Alex Scott & Jess Glynn are ‘getting serious’ but one’s got a ‘rebellious side’, says body language expert
WHILE the beginning of their relationship may have been underwraps, but Alex Scott and Jess Glynne have been packing on the PDA since making their relationship official in November.
Since then the BBC presenter and Brit Award-nominated pop star’s relationship has gone from strength to strength and this month they took the next stepas they jetted off on their first couple’s holiday to Mexico.
Former Lioness Alex shared a glimpse into their romantic getaway on Instagram earlier this week sharing a selection of sun-soaked snaps as well as a video of the pair riding around on a moped.
And according to body language expert Judi James the holiday video suggests the pair are getting serious.
TRUST & AFFECTION
Speaking exclusively to Fabulous, Judi says: “Alex and Jess’s body language here shows high levels of trust between them plus the powerful trait of each intensifying and complimenting the happiness and the fun of the other.
“Jess seems to balance a more serious side to Alex by bringing signals of rebellion and spontaneity that might border on the reckless, while Alex appears to produce signals of strong affection and empathy in Jess.”
MIRRORED AFFECTION
“Their body language is full of subliminal mirroring, even in this short clip,” Judi adds.
“When Alex turns her head away from Jess they both produce almost identical smiles to suggest like-minded thinking and emotions and when Alex turns to look back at Jess both of them get the rounded cheeks that suggest authentic happiness.”
EMOTIONAL GENEROSITY
“Alex’s eyes seem to gleam here, but as Jess prompts an open-mouthed laugh from Alex there are clues in the way that Jess then gazes at Alex’s face that she is made happy by prompting that laugh and watching the results, suggesting emotional generosity,” Judi explains.
“Jess licks her lips as Alex looks away but then she performs the big tongue-poke gesture to the camera to show off her more rebellious side after the cute moment of subtle emotional reveal with Alex.”
The video captures the couple's interaction on a moped ride during their fun-filled holiday.
In the video, Scott says: "You know what we are? Brits abroad."
Glynne, 34, laughed and replied: "Brits abroad with chin straps."
A beaming Scott then added: "Safety first."
Glynne said: "Mexico, I'm ready," before the traffic began to move and Scott set off.
The couple sparked dating rumours earlier this year when they were spotted at Wimbledon together before attending an awards show.
Their relationship was later confirmed with a public kiss and they have been inseparable ever since, with both seen at BBC Sports Personality of the Year award.
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.
The pair's relationship was confirmed when they were spotted sharing a kiss in November ending all speculation.
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.
