Loose Women’s Christine Lampard has opened up about reuniting with her parents after months apart due to the coronavirus lockdown.
Christine, 41, who is gearing up to take over ITV’s Lorraine, has been isolating with husband Frank Lampard, 22, and their 22-months-old daughter Patricia.
Now, the star has seen her family for the first time since lockdown began in March.
Speaking about the emotional reunion, she said: “I’m seeing my family for the first time at the moment. That’s been the hardest thing for me.

“When I finally got to see my family, it was emotional, which I’m sure everyone across the country has been finding.”
Christine went on to say: “We have been in touch constantly throughout, but when you have a little one, you really appreciate the relationship they have with their grandparents.
“I don’t like them not being part of that and missing out on all the tiny things they do day-to-day.”

The Newry, Northern Ireland-born TV star went on to say that her daughter Patricia has loved Frank being home during the lockdown.
“I am 100 per cent her world because I’ve been with her 24 hours a day” she said.
” Frank actually being at home for a big chunk at the beginning of lockdown was fantastic, as much as it was for the awful reasons we were there. It was just lovely.”

Frank, who manages premier league club Chelsea Football Club, gets tested for coronavirus twice a week.
This week sees Christine step into Lorraine Kelly’s shoes but she believes this won’t affect her daughter too much.
“I don’t think Patricia will worry about me doing Lorraine every day.
“The timings mean I will only really miss her breakfast, which Frank will do, but I will be back early and I’ll still be able to put her down for her nap and spend the rest of the day with her and put her to bed in the night time.”
