Christine Lampard melted hearts on Wednesday when she uploaded an ultra-rare picture of her two children Patricia and Freddie.
Taking to Instagram, the Loose Women presenter, 45, shared a snapshot of the sibling duo exploring a woodland area framed by towering chestnut trees. Patricia, five, looked so grown up dressed in a mint-green summer dress and pink sandals.

Echoing Patricia's outfit, Freddie was also dressed in a vivid green ensemble consisting of a forest green sports top and a pair of white shorts with green stripes running down the sides. In her caption, she wrote: "All the greens."

What lovely hair Patricia has," while a second chimed in: "Oh my goodness how tall they're getting... look at that beautiful hair... like her mum," and a third added: "They're growing up so fast, and those lovely curls."
Christine shares her two children with her husband, Frank Lampard. Aside from Patricia and Freddie, former Chelsea manager Frank is also a doting father to Luna and Isla from his former relationship with Elen Rivas.
Lovebirds Christine and Frank, who wed in 2015, welcomed Patricia in September 2018. In a touching tribute, they opted to name their firstborn after Frank's late mother Patricia who sadly passed away in 2008 from pneumonia.

In March 2021, they went on to welcome their second child, Freddie. Whilst Freddie's birth appeared to go smoothly, Christine has spoken about how she later developed a hernia.

"If I hadn't physically seen a doctor at six weeks, I don't think my hernia would ever have been diagnosed."
Christine and Frank seemingly have no plans to expand their brood. When asked by the Sunday Telegraph if the pair wanted to welcome more children, the TV star replied: "No, no, no. I have a beautiful girl, a gorgeous boy. I'm not pushing my luck."
