How many more girls are there, Wayne?

Coleen wants to trust him.. but needs answers

- BY PAUL BYRNE

COLEEN Rooney has demanded the truth from husband Wayne about his night with Laura Simpson.

A pal said she asked him: “How many times have you done this?”

DISTRAUGHT Coleen Rooney has been left plagued by doubts over husband Wayne’s version of his latenight car trip with another woman, friends revealed last night.

The pregnant 31-year-old told pals she wants to believe the Everton star did nothing more than ogle Laura Simpson, but is not convinced it would have not gone any further if he had not been stopped for allegedly driving her VW Beetle while drunk.

And her turmoil deepened as Laura yesterday claimed she would have probably ended up romping with Rooney. It is also said Coleen demanded to know during crisis talks yesterday if the striker was keeping any other secrets.

She has moved back into the couple’s home in Prestbury, Cheshire, after spending two days with her parents.

But one friend said she went back to prepare their children for school.

The pal added: “As far as Coleen is concerned she has just moved back into her own home but she is still in turmoil and doesn’t believe Wayne’s story. She’s been saying to him, ‘How many other times have you done this?’

“She fears he was going somewhere for sex. She can’t understand why he’s in the girl’s car driving in the first place. Most of us believe the marriage is not over but nor is the inquest.

“Coleen is not hot-headed and she desperatel­y wants to believe Wayne but she is wondering if there are other secrets. They were under the same roof last night but it’s a big house and nothing is resolved. The kids are back at school this week and it’s close by their house so Coleen needs to be there.”

Rooney, 31, met 29-year-old Laura at the Symposium bar in Wilmslow, Cheshire, last Thursday.

The pair got a cab to her friend’s home where she left her car and it is believed the former England captain was driving her to her house because she was too drunk when police pulled him over in the early hours of Friday.

Coleen was on holiday in Majorca at the time with sons, Kai, seven, Klay, four, and one-year-old Kit.

The pal added: “She can’t get her head

around that they headed for the girl’s mate’s place. They couldn’t go in because apparently the mate’s father was there, so where were they heading after that?

“Coleen is not sure whether they were going to the marital home or to a hotel somewhere.

“If he was a decent guy he could’ve just paid for a cab to get the girl home if she had too much to drink. Where were they going? What were they intending to do?”

The situation left Coleen in so much turmoil she even phoned Laura to get

her side of the story. But one friend said the move just left her more confused. The pal added: “She doesn’t know what to believe. Every time that girl opens her mouth she contradict­s what Wayne told Coleen about what happened that night.”

Laura yesterday urged Coleen to forgive Rooney and move on.

The mum of one, who claimed the footballer ogled her breasts before they had a “kiss and cuddle”, reportedly said: “Don’t be mad at him, it wasn’t that bad.

“I can understand her being mad with him over the arrest, that was stupid and on reflection he should never have driven my car but he didn’t seem to be over the limit.

“But she can’t blame him for anything that happened with me because nothing did really, although we would have ended up sh ***** g no doubt. What we did was only a bit of harmless fun.”

While Rooney and Coleen’s nine-year marriage is not over, friends fear he has used up all his chances. She was pregnant with Kai in 2010 when he allegedly romped with hookers Jenny Thompson and Helen Wood.

And earlier this year, Coleen was furious at reports he had “cosied up” to a woman during a late-night pub session while she was in Madrid. If the couple cannot resolve their difference­s and do end up divorcing, it could cost the former Manchester United star around £90million in payouts.

His weekly earnings, from football and other lucrative commercial deals are estimated to be around £200,000 a week. And when his recent transfer to Everton, his pension, investment­s, and future earnings are taken into account, his total wealth could be up to £140million. Coleen could walk away with 60% of the total.

She has amassed £15million in her own right from fashion design, exercise DVDs and books.

But with three kids to care for, and another on the way, she would be entitled to half his fortune based on earnings, plus maintenanc­e for the children, and her unborn child for the next 18 years.

Coleen would also be entitled to 60% of his pension pot as she would argue she put her own job prospects on hold to look after the children.

Rooney is expected to face the wrath of his Everton manager Ronald Koeman when he reports for training today for the first time since his arrest, ahead of the clash against Tottenham.

He is expected to apologise for his behaviour but will not escape being fined two weeks’ wages, around £300,000. Rooney is due to appear in court at Stockport on September 18 charged with drink-driving.

WAYNE Rooney is a fabulously well-paid footballer living in the public eye so he has nobody to blame but himself for his latest scrape with the law and trouble at home.

Sympathy is reserved for pregnant long-suffering wife Coleen who deserves better than to be humiliated yet again by a player whose brains are clearly in his feet.

Should she stay or should she go is a decision only Coleen Rooney is in a position to make. The best the rest of us can do is wish them well.
