Wayne Rooney is showing off his post-World Cup transformation as he stepped out for a cosy date night with wife Coleen. The football legend, 40, looked lean and trim after reportedly losing “loads of weight” and ditching his beard, while Coleen, 40, glowed in a cream-and-black dress.
The couple shared a sweet snap on Instagram, with fans praising Wayne’s impressive glow-up. Comments included: “Looking well our boy!”, “Looking healthy Wayne! Coleen too”, and “Rooney looking proper healthy and noticeably lost loads of weight. Great to see.”
Wayne has been back on TV as a BBC World Cup pundit, and fans couldn’t help but notice his fitter, clean-shaven appearance during broadcasts last week.
The outing also comes shortly after Wayne and Coleen celebrated their 18th wedding anniversary, sharing heartfelt posts on Instagram. Wayne wrote: “Happy anniversary Coleen Rooney. Where’s them 18 years gone. Thanks for everything. Love you.” Coleen shared a smiling selfie of the pair with the caption: “Happy anniversary Wayne Rooney 18 years.”
In a candid interview with Rio Ferdinand’s podcast, Wayne opened up about his past struggles with alcoholism, admitting he would have been “dead” if it weren’t for Coleen’s unwavering support. He revealed: “At 17, she could see my mind and she knew I was a bit out there… She’s kept me on the right path for over 20 years.”
The couple, childhood sweethearts from Liverpool, began dating at 16 and now share four sons: Kai, 16, Klay, 13, Kit, 10, and Cass, 8.
Fans are delighted to see the former footballer thriving both on and off the pitch, proving that behind every great man is a supportive partner helping him shine.
