining that they mirror each other’s dedication and understand the pressures of life in the spotlight. For Alex, who has previously spoken about heartbreak and complicated past feelings, this romance represents a turning point toward security and emotional safety.
Her I’m a Celebrity comments about marriage fit neatly into this wider narrative of healing and growth. Instead of a whirlwind engagement, Alex has framed their journey as deliberate and grounded: they took their time, let the relationship evolve naturally, and now, after more than two years together, she feels ready to formalise it with a wedding.
Will Jess Glynne be the one to propose?
Outside the jungle, speculation has already started about how and when Jess Glynne might pop the question. Some reports suggest Jess has dropped hints of her own about proposing once Alex finishes her I’m a Celebrity stint, fuelling fan theories that a post‑show engagement could be on the cards. Sources close to the couple indicate that both women see a long‑term future together, with marriage and potentially building a family very much part of their private conversations.
For now, Alex’s on‑air confession has done two things at once: reassured fans that this is a serious, committed partnership, and placed the spotlight, lightheartedly, on Jess to make the next move. Whatever form the proposal eventually takes, it is likely to be shaped by the same balance of privacy and pride that has defined their relationship from the start.
What this moment means for fans
Alex Scott and Jess Glynne’s romance has become a powerful touchstone for representation, especially for queer women who rarely see high‑profile sports and music stars living openly and lovingly in mainstream media. Their decision to go from quiet support behind the scenes to red‑carpet PDA and now explicit talk of marriage sends a strong message about authenticity and joy in same‑sex relationships.
As Alex braves trials in the jungle and Jess continues to headline stages around the world, the couple’s evolving love story is resonating far beyond reality TV. With marriage now publicly on the table, fans are watching not just two celebrities, but two women building a life together on their own terms, in a way that feels refreshingly real.
