Elen Rivas has revealed that she's worried about her gran after it was reported that her ex-partner Frank Lampard is planning to evict her from her Barcelona home.

The model explained that she is keeping the rumours a secret from 98-year-old Teresa Cenete because she is scared that the news would kill her.

She told The Mirror: "She doesn't know what's happening. If I tell her what's going on it will kill her.

"She would die. I don't want to lose her."

However, the 36-year-old insisted that she will rehouse her grandmother if Lampard does decide to sell the property.

She added: "Whatever happens, I will sort it. I have some friends who have an ­apartment and they have offered to let her live there. But whatever happens, I will definitely make sure she is looked after."

But last night, a source close to Lampard said that the 32-year-old has no intention of selling the £290,000 flat he bought in 2008.

The insider said: "Frank has never had any ­intention of the gran moving out.

"He has been asking Elen for months to put the apartment in her name as he never wanted it and has offered her every ­assistance to do so but she's shown no interest in doing so."

Rivas also commented on her relationship with Peter Andre and admitted that her children aren't aware that they're a couple.

She confessed: "We haven't told the kids we're together. They just think we're good friends. They know Pete and they like him but I don't want them to think, 'This is the man Mum fancies.' He's like any of my girlfriends coming round."

Sources have recently claimed that Rivas and Andre's pairing is completely different to their past relationships.
