THEY have suitably become the hot celebrity couple of the moment.
Alex Scott, 39, is a TV favourite for BBC Sport, and a pioneer for women offering football punditry.
While Jess Glynne, 34, is Brit Award-nominated pop star who has scored multiple No1 records and played Glastonbury.
Together, they are successful role models who preach strong feminine morals.
It's little wonder they are attracted to one another.
But initially, they kept their romance private – enjoying secret dates, away from scrutiny and the public glare.

However, this week they were happy to share a kiss while out in London, confirming their fledgling relationship.
It began on the Q.T.
Early courtship
It's hard to pinpoint when Alex and Jess decided to get serious.
It was said they began a courtship before and after the Women's World Cup which ran from July to August.

However, there have been a variety of clues that they were dating one another.
As far back as May, they were snapped at an event called Advertising Week Europe.
A few months later, the pair were spotted side-by-side watching Wimbledon.
They wore matching white ensembles as they cheered on England's Katie Boulter against Daria Saville. Their outfit choice suggested they were already in sync.
Right before Scott took on her presenting duties at the Women's World Cup, the pair enjoyed a pub lunch together in North West London.
Alex and Jess enjoyed pints at the time and appeared in high spirits as they drank and chatted.
That same month, in August, the famous two both attended a Coco Der Mer party.
Alex looked stunning as she donned a black top and her hair slicked back at the collection launch.
Jess was also in attendance and oozed glam in a black leather top, with the songstress posing next to Alex for photos at the event hosted by Helena Christensen and Charli Howard. Matching dress code once again.
Then, most recently, Jess and Alex partied alongside David and Victoria Beckham at their exclusive Netflix documentary premiere after-party at The Twenty Two in West London.
'Slow burn'
Work commitments meant Alex and Jess were a 'slow burn'. Their romance was formed organically over time.
A friend told The Sun: “Alex and Jess have been a slow burn and they didn’t want to rush things or go public too soon.
“But they’re officially an item now and seem really happy. They are both strong, independent women with a shared passion and respect of their respective careers, supporting one another from the sidelines.
“It’s still early days for them, but they’ve met one another’s mates and everyone is super-happy for them.”
Both have been coy on their sexuality
Admittedly, Scott, who was once linked with Scottish actor Sam Robertson, has kept her relationships private.
In her memoir How (Not) To Be Strong, she wrote about a long term romance with former Arsenal team-mate Kelly Smith, who she was "madly in love with".
Speaking about writing about their love for the first time during a FANE talk in East London, Alex said: “I went back and forth on whether I’d actually be writing the chapter.
“But then it was one of those moments, I’m writing this book and I want to tell everything. I thought I’d be cheating you all if I didn’t put that in there. And for me, it’s like that first love story, I fell madly and deeply in love.
“And yes, there’s that heartbreak and those things, but it’s a huge part of my life and I wouldn’t go back and change that.
“Because that feeling of love and that excitement and what it gives you, it needed to be in there.”
Glynne has also refused to put a label on her sexuality in the past. She said: “I’ve only ever been with one girl and that’s the girl from my album [2015’s I Cry When I Laugh]. I’m never going to put a label on my sexuality.
“People should never feel uncomfortable about who they love.”
In an interview with The Independent, she also revealed her first album was about a woman.
She said: "The songs on this album are about a girl. I would never lie about a situation I've been in. I feel like with the album I'm putting my cards out on the table.
"I wouldn't want it to be misconstrued and the fact of the matter is those songs are about a girl. I was heartbroken about a girl, it wasn't a guy."
Sealed with a kiss
Just a month after they were pictured sitting next to each other at the 2023 Attitude Awards at the Roundhouse in Camden, and less than a few weeks after they attended The Haunted House of Friends Halloween party presented by Casamigos Tequila in London, we had confirmation.
Last week, photographers pictured them walking arm-in-arm with each other.
Every so often, they would stop for a loving kiss.
Eventually, they parted ways at Great Portland Street Station.
