‘He’s got the new England kit ­actually, his aunt bought it for him recently, but he doesn’t want to wear it. He comes downstairs and Frank’s like “do you know what you did?” And I get a little kick out of that!’

Frank and Christine married after a four-year engagement at St Paul’s Church in front of friends, family and celebrity guests that included TV presenters Anthony McPartlin and Declan Donnelly.

Frank previously spent seven years with Elen Rivas, with whom he has two daughters, Luna and Isla before they decided to split in 2009.

The footballer was introduced to Christine at The Pride Of Britain Awards by fellow television presenter Piers Morgan, another guest tasked with saying a few words at the A-list bash, and also the first star to reveal Frank’s tears on the big day.

Piers recalled the meeting, saying on live television after the wedding: ‘Christine came into the bar and Frank said, ‘Who’s that? She looks a bit of a sort’, which I think is East End for ‘She’s attractive.’ I said, ‘She’s way above your league mate’.’

The broadcaster also revealed how Frank had spoken about falling madly in love with Christine during his wedding day speech.

He continued: ‘Anyway, next thing, they get together, he said in his speech, he was away playing for England and they spoke every night for four hours and just fell madly in love in one week.’

The couple, who wed in 2015, are parents to two young children while Frank is also a proud dad to his two older daughters Isla and Luna from his previous relationship with Elena Rivas.

Christine recently revealed Frank is like ‘the son my mum and dad never had’ as she told how he loves being doted on by his in-laws.

While discussing her parents Frederick and Mina, the beauty told Women & Home : ‘I love the relationship Frank has with my family. Frank is like the son my mum and dad never had.’

She continued: ‘If I’m working or I’m away, he’ll happily sit on the sofa and get spoiled the same way I do, and he loves it.’

The Loose Women panellist also admitted that life with the former Chelsea and England football player has changed somewhat since they had kids Patricia, five, and Freddie, three.

However, she revealed their 15-year romance is still going strong because they make sure to prioritise ‘us time’.

She said: ‘Frank and I always make time for each other, which feels really special. We love getting dressed up, going somewhere nice and having a proper laugh. I still get excited about doing that.’

‘We’ll go out for some food, but if it’s in the evening, we’ll be back at a decent time because we know we’ll get woken up at the crack of dawn by work or a small child.

‘I’m just as happy going out with Frank as I am going out with a gang of girls. I like a sneaky lunch so I can be back early and avoid a hangover.

‘If I knew I could stay in bed and sleep the next day after a night out, fine, but I can’t.’

Christine also discussed how Frank still longs for his mother Patricia, who died aged 58 in 2008, and who they named their daughter after.

She said: ‘There are still moments where losing his mum takes Frank’s breath away, and he can’t quite believe its been so long.’

She added: ‘I didn’t get to meet Frank’s mum but there’s a lovely picture of her in our house and even though the kids are really young, they know exactly who she is.’

‘It was a very emotional day when I asked Frank ‘Why don’t we call our daughter Patricia?’ I think he was overwhelmed. I look at her now and she’s nothing else but Patricia.’
