Coleen Rooney and kids enjoy festive day out but someone quick to butt in with cheeky Wayne jibe

I'm A Celebrity star Coleen Rooney posted a sweet festive snap as she took the kids on a Christmas day out - but husband Wayne was nowhere to be seen

Coleen Rooney has shared a sweet family snap as she took the kids to 'Lapland'.

The mum-of-four was pictured with Santa and her youngest sons Kit, eight, and six-year-old Cass, as they posed for a festive photo with two of her pals and their children. The 38-year-old beamed for the camera as she snuggled up in a big black puffer coat, days after returning home from the tropical I'm A Celeb jungle.

But football manager husband Wayne and their two eldest boys, Kai, 15, and Klay, 11, were nowhere to be seen. However, Coleen revealed it wasn't the real Lapland she was at, but Lapland UK, which is in Ascot in Berkshire. Though there are plans to open a Lapland UK up north in time for Christmas 2025.

She captioned the post: "The most magical day at @laplanduk. Thank you for having us, we loved it. So excited for Lapland UK Manchester next year." And fans were quick to comment, with one joking: "Did they drop the cockroaches straight after this photo then?" in reference to her I'm A Celeb appearance, which saw Coleen come second to McFly's Danny Jones. Another quipped: "Wayne's beard looking long," suggesting it could be him in the Santa suit.

Since leaving the jungle, Coleen has reportedly been offered some big money deals - and it's said TV bosses and streaming giants are now fighting to see who can land a reality show deal with the WAG, which is already said to be worth 'well over £1 million.' It comes after Coleen was reportedly paid £1.5 million for her I'm A Celeb stint, said to be the highest fee any celeb has ever received for the show.

A source claimed that there is a 'huge bidding war' being waged over Coleen, with networks 'desperate' to be the one to sign her. Speaking to Closer magazine, they said: "ITV are the frontrunners to get her for Loose Women and she would love to do it, but Netflix are now coming in with some big-money offers – we’re talking offers of well over £1 million."

The source teasingly added that networks noticed that Coleen was a 'good listener' and wanted to 'capitalise' on her personable nature - but they didn’t give more information away about the types of shows she might be considering. Though Coleen is no stranger to TV work. Before she had kids, she hosted successful TV show Coleen's Real Women, which found real women to appear in modelling campaigns.

And of course, she recently appeared in three-part documentary Coleen Rooney: The Real Wagatha Christie Story, which first aired on Disney Plus last year and is now showing on ITVX. It tells the story of what really happened following her now infamous spat with Rebekah Vardy, who she accused of selling stories taken from her private Instagram to The Sun newspaper.

Away from TV, Coleen is also set to land mega money brand deals. And she's already on her way to earning big bucks thanks to a wise investment she made before entering the jungle. Coleen snapped up as many shares as she could in Liverpool-based sports health firm Applied Nutrition after becoming an ambassador for the brand.

She used their products in the jungle and is set to launch her own range of proteins, collagen, and vitamin supplements for Applied Nutrition in the New Year. A source close to Coleen said last month: “With the company now valued at a staggering £350 million, Coleen stands to do incredibly well from this investment.”
