As Coleen shows off a new look ahead of her much publicised WAGatha trial, an aesthetics specialist warns her not to go overboard with treatments
“Coleen looks great, but needs to be careful not to get addicted”

Aid charity football match in Manchester last week, Coleen Rooney drew attention from fans, who were shocked by her new look.
Pictures of the mum of four smiling from the stands racked up hundreds of comments from social media users musing over how different her face looked. One wrote, “New teeth, or lips… something has changed, she looks different,” while another posted, “What has she done to her face?!” Others said, “Omg her face!!!”, and, “Doesn’t even look like her!”
And sources have told Closer that Coleen, 35, has splashed out on non-surgical treatments as she prepares for her highprofile High Court trial against WAG Rebekah Vardy, which could take place in just a few months’ time.
CONFIDENCE LIFT
The source says, “Coleen knows her fans love her girlnext-door-image and following her life as a busy mum, but she’s been so determined to look the best she can ahead of this trial, when she knows all eyes will be on her.
“It’s all non-surgical procedures like laser, lip fillers and Botox, as well as EMSculpt [a non-invasive clinical treatment that is said to build muscle and burn fat], and she’s hired a new image consultant to give her a sexy and sophisticated new look. It has given her a huge confidence lift.”
It’s been a stressful two years for Coleen since she first accused former friend Rebekah of selling stories on her and her family following an Instagram “sting”. Rebekah, who alleged she suffered anxiety and panic attacks following the claims, which she vehemently denies, is suing Coleen for libel in a bid to “vindicate [her] reputation”.
As well as the strain of the upcoming trial, Closer reported last month how Coleen was left humiliated when Wayne was forced to publicly apologise after a string of embarrassing snaps of him looking worse for wear in a nightclub in
July – and then in a hotel room alongside three scantily 21-year-old women – went viral on social media. The women all insisted nothing untoward had happened.
It followed years of the couple’s marriage being rocked by scandals, including Wayne cheating with a number of prostitutes, being caught in compromising positions with other women while boozing and admitting to being addicted to gambling after losing £500,000 in a two-hour spree at a Casino
in Manchester. Despite his misdemeanours, Coleen has always stood by her husband.
EMOTIONAL TURMOIL
The source adds, “Coleen has been through a tough time personally, but always stayed strong for her family and now she wanted to do something for herself. Her new look has helped her to feel positive, which is just what she needs at the moment.”
But despite her beauty overhaul giving her the boost she needs, Harley Street Cosmetic Practitioner Amar Suchde, of AMS Aesthetics, warns that turning to noncosmetic surgery to “fix” any emotional turmoil could be the start of a destructive path to addiction.
Amar says, “Coleen looks great – she appears to have had fillers in her cheeks, lips and under her eyes, and possibly Botox on her forehead. She has just the right balance for her face, but it’s important she doesn’t go overboard and become addicted, which can easily happen.
“People can become addicted to that ‘fresh and plumped’ look you get straight after having non-surgical work, such as fillers, because of the happiness boost it gives them. So, while it makes people who are going through difficult times – which may be the case with Coleen – feel good, it’s important not to become hooked on that high.
CAREER
“Aesthetics is such a powerful tool as you can really build esteem and morale, because all men and women want to look good – but there’s a difference between confidence and happiness.”
Closer recently revealed how Coleen has also been doing everything she can to stay in optimum physical and mental health through her recent tough times.
She’s posted pictures on Instagram of herself enjoying green juices, as well as double workout sessions of Pilates and hot yoga, and a source added how she’s also ditched “anything that could cause a dip in her mood and focus” from her diet – like starchy white bread and pasta, and high-sugar snacks.
Sources also claim Coleen’s latest transformation could give her the boost she needs to relaunch her career in TV, having previously hosted ITV series Coleen’s Real Women and assisted Sir Trevor McDonald on his show Tonight With Trevor McDonald in a programme about the genetic disorder Rett syndrome, from which her late younger sister, Rosie, suffered.
The source says, “Coleen and Wayne are currently filming a biopic film about his life, and having cameras following them
❛ SHE’S DETERMINED TO LOOK THE BEST SHE CAN BEFORE THIS TRIAL WHEN ALL EYES WILL BE ON HER ❜
around has given her a taste of that world again. She would love to go back into TV, and it’s more achievable now that the boys are older. She wants to look and feel the best she possibly can.”
