An emotional Alex Scott has recalled how she used to pray that her mother would survive the abuse dished out by her violent father.
The former England and Arsenal defender appeared on Loose Women to discuss her memoir How (Not) To Be Strong on Monday. Scott has previously opened up about how her father, Tony, created a “toxic” home environment for her, mum Carol and brother Ronnie.
The 38-year-old, who now works as a presenter for the BBC, has decided to lay bare her own painful experience in an effort to help other victims of domestic violence. Tony has previously denied the allegations that he was ever violent towards his family.
