The lattice Boussinesq (lBSQ) equation is a member of the lattice Gel'fand-Dikii (lGD) hierarchy, introduced in \cite{NijPapCapQui1992}, which is an infinite family of integrable systems of partial difference equations labelled by an integer $N$, where $N=2$ represents the lattice Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) system, and $N=3$ the Boussinesq system. In \cite{Hiet2011} it was shown that, written as three-component system, the lBSQ system allows for extra parameters which essentially amounts to building the lattice KdV inside the lBSQ. In this paper we show that, on the level of the Lagrangian structure, this boils down to a linear combination of Lagrangians from the members of the lGD hierarchy as was established in \cite{LobbNijGD2010}. The corresponding Lagrangian multiform structure is shown to exhibit a `double zero' structure.
