Jill Scott was stunned and overwhelmed live on Good Morning Britain on Tuesday, when she was presented with a statue in her honour, right next to the iconic Angel of the North. And the presentation happened, just as it was confirmed that she'd landed a key ITV role for the Women's World Cup.
Sunderland born star Jill had two massive reasons to celebrate in 2022, firstly with England's Lionesses winning the Euros, after a thrilling final clash in front of home fans at Wembley and then again months later, when she was the landslide winner of the last series of I'm A Celebrity, becoming the ITV show's Queen of the Jungle.
Since then, Jill has done some football commentary for various channels, been a Guest Announcer alongside Ant and Dec on Saturday Night Takeaway and captained England in Soccer aid. And now the former Sunderland and Manchester City player has her very own statue, with it revealed to her for the first time live on GMB.
