Coleen Rooney broke down in tears as she reflected on her jungle journey on Sunday night’s finale of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!
The mother-of-four, 38, admitted she was ‘so proud of herself’ that she made it to the final three in the Bush Telegraph.
Sticking with her usual humble approach, Coleen said it is ‘very rare’ that she puts herself first and so is proud she made it through the last three weeks.
She said: ‘Knowing that I have made it to the final makes me proud. I’m a proud mum, I’m a proud wife, I’m a proud daughter, it’s very rare that I’m proud of myself, so it means a lot.
‘It’s very rare that I put myself first, so yeah these are happy tears!’
Fans will find out if Coleen, Reverend Richard Coles and Danny Jones will be crowned King or Queen Of The Jungle later in the episode.

‘No matter what you’ll be our queen, no matter what happens we’re all really excited to see you. All the best, we love you.’
And this is not the first time Wayne has shown full support for his wife as he previously sent an emotional message to his wife Coleen during the letters from home segment of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!
He said he’s never missed her so much in his life as she spends weeks in Australia away from him.

One of the children said: ‘One thing I’m not missing is you shouting at me to get up in the morning, we might need to work on that!’ adding ‘I’m so proud to call you my mum.’
Wayne then said: ‘Coleen, I have never missed you so much in my life.
‘You’re doing amazing and showing everyone your character of what a wonderful, humble woman you are. I’m so proud of you, and can’t wait to see you. I love you ten, Wayne.’

The episode saw the stars trying to win their letters from home by guessing special words and phrases from their loved ones.
Coleen successfully won with her guess after Wayne had chosen ‘petrol station’, explaining its significance to her campmates was because it was where he had proposed to her.
She later opened up on the moment, explaining how Wayne has surprised her after she had changed her mind about going to a restaurant.
She said: ‘I knew it was gonna happen but I definitely didn’t know it was gonna be in a petrol station, but I’m glad we didn’t do it in a restaurant to be honest with you.’
And revealing the extravagant and romantic way the couple had celebrated their engagement, Coleen added: ‘We were only young, so we went back and had corned beef hash instead!’
The mother-of-four previously recalled how Wayne had proposed in her autobiography My Account: The Official Autobiography, released in November last year.
She explained how they had been heading to a Chinese restaurant, where the England player had planned to get down on one knee, but had begun bickering.
She wrote: ‘I can’t even remember what now, but whatever it was must have put me in a bit of a mood.

Wayne then said: ‘Coleen, I have never missed you so much in my life. ‘You’re doing amazing and showing everyone your character of what a wonderful, humble woman you are’
‘As we pulled in at a petrol station, I folded my arms and sighed. ‘Do you know? I don’t really feel like going for something to eat now.’
”No neither do I,’ Wayne said, turning off the car engine. ‘Only, the thing is, while we were there, I was going to do this…’
‘Before I knew it, I had an emerald-cut diamond ring on my finger, and I rang mum mum and dad to tell them our big news. Little did I know, he’d already asked my dad’s permission, so they knew it was coming.’
Acknowledging that it had not been ‘the most romantic of proposals’, Coleen admitted: ‘It’s not the image a girl conjures up when she thinks about a marriage proposal, as a rule.’
It comes after Coleen opened up on how she still gets branded a ‘WAG’, as she offered rare insight into her home life.
Wayne and Coleen have four sons together. The couple exchanged vows in Portofino, Italy, in June 2008.
The pair, who were both 22 at the time, spared no expense when it came to their wedding, with their incredible day believed to have cost a cool £5m.
Coleen will battle it out against Danny Jones and Richard Coles on Sunday to be crowned the new King or Queen of the jungle after Sam Thompson secured his royal place last year.
