Coleen Rooney posts sweet snap to celebrate son Kai’s 15th birthday ahead of I’m a Celebrity stint
COLEEN Rooney has shared sweet snaps to celebrate son Kai’s 15th birthday ahead of her I’m a Celebrity stint.
Yesterday The Sun revealed the incredible full line-up of this year’s I’m a Celebrity – including Coleen, 38.
The mum-of-four, who also shares Klay, 11, Kit, eight, and Cass, six, with 39-year-old husband Wayne, took to Instagram to mark her eldest son’s latest milestone.
Sharing a series of photos with Kai, Coleen wrote: “Happy 15th birthday @kairooney.10.
“I love you so much and you make me burst with pride.”
We previously revealed how Coleen had landed the biggest fee in I’m a Celebrity’s history, with hers far surpassing the £1.5m Nigel Farage was paid in 2023.
But it’s been reported that Coleen has a much cheekier reason for doing the show.
Insiders have claimed Coleen sees it as a chance to take a dig at her rival, Rebekah Vardy.
Becky, who appeared on the show in 2017 and was the third to be eliminated, famously clashed with Coleen during the high-profile ‘Wagatha Christie’ saga.
A source told the Daily Mail: “It’s a fantastic opportunity to wind Becky up.
“Coleen has got a mischievous side to her. While she has been dignified with how she dealt with being dragged through a court by Becky, it is bound to come up and Coleen has always been honest about the situation.”
Rebekah unsuccessfully sued her former pal for libel after Coleen told her social media followers she had turned detective to uncover the source of leaked stories about her.
Coleen memorably sparked a media frenzy by ending her bombshell post: “It’s . . . Rebekah Vardy’s account.”
Rebekah denied being responsible amid a furious backlash and sought legal action.
She was later ordered to pay 90 per cent of Coleen’s legal bill, which had risen to £1.8million from a reportedly agreed £540,000.
Coleen will be joined in the jungle this year by stars including Tulisa, Danny Jones and Oti Mabuse.
