NEVER mind the political problems we have these days, some of us are occupied by the possibility that our own glamorous celebrity Christine Bleakely might have to decamp to the ‘shores of Americay’ because that’s where her fiancé Chelsea footballer Frank Lampard may have to go for his next contract.
I like Lampard. Apart from being a wonderful footballer he’s not showy, nor will he be found cavorting with the sort of women other players have. He’s a solid player and Chelsea fans want him signed up but the Stamford Bridge hierachy has other ideas. So Frank, like David Beckham before him, may have to move to America. Christine, a common sense Ulster girl, will have to go too which messes up her career here somewhat. Who would want to be commuting across the Atlantic every week to keep work commitments in the UK as she would have to? Obviously there is a price to pay for the glamorous lifestyle she leads. But then in any high powered relationship where there are two careers involved it is the woman who almost always has to do the sacrificing. She can’t have it all, something which must lie heavily with her.
