Chelsea icon Frank Lampard’s mega net worth and life with ITV star Christine

Frank Lampard is revered in English football thanks to his success with Chelsea after starting out in the game with West Ham.

Since ending his illustrious playing career, Lampard, 46, has forayed into management, taking charge of Derby County, the Blues (twice) and Everton. Unlike his former international colleagues Steven Gerrard and Wayne Rooney, Lampard remains in work after taking charge of Coventry City in November.

Over the years, he has accumulated a significant fortune, some of which has been invested in a luxurious London home he shares with his TV presenter wife Christine and their children. Here’s a glimpse into his wealth, family life and how he has rejuvenated his managerial career in the Championship…

What is Frank Lampard’s net worth?

Celebrity Net Worth estimates Lampard’s fortune to be around £75million. The site also suggests that he earned an annual salary of £9.6million at Everton, although this figure hasn’t been officially confirmed.

According to Total Sportal, a sports-centric website, Lampard’s contract with Everton was worth £15million, including a signing bonus and various other incentives. Many of these incentives were not activated as the Toffees dismissed him in January 2023.

He made a brief return to Chelsea at the end of the 2022/23 season for a presumably well-compensated but unsuccessful stint as interim manager.

When did Frank Lampard meet Christine?

Frank and Christine’s romance seems to have been written in the stars. Their first encounter happened at the Pride of Britain awards back in October 2009.

Christine, then Bleakley, almost missed the event due to her commitments on The One Show. Recounting the moment they met, she said on Loose Women: “I am very, very glad we met when we did, it was definitely about timing for us.”

Frank, a self-professed fan of The One Show, impressed Christine initially with his knowledge of her work. She recalled: “Frank came over to me and said, ‘I watch you on The One Show’. I said, ‘No you don’t! Who was my guest last night?’

“And he was able to tell me! I just laughed and we both giggled about it. Then that was it. He somehow got my number, and I had a withheld number call my phone on the way home. I picked up, and it was him.

“I said ‘Wow, you’re keen!’ as a bit of a joke and we chatted. He said he enjoyed meeting me and would like to stay in touch. It was very relaxed.”

The couple tied the knot in 2015 and are now doting parents to Patricia and Freddie, with Patricia being named in honour of Frank’s late mother. He also has two daughters, Luna and Isla, from his previous relationship with Elen Rivas.

Where does Frank Lampard live?

The Lampards live in a £10million London mansion, with Christine occasionally giving fans a sneak peek into their home life during episodes of Loose Women.

She shared that her sanctuary for some peace and quiet is a “she shed” in the garden, explaining: “It’s tiny, but I walked into it the other day and thought, ‘This could be a good hiding place’ – even just a little five minutes.”

Based on her Instagram, her home sports a chic monochrome design with pristine white walls. It features a sleek kitchen adorned with white high-gloss cabinets and numerous built-in appliances. The kitchen offers vast space for creating culinary delights and includes an expansive island.

Who does Frank Lampard manage?

Lampard looks to have revived both Coventry and his own managerial career. He had a tough act to follow in replacing club legend Mark Robins, who had led the Sky Blues from the fourth tier to a Championship play-off final and an FA Cup semi-final.

Lampard was already well versed in the rigours of the second tier, having led Derby to the play-off final in 2019. He has put that experience to good use by lifting the Sky Blues to within a point and a place from the play-off zone before this weekend’s games.
