JESS Glynne has seemingly slammed ITV for not giving her girlfriend Alex Scott much airtime on hit reality show I’m A Celebrity.
Alex Scott was the first star to be evicted from I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! on Friday.
Due to a family crisis, Alex’s girlfriend of more than two years, Jess Glynne, was unable to greet her on the iconic bridge when she left the camp.
After Alex’s exit, Jess released a statement about her girlfriend’s time on the show and claimed she did not get enough airtime.
“My woman might be out far earlier than she ever deserved, but I’m so unbelievably proud of her,” she began in the post shared on Instagram.
Jess added: “She didn’t get the airtime to show how incredible she really is, and trust me, this is only the beginning.”

The ex-England lioness survived 14 days in the I’m a Celebrity jungle before falling short in the public vote.
During her time on the show, Alex, 41, got stuck into any challenge she was faced with from the off.
Days ago the football pundit and TV presenter had to burst fish eyes with her teeth and dribble the juice into a shot glass.
Also while in the jungle, Alex smuggled in contraband salt to season their meals, which saw her hit with a punishment.
Elsewhere in Jess’ statement after Alex’s axe, she revealed the real reason why she was not waiting for Alex on the bridge after she was eliminated.
“I know people will wonder why I wasn’t there at the end of the bridge, so I wanted to share something personal,” Jess revealed.
“Over the last few weeks, my mum suffered a stroke and needed urgent brain surgery.
“It’s been a really serious, life-altering time for my family, and I’ve had to stay close to home.”
She concluded: “Alex would always want me to be where I’m needed most.
“I can’t wait to have her back by my side.”
Alex and her famous popstar girlfriend Jess have been in a relationship since the summer of 2023, meaning they have been together for over two years.
They first met at an event in May 2023 before spending time with one another that summer, including at Wimbledon that July.
Their relationship was not publicly confirmed until October 2023.
While in the jungle, Alex told camp co-star Ruby Wax that she was waiting for Jess to pop the question.
Asked if marriage was on the cards, she said, “I will get married to her, just waiting for her to ask, Rubes.”
Jess then swiftly took to her Instagram at the time and said: “I better go get a ring.”
