Alex Scott to Miss “I’m a Celebrity” Reunion Due to Family Emergency
TV star Alex Scott is set to miss the official “I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!” reunion after her girlfriend’s family faced a major emergency. This development comes as Scott recently avoided the final episode of the show, citing concerns over how she was portrayed during her time in the jungle.
Scott’s Personal Struggle and Reunion Expectations
The ex-Lioness, who was eliminated first from the “I’m a Celebrity” competition, immediately returned to the UK after her mother suffered a major stroke. According to Jess Glynne, Scott’s partner, she had to stay close to home for support during this challenging time.
“Over the last few weeks, my mum suffered a major stroke and needed urgent brain surgery. It’s been a really life-altering time for my family, and I’ve had to stay close to home.” – Jess Glynne
Reflecting on her absence from the famous bridge walk, Glynne expressed that Scott would always choose to be where she is most needed. “Alex would always want me to be where I’m needed most,” said Glynne, adding, “I can’t wait to have her back by my side.”
Scott’s Criticism of the Show’s Edit
During an appearance on Lorraine, Scott voiced her disappointment with how she was portrayed in the edited version of the show. She highlighted that more of her fun and genuine side was not reflected in the final cut.
“It’s me actually being out and learning what’s been aired and what’s been shown.” – Alex Scott
Scott further elaborated on how she felt misrepresented: “I had so much fun, and that bit wasn’t shown. I had so much fun. I was called the Games Master in there, the stuff that I was doing with everyone. ‘It’s only an hour show so only so much can go into the edit but when I reflect, I wish more of the fun stuff, people had seen that side of me.” – Alex Scott
Scott’s Absence from Final Episode and Future Plans
Apart from missing the final episode, Scott was also absent at the wrap party. In a statement to the Daily Mail, she expressed her wish to be present for the reunion but acknowledged the importance of being with her family.
“It’s been tough because I want to be here for the wrap party and I have to get home straight away. She’s my Jessica, and I’m going home to be her rock.” – Alex Scott
Scott is expected not to appear on the upcoming reunion show airing on December 13 at 9:05 PM, as she continues to support her family during this challenging period.
The “I’m a Celebrity” Coming Out show will air on ITV1 and ITVX. Despite missing out on the final episode and wrap party, Scott’s supporters are hoping that her absence is temporary and that she can return when her personal circumstances allow it.
