I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! runner up Coleen Rooney, 38, revealed that she’d quickly got back into the swing of domestic life after returning from the ITV jungle.
Wayne Rooney ’s wife shared a photo on her Instagram Stories on Thursday morning, showing that she was running her boys to school. Coleen snapped a selfie from the driver’s seat, showing her looking back to her usual glam self in subtle but flawless makeup, diamond earrings, and a burgundy jumper. While 11-year-old Klay smiled in the seat next to her, her two youngest boys in the back - Cass, six, and Kit, eight - looked less than happy to be heading to school, with oldest son Kai, 15, not visible in the shot.
“Back to the school run!!” Coleen captioned the photo, along with a heart emoji. She also added a clip from the Clean Bandit song “Rather Be,” with the meaningful lyrics saying: “When I am with you there’s no place I’d rather be.”

Speaking on Good Morning Britain, she told hosts Richard Madeley and Susanna Reid: "He just said how much he missed me, how proud he was and that the support back home has been unbelievable. He just can't wait to see me and I can't wait to see him as well."
While Coleen made it to the final of I’m a Celeb and won an impressive 44.8% of the public vote, she previously revealed that she considered leaving the show just one week in because she had missed her family too much. Speaking to the Mirror, she shared how she broke down in tears after being reminded of Wayne and her sons, whose faces were emblazoned on her pillow.
“In that first week, I did wake up one morning and I looked at the pillow and I saw on it obviously Wayne and the kids, and I had a little cry and I thought I don’t know whether I can go all this way,” she says. But she says she “soon snapped out it” by getting stuck into her chores instead - namely the washing up.
Now the family woman is set to give even more of a glimpse inside her family life, with a Kardashians-style reality TV show, starring herself, Wayne, and their sons. The show concept quickly sparked a bidding war, and Disney Plus and Amazon Prime Video are reportedly battling it out to secure the rights of the Rooney series.
"It was all set to be Disney's and then Amazon appeared in the frame. That has sent the fee up. It looks now like the show will go to Disney, but there's still time,” an industry insider divulged. “Coleen's time on I'm a Celeb has made her the nation's sweetheart, even if she didn't win. The British public can't get enough of her. Her profile is bigger than ever and the fee for her family's reality show will reflect that."
