Not happy: Christine Bleakley and Frank Lampard senior looked on from the stands as the Chelsea team were booed off the pitch at Stamford Bridge


Being a WAG isn't all about fancy holidays and extra attention on the red carpet.

As Christine Bleakley found out last night, sometimes you just have to stand by your man.

Her footballer lover Frank Lampard has just recently returned to the field after injury but has been unable to turn around his Chelsea's side's disastrous form.

Last night, the Blues managed a first win in ages as they beat Bolton, but so poor was the game that the fans jeered the players off the field.

The 31-year-old Daybreak presenter sat with her mouth pulled to one side in contemplation and was flanked by a stern-faced Frank Lampard Snr, her boyfriend’s dad.

And judging by his crossed arms and pinched mouth he was fuming at the crowd’s reaction to his son.

Frank senior, a former English footballer, is no stranger to the trials and tribulations of the beautiful game.

The former West Ham player,62, also had a stint as assistant manager at the club under his brother-in-law Harry Redknapp.

Dressed in a beige Mac and black polo neck to brave the chilly temperatures, Christine sat watching the game with her brown handbag perched on her knees.

Frank,'s efforts on the pitch were not well received by fans and although teammate Florent Malouda scored a goal in the 61-st minute it could not win over the spectators.

As Christine and Frank senior sat in the stands at Stamford Bridge one looking angry the other looking awkward, they were surrounded by smiles as other spectators found the situation amusing.

The match was Frank’s first appearance at Stamford Bridge since suffering an injury in August.

But after suffering the disappointing reaction by the crowds after last night’s game he may have found comfort in his girlfriend’s presence.

The couple who have been together for just over a year started their Christmas celebrations early this year and were spotted looking the worse for wear leaving an exclusive London nightclub earlier this month.

Stumbling out of South Kensington hotspot Boujis at 3am the pair looked merry, and ready for bed as they hopped in their taxi home.
