Jill Scott MBE

Jill Scott MBE is a celebrated former England Lioness, broadcaster, and one of the most respected figures in women’s football. Born in Tyne and Wear, she enjoyed a remarkable 16-year international career, earning over 160 caps for England and helping shape the modern women’s game. Choosing football over athletics at 13, Jill’s journey has been defined by passion, resilience and leadership.

After studying Sport and Exercise Science at Gateshead College and Loughborough University, she launched her senior career with Sunderland Women before joining Everton, where she won both the FA Women’s Cup and Premier League Cup. In 2013, Jill moved to Manchester City, adding the Continental Cup to her list of achievements while mentoring younger players and helping drive the growth of women’s football.

An England regular from 2006, Jill represented her country at multiple World Cups and European Championships, famously scoring the semi-final winner against the Netherlands in 2009. Honoured with an MBE in 2020 for services to football, she capped her playing career by helping lead England to victory at the UEFA Women’s Euro 2022.

Since retiring, Jill has become a popular broadcaster and media personality, serving as a sports pundit for ITV and a team captain on Sky’s *A League of Their Own*. In 2022, she was crowned Queen of the Jungle on ITV’s I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!, winning the nation’s hearts with her humour, warmth and authenticity.
