Coleen Rooney

In December 2005, Rooney sold an exercise DVD entitled Coleen McLoughlin's Brand New Body Workout, which became a bestseller in the United Kingdom. She was paid £3 million to front the George at Asda campaign.

Rooney tried her hand at presenting when in May 2006, she assisted Sir Trevor McDonald on his show Tonight with Trevor McDonald in a programme about the genetic disorder Rett syndrome, from which her younger sister suffered. She went on to make her own series for ITV called Coleen's Real Women in which she was labelled as "The nation's favourite girl next door" and looked for "real women" to front advertising campaigns as an alternative to models.

Rooney's autobiography, Welcome to My World, was released in March 2007. This was followed by Coleen's Real Style the following year, published by HarperCollins. She has also published a four-book series called Coleen Style Queen from 2008 to 2010.

Rooney wrote a column for celebrity magazine Closer entitled "Welcome to My World". She left Closer in 2008 to write a weekly fashion and news column for OK! magazine.

They married in Portofino, Italy on 12 June 2008. The couple were paid a reported £2.5 million by Britain's OK! magazine for exclusive wedding information and pictures. The couple, dubbed Wayleen, moved into a new £1.3m mansion in Formby. They currently live in Prestbury, Cheshire, in a £4 million Neo-Georgian mega mansion.

In June 2010, Rooney struck a deal with retail and gambling company Littlewoods.

Coleen Mary McLoughlin was born in Liverpool, Merseyside, to Tony and Colette McLoughlin. Tony McLoughlin, who was a bricklayer, also ran a boxing club. The McLoughlins are of Irish descent. Coleen is the eldest of four children; her adopted sister Rosie, who suffered with Rett syndrome died on 5 January 2013 at the age of 14.

On 9th October 2019, Rooney made a Twitter post explaining that posts from her private Instagram account were being leaked to The Sun newspaper. She stated that to catch out who was selling the stories, she had restricted access on who could see the posts. She revealed that the only viewer of these posts was Rebekah Vardy's account, therefore insinuating that she was the culprit. This Tweet went viral, being dubbed 'Wagatha Christie' (a play on words of famous mystery writer Agatha Christie, and the football term 'WAG').

In June 2020 news broke that Vardy is taking Rooney to court for defamation, with legal costs reportedly set to hit £500,000 on each side.
