In the latest episode of Loose Women, Christine Lampard made a surprising revelation about her husband, Frank Lampard’s intelligence. During the discussion, she shared that while playing for Chelsea, Frank took an IQ test designed as a baseline for concussion assessments. His score was exceptionally high, reportedly around 150, placing him in the top one to two percent of the population.
Christine humorously admitted that Frank “completely smashed it” and even joked that Mensa might have been interested in recruiting him. Co-panelist Denise Welch added that Frank had achieved an A in Latin at GCSE level, completing the qualification a year early. Christine confirmed this, playfully rolling her eyes.
Frank, now the head coach of Coventry City FC, initially took the test in 2007 after teammate John Terry suffered a concussion. Speaking to the Coventry Telegraph, he recalled how Chelsea’s doctor, Brian English, had all players take IQ tests to establish a cognitive benchmark. Frank downplayed the achievement, saying others were more impressed than he was. He also mentioned that Christine’s score was just below his, making for some friendly rivalry.
With an IQ of 150 and academic excellence, Frank’s intelligence extends beyond football, adding another impressive facet to his career.
