How did Alex Scott and Jess Glynne meet?

Speaking on I'm A Celeb, Alex revealed: "She approached me in one of those boujie places in London, the private membership clubs.

Alex also opened up about how she came to understand her sexuality, telling Ruby, Lisa Riley and others: "I had relationships with men all my life, there was just always something missing for me."

"My first experience with a woman was when I was like 17, and the same thing, I was like fighting it. I'd go back to men in between because, like I said for me, it's always about the connection. I'm attracted to me still, but that connection would wear off for me," she explained.
