I'm A Celeb's Jill Scott feared for her life as plane dramatically 'nose-dived'

I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!'s Jill Scott once feared she was going to die on a plane full of her fellow Lionesses after the aircraft started to nose-drive, leaving players phoning home in a panic to say goodbye to their loved ones.

The former England women's footballer, 35, was on a flight with her teammates during the 2019 Women's World Cup in France when the pilot was forced to take drastic action after the jet hit an air pocket, which resulted in players and crew members being sick.

Jill was sitting next to current England captain Leah Williamson because the star had taken several magazines on to distract the I'm A Celebrity contestant from her fear of flying, and she is "forever grateful" to the skipper for comforting her during the ordeal.
