Frank Lampard fled lavish Christmas bash after his home alarm went off, sparking fears for his stalker-victim wife Christine and baby daughter

FRANK Lampard fled a staff party after his burglar alarm went off, sparking fears for his stalker-victim wife and their child.

Oddball Christof King walked free from court last July, despite a three-year campaign of terror against TV presenter Christine, 39.

So when Derby County manager Frank, 40, got an intruder alert while at the £20,000 staff bash he had organised, he dropped everything and raced to his Derbyshire farmhouse.

A source said: “Frank is a lovely guy and wanted to show his appreciation to the training ground staff for all their hard work this year.

“Everyone had a welcome drink and was having a good time but just as Frank sat down for his food, he got a phone call and just shot off and no one saw him again.

“Apparently an alarm had been triggered at his new house where Christine and their baby were.

“Christine has been through a lot with her stalker so it was a worrying moment for them both so Frank stayed home and looked after his family.

“Like most people in the public eye, Frank and Christine spend whatever it takes to keep them safe but it’s always worrying when an alarm sounds, especially for Christine.”

Weirdo King, 39, had previously turned up at the couple’s main £11million home in London and also sent Loose Women star Christine sinister tweets and letters.

He was warned he faced jail over the harassment, which left Christine, now mum to three-month-old Patricia, too scared to leave the house.

But King, of Kilburn, North London, got just a suspended sentence.

He was also banned for life from contacting the couple and given a restraining order that stops him going within 100 yards of their home.
