Jungle Hearts on Fire! Alex Scott Drops Proposal Bombshell About Jess Glynne on I'm a Celeb – And Fans Are Already Planning the Wedding!

Darlings, grab your binoculars – the I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! 2025 jungle is serving more drama, dirt, and downright delicious romance than a Kardashian reunion special! As the ITV juggernaut kicked off on 16th November with its signature chaos – think parachuting arrivals, Ant and Dec's cheeky one-liners, and a camp full of celebs ready to spill secrets faster than a tabloid leak – the real tea has been brewing around our fave Lioness-turned-hostess-with-the-mostess, Alex Scott. But hold onto your Akubras, because it's her swoon-worthy shoutout to soulmate Jess Glynne that's got the nation (and us gossip hounds) buzzing like a swarm of mozzies. Is a proposal on the horizon? Spoiler: The signs are screaming yes!

Let's rewind the reel on this season's wild ride first, because no jungle jaunt is complete without the full camp carnage. The 2025 line-up dropped like a Bushtucker Trial bombshell on 10th November, boasting a fabulously eclectic crew: fiery former England footballer Alex Scott (41, serving looks and leadership), comedy queen Ruby Wax (ready to psychoanalyse everyone), EastEnders siren Shona McGarty, Ozzy's heir Jack Osbourne, and a smattering of soap studs, an '80s pop relic, and wildcard funnyman Ginge. Launch night? Pure pandemonium – celebs plummeted into the Aussie outback amid fireworks and faux frights, with Ruby and Ginge drawing the short straw for the inaugural trial (spoiler: bugs, bile, and plenty of stars). Fast-forward to Wednesday's episode, and boom – late arrivals Vogue Williams (the Irish It-girl with zero filter) and Tom Read Wilson (Celebs Go Dating's smooth-talking matchmaker) crashed the party with a mega-twist: luxury lodgings and camp control powers. Cue eye-rolls, alliances fracturing, and Twitter (sorry, X) exploding over who'll be bossing whom. It's early days, but the vibes? Tense, teary, and oh-so-tasty.

But let's cut to the chase – or should we say, the campfire confessional? – because the episode that's got us all misty-eyed (and shipping harder than a FedEx truck) aired on 18th November. Tucked away in the dim glow of the jungle lanterns, Alex got real with camp confidantes Ruby and Shona, dishing on her fairy-tale meet-cute with soul-shaking singer Jess Glynne (36, voice of a thousand anthems and apparently, Alex's personal cheer squad). Picture this: It's May 2023 at London's swanky Chiltern Firehouse. Jess, ever the bold babe, slides into Alex's DMs – er, approaches her IRL – in what Alex calls a "really ballsy" move that sparked fireworks faster than a New Year's Eve bash. "We fell madly in love," Alex gushed, her voice cracking with that raw, unfiltered joy. And then, the gut-punch line that'll have you reaching for the tissues: "I think before her, I never knew happiness." Oof, talk about a mic-drop moment! The former Lioness, who's long kept her love life under wraps, opened up about how Jess has been her rock through social anxiety battles, coaxing her out of her shell like a pro. But the real jaw-dropper? When Ruby prodded about wedding bells, Alex didn't hesitate: "I will get married to her... just waiting for her to ask, Rubes!" Cue the collective "awww" from the camp – and a nation suddenly obsessed with rainbow rings.
