Elen Rives shows off those curves in another tiny bikini in Ibiza

It's been four months since she split from her footballer beau Frank Lampard and Elen Rives looks determined to prove she has already moved on. The 34-year-old former model looked in her element as she splashed about in her tiny white bikini on a family holiday in Ibiza. Looking tanned and toned, Elen certainly showed her ex what he was missing.




Look what you're missing! Frank Lampard's ex, Elen Rives, gets into the swing of things as she shows off her bikini body on a holiday with their two children Luna,three, and Isla, 23 months and some friends in Ibiza

Elen, who was enjoying the sunshine break with her and Frank's two children Luna, three, and Isla, 23 months, and some family friends, didn't seem to have a care in the world much less to be nursing a broken heart. But it's perhaps because the former WAG has been getting her fair share of attention since splitting with the 31-year-old Chelsea star in March.

She was spotted out on the town with two different men in the past month. First there was 21-year-old Stevenage FC player Lawrie Wilson. At the beginning of June, Elen and Lawrie enjoyed a night out in London stopping for cocktails at the Soho House private members' club before spending the night together at the upmarket Sanderson hotel.

Then the week before last, she was seen out in London's West End again with a chic-looking unidentified man - thought to be a city banker. Earlier this year, Frank was linked to socialite and model Saskia Boxford but the footballer insisted they were just good friends.

Elen Rives hits Harrods as she prepares for £12.5m split from footballer Lampard

Elen Rives clearly has no plans to adjust her lifestyle just yet. The former fiancée of Frank Lampard headed out to Harrods for a spot of shopping following the news of her split from the Chelsea footballer.

Elen, who has two daughters Luna, two, and Isla, one, with the England midfielder, has called time on their seven-year relationship. She is understood to have reached her decision while on holiday in Florida last month.

Elen can expect up to half of Lampard's £25million fortune even though she never married him, but she may have to sign a confidentiality agreement.





Clancy met up with her love-split friend for the trip


Yesterday the pair were locked in crisis talks as they discussed where she will live, visiting rights and a possible settlement. Friends of Lampard have put the split down to the trauma brought on by the death of his mother Pat in April.


But the seeds of the break-up appear to have been sown when Miss Rives, 30, twice endured allegations of his infidelity. Friends of the model said she has never forgiven him for his alleged fling with an Eastern European brunette during a boys' only jaunt to Las Vegas two years ago. Lampard, 30, was pictured with the woman by a tabloid newspaper and is said to have spent four hours with her in a villa. 'Elen felt humiliated by the whole episode,' said a friend. 'Frank has also never given her an adequate explanation for what he was doing, so it has simply festered.

'He has also not followed through on his promise to make her his wife - but it is the Las Vegas trip which has done all the real damage.' Lampard had been accused of playing away before. In 2006 a woman claimed she had sex with him at a hotel in Barcelona - Miss Rives's home city. The footballer, meanwhile, is said to have been enraged to discover in a Sunday newspaper that his fiancée had been married before.

A friend of Lampard said: 'There was Elen going on to Frank about the importance of being honest with one another when she had been married and never told him.'

Lampard was also unhappy at his fiancée's antics during the World Cup in Germany, when she was a ringleader among England 'WAGs' on raucous nights out. His friend said: 'Frank was very embarrassed and annoyed. He had a £5million contract with Tesco at the time which he thought he might lose because of the damage Elen was doing his image.'

Last night a source close to the former air hostess said: 'Elen told Frank two weeks ago that neither of them could go on living a lie - that the relationship was over.' Miss Rives has seen a solicitor about the split from Lampard, who is thought to be paid £120,000 a week.

The friend added: 'She has been told that although they never married, she can expect around £10million.' But Ayesha Vardag, a lawyer specialising in high-value divorce cases, said that while she did not know the details, that sounded 'awfully high'. Lampard and Miss Rives spent much of yesterday at their £3million Chelsea home, where she is staying until she finds somewhere else.

Leaving to take his daughters Luna, two, and one-year-old Isla for a short drive, Lampard refused to comment, merely saying: 'We will not be making a formal announcement. Please leave us alone.' Miss Rives left later in a taxi. She said: 'I can't comment on anything I'm afraid. I am sorry.'

So you heard about the LA Lakers cheerleaders then? Premiership stars turn out to see Beckham's favourite team

Premiership stars swapped their footballs for basketballs last night as they turned out en masse to watch the LA Lakers at London's O2 Arena.But not being a particularly popular sport in the UK, could it have been the team's world famous cheerleaders that lured them across London on a cold and wet evening?Stars from Arsenal and Chelsea were snapped in their VIP front row seats at the sold out pre-season game against the Minnesota Timberwolves.





Arsenal stars (L-R) Robin van Persie, Thomas Vermaelen, Cesc Fabregas and Carlos Vela watch the LA Lakers - and their cheerleaders - as the O2 Arena last night



A perfect spot to watch the match - and check out the scantily-clad ladies dancing their socks off before and during the game.Maybe they'd had a word with David Beckham who is a regular at the LA Lakers games in Los Angeles, and has been snapped a couple of times cheekily checking out the cheerleaders.The Laker Girls performed their energetic routines in yellow shorts and cropped tops that showed off their toned midriffs.

Costume change: The girls swap their yellow skimpy outfits for purple ones as they strut their stuff on the courtThey also treated their delighted onlookers to a costume change and came out for another number in tiny purple skirts and cropped tops.But while they may have been the main attraction for some, let's not forget there was actually a basketball game going on.

Hello there! David Beckham was caught checking out a cheerleader's derriere when he attended a game two years ago



And there was a lot of famous faces in the crowd at the Docklands venue who had come to watch the Lakers and the Timberwolves in action.Snapped in the front row was four of Arsenal's biggest stars who had taken the night off and headed east for the big game.




Feeling a bit skint, van Persie? The Arsenal stars watch mega multi-millionaire Kobe Bryant in action for the Lakers



Robin van Persie, Thomas Vermaelen, Francesc Fabregas and Carlos Vela sat together and looked as though they were having a great night as they laughed and chatted together and attentively watched the game.Also in the audience was Sunderland stars Darren Bent and Anton Ferdinand, West Ham's Carlton Cole, Manchester City's Joleon Lescott and Shaun Wright Phillips, Fulham's Bobby Zamora and Aston Villa's Steve Sidwell.

Manchester City's Joleon Lescott and Fulham's Bobby Zamora - who is nursing a broken leg - were also at the O2


They were joined by Chelsea star Ashley Cole and Tottenham Hotspur defender William Gallas.And while most of the footballers command thousand and thousands of pounds wages every week, their salaries look rather measly compared to last night's biggest star in the arena - Kobe Bryant.The 6ft 6in star earns approximately £16million each year, making the Premiership stars seem practically skint in comparison.

Laker's Steve Blake storms round a Minnesota player - but it wasn't enough and the Lakers lost 92 to 111


And he admitted last night that he probably wouldn't have played but did to repay British basketball fans. He only managed six minutes on the court, as he continues to nurse a knee injury, and the Lakers ended up losing 92 to 111.But he said: '(The fans) were really the only reason I played.

There was a sense of responsibility to get out there and play . When we fly all this way to get here and the fans come out you feel a responsibility to get in there and play a bit.'Also among the celebrity fans last night was comedian James Corden, JLS, Lewis Hamilton's father Anthony and Radio 1 DJ Chris Moyles, who was snapped sitting with his show's sports presenter Tina Daheley.
