Coleen plans a new life for herself

Following Wayne Rooney’s latest scandal, wife Coleen is said to be thinking of a fresh start – without him at the centre…

❛ SHE’S SICK OF THE SYMPATHY AND JUDGEMENTS SHE GETS FROM PEOPLE ❜

She was left furious earlier this month when husband Wayne Rooney hit the headlines for a ten-hour boozy bender in Florida – where he was said to have downed shots and looked cosy with barmaid Vicki Rosiek, 32, before driving off in her car together.

And despite some saying Coleen was prepared to forgive the 32-year- old footballer, sources maintain there is still a question mark over their marriage. The day after the scandal broke, Coleen temporaril­y removed her wedding ring amid reports she ordered Wayne to rehab to deal with a drinking problem.

And last week, she jetted out of Washington DC with her parents and sons, Kai, nine, Klay, five, Kit, three, and oneyear-old Cass – leaving Wayne in Florida for a friendly match ahead of his first major league season with D.C. United.

Now insiders say she’s secretly thinking about plans for a life without Wayne at the centre.

Our source says, “Wayne’s actions have forced her to realise that she needs to put herself first and create a life that isn’t always focused on dealing with his bad behaviour. Her whole life in Washington has been about the boys and Wayne’s schedule, and she thinks something needs to change.”

Last week, it was reported that Coleen, 32, was considerin­g reality shows, including I’m A Celeb! and Strictly, in a bid to show the public she’s not just Wayne’s “long-suffering wife”.

Our source adds, “She’s not confirmed whether she’s in talks for a big show, but pals think she could be secretly planning something like that. She’s remaining tight-lipped on what the future holds for her and Wayne, but she’s sick of all the sympathy and judgements she gets from people. She doesn’t like to see herself as a victim and wants people to see the real her, and how strong she can be in times of crisis.”

Unfortunat­ely, Wayne’s recent betrayal is part of a long list of setbacks for the couple, including his arrest for public swearing and intoxicati­on at
