Steven Gerrard swaps UK for LA again as he enjoys family holiday

Steven Gerrard has returned to Los Angeles with his family as they enjoy a change of scene in the Golden State.

The former Liverpool FC captain enjoyed two seasons playing for LA Galaxy in 2015 and 2016. At the time Steven, originally from Huyton, moved into a Beverley Hills pad with wife Alex and their three daughters.

Steven previously said that settling his family in was a challenge for him and getting them used to life in Los Angeles was key. He said: "If the girls are happy, that will certainly help me perform on the pitch".

When the 42-year-old announced his decision to leave LA, he posted on Instagram that it was a "special place" and that he would miss it. So it's no surprise he and his family have headed back there for a holiday.

On Tuesday, the Liverpool legend shared a snap of himself, Alex and their daughter Lourdes with some friends at Javier's Cantina in Los Angeles. A number of his celebrity pals commented on the post.

Robbie Keane simply posted two fire emojis, while Scouse comedian John Bishop said: "Great picture". Former LA Galaxy midfielder Rafael Garcia also posted fire emojis.

Fans were also quick to wish the family well. Ryan Tillbury said: "Beautiful family! Huge regrets never getting to England to see you play back in the day! Hope to meet you some day! Come visit us in Fairbanks, Alaska!"

Liam Wallace said: "Nice picture", while Anne Doherty said: "Great photo of you and your family, hope you're having a great holiday".
