Former England footballer Alex Scott has always kept her love life under wraps but delighted fans when she finally confirmed her romance with Jess Glynne.
The 39 year old, who played for England from 2004 to 2017, also had a successful career with Arsenal and Birmingham City, along with the Boston Breakers in the USA. She's now a popular TV pundit, appearing on shows like Soccer AM and Sky Sports' Super Sunday.
While she's been open about her relationships with both men and women, she hasn't put a label on her sexuality. She became an icon for the LGBTQ+ community after revealing she'd been in a long-term relationship with a fellow teammate while playing for England, reports the Mirror.
Let's take a closer look at Alex's love life, from dating a soap star to her romance with Jess Glynne. Soap star Alex once revealed that she went on a date with Coronation Street actor Sam Robertson, who has played Adam Barlow since 2004.
However, their night out was interrupted when someone took a photo of them.
Two years back, she spoke about the date with Sam and said: "I never seem to have a lot of luck on dates. My one date in ages was going out with Sam [Robertson], who is lovely.

It wasn't exactly a great start." Later, Alex shared that she's okay with being single because she likes being independent. She previously told The Sunday Times: "My life has always been about being independent, making sure you can look after yourself and never wanting to feel that someone can walk out on you and take everything away from you."
