Wayne Rooney has shared his sons' sweet reaction to Coleen's I'm A Celeb trial. The former Manchester United and England star posted a collage of photos supporting his wife, who is currently in the Australian jungle.
Wayne, who has four children with Coleen, shared a four-photo collage showing each of their sons—Kai, 15, Klay, 11, Kit, 8, and Cass, 6— holding up a star to show how proud they are of their mum's impressive performance in her recent challenge. The post was captioned: "When you wake up and watch your mum smash the trial and take home them stars!! Proud boys #ImACeleb #WelcomeToTheMadHouse #MondayMotivation."
Fans flooded the comments to show their support for Coleen. One fan wrote: “Your Mum was brilliant, she comes across such a lovely person so down to earth, well done Coleen.” Another said: “Literally smashing it! The most calm and collected person I’ve ever seen… my winner x.” A third added: “I bet you boys were soooo incredibly proud of your mummy! She did absolutely amazing.” A fourth commented: “They are right to be proud, Coleen smashed it.”

@coleen_rooney/Instagram)In Sunday night's I'm A Celeb episode, BBC Radio 1 host Dean, 32, and TV personality Coleen, 38, took on the 'Absolute Carnage' trial together, which was Coleen's first challenge. The trial had the two campmates working together to secure gold stars for the camp. It involved one of them unscrewing stars from the back of a truck, with the other using tools found elsewhere in the cab.
While Dean struggled and screamed in the front of the vehicle, covered in what appeared to be slime and guts, Coleen remained calm as she worked to loosen stars bolted to a wall in the back. She kept her cool despite being covered in cockroaches and rats.

Writing in her The Sun column, Rebekah said : “It's blowing a gale at home, but there’s definitely a rumble in the jungle. Luckily, it’s not in the campmates’ stomachs, as Teabag Dean had Coleen with him for Absolute Carnage, and they managed to get nine stars. I’m applauding Coleen. She really held her nerve as the mealworms, cockroaches, and rats crawled all over her.”
The praise comes after Rebekah has aimed several jibes in her rival's direction since she entered camp Down Under - The WAG, who is married to Leicester footballer Jamie Vardy. Prior to the task, and after branding the campmates "dull and wet" ahead of a previous challenge, she confessed her hopes of seeing Coleen eating "bull's penis and humble pie"
Before that, Rebekah mocked Coleen's entrance to the show. "Coleen sank in the river twice. It's the gift that keeps on giving.” she said after the launch episode. And she also hit out straight away at Dean, who she said had been cosying up to her rival. "It’s so very obvious and, believe me, it is going to get tiresome. He absolutely loves to talk about Wagatha and when he does he knows he’s going to get airtime from it,” Rebekah initially raged in The Sun.
