<\/span><\/p>\n

In 2020, her career exploded when she took a hosting job on talkSPORT's breakfast show – dividing the honours with Alan Brazil.<\/p>\n

She became a firm fans' favourite, branched out to DAZN with their boxing and Women's Champion League shows.<\/p>\n

ITV then utilised her skills as she presented both World Cups in the men's and women's game, as well as a NFL hightlights show.<\/p>\n

Most recently, TNT Sports made Laura their lead presenter for Champions League and boxing.<\/p>\n

Alex has had plenty of crossover with Laura. She began her media career on Soccer AM while she was still playing professional football for Arsenal.<\/p>\n

After completing a degree in Professional Sports Writing and Broadcasting, she scored columns for The Independent during the 2014 World Cup.<\/p>\n

When she retired in 2017, Alex got a job on cBeebies show Match of the Day Kickabout.<\/p>\n

A year later, she made history as the first female pundit for the BBC at the 2018 World Cup.<\/p>\n

In 2019, she was announced as co-host of Goals on Sunday on Sky Sports alongside Chris Kamara.<\/p>\n


\n
\n
\n<\/p>\n

Since 2020, the MBE has hosted BBC's Sports Personality of the Year Awards.<\/p>\n

Alex has also transcended sport, appearing on Strictly Come Dancing and is a frequent guest presenter of the One Show.<\/p>\n

Net worth<\/h2>\n

Both Scott and Woods have amassed a small fortune from their TV gigs.<\/p>\n

Although figures vary, there's not much between them.<\/p>\n

According to Apumone, Woods has a net worth of\u00a0around \u00a31.64million.<\/p>\n

On the BBC pay list for the season of 2022-23, Scott was said to earn somewhere between \u00a3185,000 – \u00a3189,999.<\/p>\n

Add to that her other gigs, as well as past TV credits,and her fortune is estimated to be around \u00a31.6million too.<\/p>\n

Both are killing it.<\/p>\n


\n
\n
\n<\/p>\n

Best mates<\/h2>\n

When it comes to pals in football, Laura and Ally McCoist were thick as thieves.<\/p>\n

The rapport they had between one another was radio gold on talkSPORT.<\/p>\n

Built over a mutual respect, they cracked jokes, shared banter and were a staple for morning radio.<\/p>\n

When Woods decided to quit, Ally had to fight back tears as he paid tribute to his pal in what was an incredibly emotional moment.<\/p>\n

Scott is close with fellow Arsenal icon Leah Williamson.<\/p>\n

They are known to be inseparable, when they are not bound by work committments.<\/p>\n

The two reportedly met on the football circuit over two years ago, and have become best mates.<\/p>\n

In the summer, Alex and Leah went on holiday with fellow Lionesses star Keira Walsh and spent time on a yacht in Ibiza.<\/p>\n

And they make time to attend swanky events together.<\/p>\n


\n
\n
\n<\/p>\n

They turned heads at the recent Virgin Atlantic Attitude Awards this week.<\/p>\n

Previously they were spotted at the Brit Awards and GQ Awards hanging out together.<\/p>\n

Love life<\/h2>\n

Despite their incredibly busy lives, Laura and Alex have time for romance.<\/p>\n

And they've both gone public with their relationships.<\/p>\n

As The Sun told you. Alex has been dating pop star Jesse Glynne.<\/p>\n

They were first spotted together before the Women's World Cup, and have since gone public at the premiere of David and Victoria Beckham's Netflix documentary premiere after-party in London.<\/p>\n

A friend said: \u201cAlex and Jess have been a slow burn and they didn\u2019t want to rush things or go public too soon.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut they\u2019re 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.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s still early days for them, but they\u2019ve met one another\u2019s mates and everyone is super-happy for them.\u201d<\/p>\n

Woods has also got a new boyfriend.<\/p>\n

Earlier this week, she went Instagram official with ex-Love Island contestant Adam Collard.<\/p>\n


\n
\n
\n<\/p>\n

Very intimate pictures were uploaded to her account, before she swiftly removed them.<\/p>\n

The Sun first told how they were seeing each other last month as they\u00a0enjoyed a series of low key dates together.<\/p>\n

They then headed for a\u00a0romantic break in Cornwall, giving away the biggest clue they're an item.<\/p>\n
