When Alex Scott walked across the iconic I’m A Celebrity bridge — alone, emotional and finally free after two intense weeks in the jungle — viewers were left puzzled.
Where was Jess Glynne?
Where was the reunion everyone had been waiting for?
Hours later, the truth finally surfaced — and it broke hearts across the country.
A Private Crisis Jess Could No Longer Keep Quiet
Instead of greeting her partner of two years in Australia, Jess was thousands of miles away facing a nightmare no family ever wants to experience.
In a late-night Instagram message, the Hold My Hand singer shared the devastating reason behind her absence:
“Over the last few weeks, my mum suffered a major stroke and required urgent brain surgery.”
She admitted it was a “life-altering time” for her family — one that demanded her full presence at home.
Jess continued:
“Alex would always want me to be where I’m needed most.”
For two years, the couple has rarely been apart. But this time, life forced a different kind of strength.

Alex Walks the Bridge — Into the Arms of a Friend
With the emotional weight of the jungle still on her shoulders, Alex was greeted not by Jess, but by her close friend Regan Coleman.
After the adrenaline of survival faded, Alex admitted the moment barely felt real:
“I’m free! It feels strange… it doesn’t feel real.”
Despite being the first eliminated, she refused to carry disappointment:
“It’s been incredible. Mentally tough, yes — but I’m so glad I did it with such amazing people.”
Her campmates’ applause echoed behind her as she left the jungle for the last time.

Jess admitted she wished Alex had been shown more of the spotlight:
“She didn’t get the airtime to show how incredible she really is. This is only the beginning.”
And even in the midst of her family emergency, her love for Alex was undeniable:
“I can’t wait to have her back by my side.”
Fans Shocked by Alex’s Early Exit
Social media erupted within minutes:
-
“Alex Scott first out? Absolutely devastated.”
-
“Did NOT see this coming. She deserved better.”
-
“Why is she going home before half the camp even spoke!?”
Her time in the jungle may have been short — but viewers felt her impact instantly.
A Relationship Built on Strength, Distance and Devotion
Jess and Alex have been together since 2023, a relationship built on warmth, privacy, and resilience.
Inside the camp, Alex even joked she was waiting for Jess to propose.
Now, as Alex flies home and Jess remains by her mother’s side, the couple enters a new chapter — one shaped not by a reality show, but by real human love and real-life challenges.
A Bridge Missed — But a Bond Unbroken
Jess may have missed the bridge moment, but the truth is clear:
She wasn’t absent.
She was exactly where Alex needed her to be.
And when these two reunite — it will be a moment far more powerful than any jungle finale.
