‘I love seeing [Jess] thrive, I didn’t want to be pH๏τographed with Rihanna because I wanted the spotlight to be on Jess’.

It was recently rumoured that the pair are considering a permanent move across the pond.

Alex’s future at the BBC has reportedly been thrown into doubt, with sources claiming she’s been ‘deeply hurt’ by a ‘lack of support’ surrounding Football Focus.

The presenter is thought to have made a complaint to channel bosses last year after the their response to criticism she faced around the show’s low viewing figures.

According to The Sun, Alex is now thought to be ‘considering other offers,’ and is even contemplate a move to the US with girlfriend Jess, as her BBC contract is up for renewal next year.

Alex has also stepped down from her hosting gig on Children On Need, with Rochelle Humes and Vernon Ka fronting the show this year.

A source said: ‘Alex has never been happier than she is right now, she’s just turned 40 and embracing a new chapter in her life, and the decision to part ways from Children In Need – an event she is hugely proud to have been a part of – was entirely mutual.

‘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.

Jess and Alex have been romantically linked since October 2023, after reports emerged they had been dating for months prior.

A source at the time said: ‘Alex and Jess have been a slow burn and they didn’t want to rush things or go public too soon.’

Alex recently revealed she kept her relationship with Jess a secret for more than a year because they both ‘knew their love was special’.

The former footballer and her singer girlfriend made their public debut as a couple in March at the BRIT Awards by posing on the carpet together.

Alex explained how they wanted to protect themselves for as long as possible, she said: ‘It took us a while because we knew what we have is so special, so it has been about trying to protect that and keep that for us in such a way that it continues to be beautiful.’

She recalled a sweet early memory when they met for the first time and Alex admitted she didn’t know how to act which caused Jess to jokily say ‘Are you not going to put your arms around me?’.

Alex shared the awkward encounter is still something they laugh about now.
