A friend told The Sun: “Alex and Jess were slowly getting together and they didn’t want to rush anything or go public too soon.”
“But they are now officially an item and seem genuinely happy.” They are both strong, independent women with a shared passion and respect for their respective careers, who support each other from the sidelines.
“It’s still early days for them, but they’ve gotten to know each other’s friends and everyone is really happy for them.”

Alex and Jess sat next to each other on the second day of Wimbledon in July and enjoyed a drink in the pub in August.
Alex has not publicly confirmed whether she is currently in a relationship with anyone.
Back in March, the footballer said she was “struggling” to find a partner and even sought advice from Jamie Redknapp in the hope of finding the perfect partner.
She explained that she is “open” to meeting men and women and never closes her mind when it comes to dating.
After “struggling” with some dating apps, Alex said her pal and former footballer Jamie told her about the app Raya, which is often used by celebrities.

Speaking about her dating life, she told Grazia magazine: “It’s really hard.” [to find someone] Because people have a lot of prejudices. I’m having problems with apps.
“For me it’s all about the instant connection with someone and the conversation and I’m like ‘Oh wow’.”
“I remember Jamie Redknapp telling me, ‘There’s a dating app, Raya…’ So I was on it but was too scared to get in touch with anyone.”
Alex also admitted she would like to have children as she talked about turning 40 in two years.

“I don’t want it to be misinterpreted and the fact is these songs are about a girl.” “I was heartbroken over a girl, it wasn’t a man.”
