Plenty of young kids have iPads why shouldn’t be get one for his little girl." "I’d do the same if I had the money. My kids would go without nothing and I wouldn’t feel a drop of guilt at all. He’s earned it." "Steven Gerrard already donates to charity and does charity work why should he be shunned for buying his daughter a gift? Let him do as he pleases with his money." "I don’t see the problem. If you don’t like his posts unfollow? Surely it’s that simple. What’s wrong with earning as much money as possible?" Steven has four children with wife Alex Curran - daughters Lilly-Ella, 13, Lexie, ten, Lourdes, six and Lio, seven months.
