TV personality Alex Scott has disclosed she will not be remaining in Australia and is preparing to return home immediately. This follows news that her partner Jess Glynne’s mother suffered a stroke, with Alex keen to provide support during this difficult period.<\/p>\n
Typically, eliminated celebrities<\/a> remain at the hotel until the series <\/a>concludes. She said: “I need to get home straight away.” Even before departing for Australia, Alex wrestled with whether to withdraw from the programme entirely, reports the Mirror<\/a>. Ultimately, it was Jess who encouraged her to participate.<\/p>\n Speaking to The Mirror earlier, she said: “It’s been a tough time for us and obviously her family, and it was a tough decision to come into the jungle, but then Jess never wanted me to step away from not doing it.<\/p>\n “I knew there was always a possibility of her not being across the bridge, if her mum hadn’t got better, or if things had been getting worse, which they have been. But it was a big decision for me to not pass this opportunity, and Jess was the one that pushed me to be here.”<\/p>\n Rather than Jess, Alex’s dear friend Regan Coleman was present to greet her, with the pair sharing a heartfelt reunion.<\/p>\n She said: “My first thought when I didn’t see Jess on the bridge was that I needed to FaceTime and speak to her.”<\/p>\n Being isolated in the jungle while unable to monitor Jess or her mother’s wellbeing proved torturous.<\/p>\n She said: “I found that really tough in the jungle, not being able to speak to Jess every day and just check in and see what’s going on, and how she was doing.<\/p>\n “When we did speak, it was an emotional moment.”<\/p>\n Hours after Alex departed the jungle, Jess took to social media to explain her absence from the reunion.<\/p>\n In a heartfelt post, she revealed that over recent weeks her mother had “suffered a major stroke and needed urgent brain surgery”.<\/p>\n She added: “It’s been a really serious, life-altering time for my family, and I’ve had to stay close to home. Alex would always want me to be where l’m needed most. I can’t wait to have her back by my side.”<\/p>\n When questioned about whether she contemplated withdrawing from the programme, Alex said: “Oh, yeah, absolutely, 100 percent. But Jess was the one that wanted me to do this, so that’s why I wanted to go in and still make her proud.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The former footballer was evicted from I’m A Celebrity and is leaving Australia immediately to support partner Jess…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":602737,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3937],"tags":[77,1459,382,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-602736","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tv","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-im-a-celebrity-get-me-out-of-here","10":"tag-tv","11":"tag-uk","12":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/602736","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=602736"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/602736\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/602737"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=602736"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=602736"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=602736"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
