LONDON - One Show host Christine Bleakley has admitted that she is going around with footie star Frank Lampard.

Speaking after a lunch date, she first denied they are an item but then said: “Well, when you start seeing someone and it’s early days, you need to get to know them a bit before you come out and say you’re dating.”

Bleakley was recently spotted leaving Lamps’ luxury London townhouse and the couple reportedly enjoyed a date at Beyonce’s gig this week, reports the Sun.

Meanwhile, Lampard’s ex fiancĂ©e Elen Rives has admitted that she is still in love with the star and hopes to reconcile with him - despite his romance with Bleakley.

Rives, the mother of Lampard’s two daughters, said that she was heartbroken after rumours of his romance with the brunette started making rounds. (ANI)
