Steven Gerrard’s daughter Lilly-Ella, 21, reveals she is set to give birth any day now as she shares snaps of her growing baby bump

The eldest daughter of Steven Gerrard has revealed she is almost ready to give birth.

Lilly-Ella, 21, took to her Instagram Story on Monday as she posted two snaps cradling her growing bump, followed by the caption, ‘Almost there’.

The influencer announced she was expecting her first child in January, which will also be her famous father’s first grandchild.

Lilly has been in a relationship with Lee Byrne – the son of jailed Irish gangster Liam Byrne – since October 2022, and their romance made headlines when it first came to light.

Incredibly, the former Liverpool and England legend will be just shy of his 45th birthday on May 30th, when his first grandchild enters the world.

The expectant parents have not revealed the baby’s gender yet, leading fans to believe they are keeping the sex a surprise until the birth.

The former midfielder has four children with wife Alex – daughters Lilly, Lexie, 19, Lourdes, 14, and a son named Lio, eight.

Sharing a photo of her positive pregnancy test earlier this year, Lilly told her 222,000 Instagram followers: ‘Our little secret. The best news… mini us is on the way.’

Responding to his daughter’s post, Gerrard wrote: ‘We can’t wait. Congratulations and we love you.’

Lilly’s partner – with whom she was first linked in 2022 – is the son of Kinahan Cartel gangster Liam Byrne, currently serving a five and a half year prison sentence for a plot to stockpile a stash of machine guns.

Ipswich Crown Court heard how Byrne and colleague Shaun Kent planted a haul of automatic weapons in a bid to help Kavanagh dupe the authorities.

Kavanagh, Byrne’s brother-in-law, was hoping to lead the National Crime Agency, Britain’s FBI, to the guns in a bid to reduce his sentence in a drug conspiracy case.

The staggering haul, imported from Holland, included the Skorpion, the type of automatic weapon used to murder Ashley Dale and Ellie Edwards on Merseyside.

Liam’s son Lee, celebrated the sentencing with a ‘get in there’ adding ‘I love you da. See you soon.’

And Lilly followed with a snap with her beau declaring her love for him.

The couple became an item after Lee moved into a gated community in Freshfield, one of Merseyside’s more desirable post codes.

The Byrne and Gerrard families are said to have bonded since the young couple began dating, with Lee describing Alex Gerrard, Steven’s stunning wife, as his second mum.

There is no suggestion that Lee or any member of the Gerrard family are involved in crime.
