Alex Scott reveals secret ‘kisses’ with boy band hunk during Strictly Come Dancing stint
ONE Show host Alex Scott has sensationally revealed that she secretly shared passionate kisses with a boyband singer – and it’s believed to be One Direction hottie Harry Styles.
Alex, 38, who shot to fame after playing football for England in 2014, revealed in her autobiography How (Not) To Be Strong, that her brief romance happened in 2019, when she was on Strictly Come Dancing.
But Alex decided to call time on her fling as she feared it would ruin her career prospects.
And her beau at the time is believed to be Harry Styles, as Strictly Come Dancing host Claudia Winkleman let slip to millions of viewers in 2019, that Alex had an admirer from One Direction.
Alex responded embarrassingly saying: “That was meant to be between us.”
Harry was single at the time.
In her memoir she said: “This very cute, very famous young guy really went out of his way to woo me.”
She added: “I won’t reveal his name but he was in a boy band. A big one. And he was very sweetly and doggedly pursuing me. I had nothing to lose, but kept telling myself that my media career was just starting.”
She continued: “If I got papped with this guy, I would always be known as ‘so-and-so’s girlfriend’ and people would think I’d only reached a certain level by riding off the back of his fame.”
She then said: “So besides a few kisses here and there, I didn’t take things any further – how stupid.”
