After playing coy for months, Frank Lampard and Christine Bleakley have finally come out in the open with their romance.

The couple has dated for six months but refused to be openly pictured together, until now.

Even last week Chelsea ace Frank, 31, hid behind his scarf as photographers spotted them at London's Dorchester Hotel.

But finally he gave in to the pressure from the telly presenter, 31, to prove his love.

And on Tuesday, the pair posed for fans gathered outside BBC Radio 1's studios in west London.

Frank joined the 'One Show' star while she promoted her Sport Relief challenge on Chris Moyles' radio show - she plans to waterski the English Channel.

Later, the footballer took her for breakfast.

"Christine was getting increasingly agitated. They've been together ages but hadn't gone properly public," the Daily star quoted a source as saying.

"It didn't help when Frank said he was a single man in a recent interview. She told him they should not be ashamed of their romance and Frank agreed," he added. (ANI)
