Glowing Christine Lampard makes first TV appearance five months after giving birth

Christine Lampard looked stunning when she popped up on the Lorraine show today talking about life with the Lampards, including the recent arrival of baby Freddie.

Sporting a gorgeous pink-hued floral dress with her raven locks styled loosely around her shoulders, the Northern Irish TV presenter looked happy and relaxed as she caught up with her colleague.

Christine married Frank Lampard in 2015 and has two children with the former footballer, Patricia, two and Freddie, five months.

Returning to work for the first time since his arrival in March, she teased her comeback to the show as she will be stepping in for host Lorraine Kelly for four weeks very soon.

The star has landed the gig covering the Scottish presenter during her summer break for four weeks.

A source told The Mirror: "Christine is really looking forward to going back to work and the whole Lorraine team are delighted to have her on board."

Christine and Frank welcomed their second child together in March and named him Frederick George Lampard after Christine's dad.

During her chat with Lorraine, Christine revealed it was the tot's big sister Patricia who is following in her dad's footsteps.

After discussing the nerves over England's Euro 2020 final match against Italy, Lorraine said: "Patricia, she plays football with her daddy."

Christine replied: "She does, she loves football. I'm not even kidding you. Why wouldn't she? She absolutely loves football."

After watching a clip of the little one kicking the ball around with Frank, Lorraine pointed out: "Do you know what? She's got a really good wee right foot there!"

In May, Christine’s husband Frank spoke about how he was enjoying downtime with his family after being sacked as Chelsea manager.

Asked how he has been feeling since leaving Chelsea, Frank said: ‘My son, Freddie, was born two months ago. I’ve been able to enjoy that and being at home with my girls.

Frank went on to explain that when Patricia was born he was "engrossed" in his work as manager at Derby, while his experience with Freddie has been different.

He said: "Certainly a managerial career means much more sacrifice than as a player. For instance, Patricia was born when I was manager at Derby and I was engrossed in my work. Being there this time has been the big positive."

Christine had revealed she was pregnant with her second child back in January and confirmed her due date was in April, meaning Freddie arrived slightly early.

At the time she shared a picture of herself cradling her bump and wrote: "A new year and a new baby on the way for the Lampards!

"It's been a strange and worrying time to be pregnant but we’re hoping and praying that cuddles from family and friends are not too far off. S

"ending all my love to everyone going through pregnancy during this crazy time."

Lorraine is on weekdays from 9am on ITV and ITV Hub.
