Frank Lampard is steering Coventry City on a determined quest to reach the Premier League through the Championship play-offs. After a rocky season start, the former Chelsea midfielder took the helm in November 2024, sparking an impressive resurgence that lifted the Sky Blues from 17th place to a top-five finish and into the play-offs.
Coventry now face a tough second-leg semi-final against Sunderland, trailing 2-1 after a dramatic first game. Despite setbacks—including a late Sunderland winner capitalizing on an error—they remain focused on overturning the deficit and booking a Wembley final spot.
Expressing his ambitions ahead of the decisive fixtures, Lampard described the prospect of managing in the Premier League as “magical,” but emphasized the importance of concentrating on the immediate challenges. “We have to focus on three games, and specifically one now, and then the away leg to see what we can do,” he said. “It’s exciting that we’re here because everyone wants to be in the play-offs.”

Supporting him off the pitch is his glamorous wife, Christine Lampard, a well-known television presenter. The couple, who met in 2009 and married in 2015, share an elegant London mansion worth approximately £10 million. Their family includes two daughters together, as well as two children from Frank’s previous relationship.
Christine occasionally offers her followers a peek inside their exquisite home, revealing a tasteful blend of luxury and comfort. The property features a spacious garden outfitted with a stylish grey outdoor couch, lush plants, a statement wall, and a premium barbecue setup—perfect for summer gatherings.
In 2024, Christine shared on Loose Women how she found a “secret nook” in the garden shed, a peaceful retreat amid family life. “There’s very, very few hiding places in our house… But I walked into [the shed] the other day and thought, ‘This could be a good hiding place,’” she revealed.
Inside, the mansion boasts modern design elements with integrated kitchen appliances and an extensive array of gadgets. Soft, warm lighting enhances the inviting atmosphere, highlighted by a magnificent chandelier in the main living area. This luxurious fixture, adorned with gold leaves, crystals, and candle holders, hangs above a mirrored platform that amplifies its elegant glow.
Additional rooms showcase refined touches, such as a solid wooden dining table paired with cream chairs and a large white lampshade overhead. The entrance hallway impresses with sleek grey tiled flooring and a graceful white curved staircase featuring glass-paneled black-framed banisters and a grey runner.
With the promise of promotion on the horizon, Frank Lampard hopes to soon return to their stunning home to celebrate a new chapter in his managerial career—one that would erase previous play-off heartbreaks and bring Coventry City the success their fans crave.
