Coleen Rooney surprised many by sharing a rare heartfelt message on social media to celebrate her husband Wayne’s 40th birthday. The usually private Coleen posted a loving picture of them holding a cocktail on Instagram, captioned simply with “Happy 40th birthday @waynerooney …love you xxx.”
Wayne and Coleen have been together since they were 12 and officially started dating at 16. In 2008, they exchanged vows in a lavish ceremony in Portofino, Italy.
Following Coleen’s post, well-wishes poured in from celebrity friends and family, with stars like Claire Sweeny, Coronation Street’s Alan Halsall, and former Premiere League footballer Jamie Carragher congratulating the couple.
To mark his 40th birthday, Wayne featured on his BBC podcast alongside boxing champ and I’m A Celeb star Tony Bellew, who surprised him with a birthday cake. Despite the milestone age, Wayne opted for a low-key celebration as he plans to spend time coaching kids in Dubai, a decision supported by his wife Coleen.
In a recent interview, Wayne opened up about his past struggles with alcohol, acknowledging that Coleen’s unwavering support has been crucial in keeping him on track. He credited her for helping him through tough times and expressed gratitude for her presence in his life.
