Coleen Rooney reveals heartbreaking reason son Kai BANNED dad Wayne from watching him play football
I’M A Celebrity star Coleen Rooney has revealed the heartbreaking reason her son Kai has banned his famous dad from watching him play football.
Along with her eldest Kai, 15, the WAG shares three more sons with husband Wayne – Klay, 11, Kit, eight, and Cass, six.
Much like his dad, Kai has impressed on the pitch and is currently signed to the Man Utd academy
But due to his dad’s enormous fame, his son has banned him from going to his matches.
Speaking on tonight’s I’m A Celebrity, Coleen said: “That’s the thing with kids I think, it’s hard to go on days out.
“Kai told Wayne to stop coming to football games, when he played grassroots tournaments and stuff because he used to get swarmed and he couldn’t even watch the game.
“How do you say to all of these kids, ‘Go away, I’m watching my son?’ Adults, it’s different you could speak to them, so he [Kai] just said, ‘Oh, Dad there’s no point you coming because you don’t even watch me play anyway.’ which is sad but it can’t be helped anyway.
“At the same time the fans help you along the way and get you where you are.”
Since arriving in the jungle, Coleen has given fans snippets into life in the Rooney household.
She previously opened up about a miscarriage during a conversation with her I’m A Celeb co-stars.
The mum-of-four shared her story during a conversation with I’m a Celebrity stars Oti Mabuse and GK Barry – admitting she’d have “liked a girl for Wayne.”
“I’ve had two miscarriages and I don’t know whether that has been girls, you know sometimes they say you can’t carry a certain sex, but they don’t investigate until you have your third one,” the star said.
She also spoke about her children’s names, which predominantly begin with the letter ‘K.’
One of the Rooney kids doesn’t share the ‘K’ initial with his brothers, as youngest Cass begins with a ‘C’.
Sharing why she chose not to follow suit with the ‘K’ initial, Coleen revealed: “I looked up the meaning of the name Cassius and with a K it meant blackbird, and with a C it meant clever.”
Cass’ middle name is Mac which is a sweet nod to Coleen herself, as her pals used to call her Coleen Mac when her maiden name was McLoughlin.
Coleen also revealed that Cass’ initials, Cass Mac Rooney, meant “clever son of Rooney,” and declared: “That’s the only connection I’ve got to the kids!”
But when it comes to her three other sons, Coleen has opted for ‘K.’
It’s been reported that Coleen and Wayne chose all ‘K’ names for their first three boys because they simply like the sound of the ‘K’ at the start.
Coleen has been very frank when it comes to discussing her personal life while in the jungle.
She previously left her campmates in hysterics as she took a cheeky swipe at her husband.
Wayne took over as the head coach at Plymouth Argyle Football Club in May.
Discussing the move, Danny Jones asked: “Is he loving managing?”
Coleen responded: “Yeah, he does enjoy it, it’s hard though. I find it more nerve wracking him being a manager than I did… I feel more pressure.”
