Christine Lampard "thrilled" at hubby Frank's new Everton role

Christine Lampard is reportedly "thrilled" at husband Frank's new job as manager of Everton.

It was announced last week that the former footballer, 43, was the team's new manager after being sacked from Chelsea Football Club in January 2021.

Frank had been manager for 18 months.

According to OK! a source said: “ Christine is really thrilled about it because it makes Frank happy. He’s been busy with other work, but he was really keen to get back into a manager role.

"Christine knows it’s his passion and his dream, and it’s what he’s good at, so she’s delighted.

They added: “The deal Frank has signed has been going on for some time – and it’s perfect for him. So it’s great news that it’s been finalised. He was really gutted about Chelsea, so this is great.”

The source continued that Newtownards woman Christine 'puts her family first'.

"Frank and the kids come before her and her career. She will carry on working as she loves being on the Loose Women panel and presenting. That won’t stop. But her family are definitely her first priority. The TV [career] is just the icing on the cake.

“This will be a very hands-on role for Frank so he’ll have to put a lot of time and effort into it. But Christine knows that and she’s happy for him. She wanted this to happen more than anyone," they said.
