Strictly star and footballer Alex Scott has opened up about her unhealthy relationship with alcohol, thanks to social media trolls.
September 16, 2021 - 13:13 BST Bridie Wilkins Alex Scott has spoken out about her struggles with mental health in the past, and while she’s touched upon the effect this has on her relationship with alcohol, she hasn’t gone into too much detail.
It came down to social media trolls. “Being an athlete, you’re used to criticism, and I could always take that as a footballer in terms of: ‘I don’t think you’ve had a good game.’ But trolling – it’s not related to what I can improve. I went from being on screen doing a job I love to thinking: ‘I know what’s going to happen as soon as I step off this chair’.
That marked the first step of Alex turning a corner. From there, she started therapy, through a mental health service called Sporting Chance Clinic, founded by former England and Arsenal men’s captain Tony Adams, specifically for athletes.
