After weeks of lying around in the sun, you'd think Frank Lampard and Christine Bleakley would be getting a bit of sunbathing.
So the Chelsea footballer decided to liven up his mammoth holiday with the Daybreak presenter by indulging in some playful wrestling.
Currently chartering a luxury yacht off the coast of Spain, Lampard teased Bleakley by threatening to throw her in the sea.

After grabbing her in a headlock, the 33-year-old enlisted the help of a male pal and gently shoved her in the water.
But with the temperatures soaring to 30C, it's doubtful Bleakley, 32, would have minded too much.
The couple, who got engaged in Los Angeles last month, have been holidaying in the Mediterranean for the past two weeks.
 
The first week they were joined by Lampard's father Frank Lampard Snr and his two daughters Isla and Luna.
But with the girls returning home to their mother Elen Rivas in London last Monday, the couple have now been joined by a group of friends on a chartered Ferretti 53 yacht called Helissio.

The 575,000 euro vessel includes three double bedrooms, two bathrooms and a large dining saloon.
After spending the past month holidaying in the U.S. and Spain, the pair are both sporting dark golden tans.
Christine and Frank announced their engagement last month after dating for 21 months, which the footballer had apparently spent three months and £150,000 planning.
Christine and Frank flew to America on a trip thought to have cost £30,000, which saw them visit Las Vegas and Los Angeles, while he’s said to have spent around £120,000 on the engagement ring.
But the Daybreak presenter insisted that the midfielder’s proposal was ‘not very fancy’.
The footballer apparently got down on one knee after a romantic beachside lunch in LA, which led Christine to cry for ten minutes.

After becoming engaged, Christine called in to her ITV colleagues Adrian Chiles and Kate Garraway and said: ‘I was beyond shocked. And it wasn’t very glamorous, it wasn’t very fancy - I know some people might expect that.
'It was very personal, very private actually, and we were just having a gorgeous lunch by the beach and he simply popped the question, it was completely out of the blue.’
She added: ‘Half-way through the lovey-dovey bit, I realised what he was about to do so I started to cry for about ten minutes and then he pulled the ring out and said ‘Will you marry me?’ and that was it.’
Christine and Frank are not believed to have set a date for the wedding, but it will be in Northern Ireland, where her family is from.
