She also took to writing a weekly women’s football column in the Morning Star and is a regular face on Premier League Productions’ Fan Zones. Away from the world of football, Alex took part in and won Bear Grylls: Mission Survivor and the Sports Relief Strictly Come Dancing special in 2018.

Along with her achievements in broadcast, Alex has undertaken some exciting commercial and ambassadorial opportunities.

She has also begun an ambassadorial role with Nike and is continuing her relationship with Barclays as a key spokeswoman for their move into the world of female sport.
