Alex Scott is poised to take a huge next step with girlfriend of 17 months Jess Glynne, according to reports.
The former England footballer is currently the host of Football Focus. However, she reportedly complained to bosses last year after being “deeply hurt” by their response after she was blamed for falling viewing figures.
With her BBC contract up for renewal next year, Alex is now said to be “contemplating a move to America,” where Jess is based, and walking away from Football Focus. It comes amid claims she’s been left feeling like she’s been “thrown under the bus” by the Beeb.
Alex Scott eyeing move to America with Jess Glynne
Speaking to The Sun, a source claimed: “Alex wants to concentrate on her ambassadorships with UNICEF and Refuge right now. She is also contemplating a move to America with her girlfriend, Jess [Glynne]. There are no guarantees she will be with the BBC next summer. Her contract is up for renewal and she is in talks for a raft of other exciting projects.
Alex has never been happier than she is now.
“Football Focus turns 50 this year. And Alex is now seriously contemplating moving on from the show. Last year she was hugely hurt by unfair criticism about falling viewing figures. She felt she was thrown under a bus. The viewing figures were not as reported and she feels no one backed her up and issued the correct viewing figures. The viewing figures are actually super healthy. Alex raised her concerns as she has been in this business long enough now to stand up for herself.”
