Christine Bleakley will have to wait before she can call herself Mrs Lampard
Christine Bleakley and footballer Frank Lampard are still waiting to announce their wedding date – quashing reports that it would be this year.
The couple have endured endless speculation over the date and location of their big day since TV presenter Christine announced her engagement to the Chelsea player a year ago.
Christine, 33, even had to deny a persistent rumour that they had offered to pay several couples to rearrange their weddings so she and Frank could secure a date and venue this summer.
Now I'm told all bets are off and that Christine has put wedding plans on the back burner.
A spokesman for Frank tells me: 'There never were any plans for a wedding this year, nor have we made any plans for next year.'
Christine is telling friends that moving into their newly refurbished home is her and Frank's priority. 'Their focus is moving into the house in August,' says a source close to the couple.
'They have been waiting for over a year for the property to be ready and now they are both very excited to be moving in at last. They've decided that the house will be their focus, not getting married.

'Frank will be flying to America to play with Chelsea soon, so the plan now is to get married when there's more time.' Friends say that the couple are blissfully happy together.
Frank, also 33, bought the 8?million townhouse in Chelsea seven years ago – and has ploughed a further 800,000 into a lavish refurbishment that includes an underground pool.
Former Daybreak presenter Christine told Closer magazine earlier this month about their wedding plans.
She said: 'The truth is we've planned very little and nothing is set in stone. That being said, of course me and Frank are really looking forward to it.'
Will Young has been taking advice from veteran actress Liza Minnelli after being cast as the Emcee in the new West End production of Cabaret.
I'm told Will was so desperate to meet the star after her performance at the White Rose Ball in London that he waited backstage until almost 2am.
'Liza told Will to just go for it,' says a pal of the Pop Idol winner.
'He was enthralled by her tales of working on Cabaret. He hopes there is a chance she may even appear in the show herself.'
And Will told me: 'Emcee is the role I'd been holding out for – I can't wait.'
