Frank Lampard and Christine Bleakley look loved-up in NYC ahead of footballer's US move

HE'S set to relocate to the US in July and it looks like Frank Lampard and Christine Bleakley are both extremely excited about the footballer's big move.

Frank and Christine look ridiculously loved-up

The lovebirds, who got engaged in 2011, flew to the US last week.

They watched Frank's new team take on Sporting Kansas City on Saturday night at the famous Yankee Stadium and they looked more loved-up than ever.

Frank and Christine also reportedly checked out a 9,000 sq ft apartment in NYC, which would apparently cost them a whopping £64,000 per month to rent.

A source told the Sunday Mirror: "It's an incredible place and he will have great company [a number of other high profile celebrities live in the building] if he gets the keys.

Frank and Christine are looking happier than ever

Lovebirds step out in the Big Apple

"It's taken a long time to make the move but he's finally starting to make plans to leave the UK," the insider added.

Nothing has been confirmed as of yet, though.

Despite rumours previously suggesting that Christine would be joining Frank overseas, she has since confirmed to us that London is still very much her home.

The TV presenter said towards the end of last year: "It's all rubbish."

"I've been quoted as saying all manner of things, like I'm handing out CVs in America. Well I'm not. And I'm not moving there either. Home is still very much London," she continued.

Couple have been engaged since 2011

Despite the distance between them, Christine said the couple, who have been engaged since 2011, are happier than ever.

She explained how it was love at first sight when they met at the Pride of Britain awards in 2009.

"Piers Morgan and Kevin Pietersen introduced him to me. I'd been single for a while and it was a case of that old clichéd idea that when you're not looking for it you find it. It was unlike anything I'd felt before. The connection was instant," the brunette gushed.
