Christine Bleakley on Frank Lampard wedding: We will marry when ready

Christine Bleakley has dismissed speculation that she and Frank Lampard will marry this year.

The Dancing On Ice presenter had previously said that they had been unable to confirm plans due to the Chelsea player's England commitments. Speaking to the Sunday Mirror, Bleakley said that the couple would not tie the knot before Euro 2012.



"I swear on my life - and I know nobody wants to believe me - we have not started organising anything," she said. "We won't do it this year. I know everyone thinks they know everything about our wedding.

"But it won't be this year in the two-week gap that Frank has for his holiday. We will get married when we are ready, and that's our business."

Discussing speculation about their big day, the Northern Irish presenter admitted that she is "pissed off" by "one particular wedding" story which "keeps resurfacing".

She explained: "Back home near where I grew up they're continually ­saying that I've paid a couple to move their wedding date from a venue in Belfast ­because we wanted it. That upsets me. My mum and dad's friends hear about this and then think I'm a bitch.There's so much tosh going around about me."



Dispelling other rumours about her and Lampard's relationship and their future in the UK, she said: "I'm not going to LA. Frank's at Chelsea for ­another two years. Last week we had gone and looked at flats in LA. Wrong. Then I was best friends with Victoria Beckham and I've never, ever met her. Not once.

"I think this WAG thing has got a bit old hat," she added. "Back in the day they were painted as 'that girl' who took the footballers credit card and marched around in heels buying handbags. That's not me in a million years. I'm the polar opposite of a WAG in the old terms."
