Coleen admitted that she gets nervous before Wayne’s games as manager
Wayne Rooney, 39, took over as the head coach at Plymouth Argyle Football Club in May.

Discussing the move on I’m A Celebrity, Danny asked: “Is he loving managing?”

Coleen Rooney, 38, responded: “Yeah, he does enjoy it, it’s hard though. I find it more nerve wracking him being a manager than I did… I feel more pressure.”

Former boxer Barry McGuigan said of Wayne: “Well, he was very mature very quickly wasn’t he, he grew up very quickly?”

Coleen replied: “Well, I don’t know about that!” – leaving the shocked campmates in hysterics.

Wayne has admitted to a string of infidelities since they first met as teens in their home city of Liverpool.

But despite the ups and downs of their 16-year marriage — and him spending long ­periods away from home in his new job — she says they remain as strong as ever.

She told former Strictly dancer Oti Mabuse in camp: “All he wanted to do was play football. He struggled with the fame side of it, he hated that.

“If he could’ve just played football and had none of the fame, I think he would’ve been happier within life.

“He’s made mistakes along the way, but from 16, obviously you’re going to, that’s life.

But fans were in hysterics at Coleen’s candid admission as they took to X – formerly known as Twitter.

One wrote: “Coleen explaining how she gets nervous for Wayne’s games as manager..”

“Coleen talk about anything other than Wayne challenge,” sarcastically noted a second viewer.

As a third added: “Wayne hearing Coleen say he didn’t mature quickly,” along with a laughing emoji.
