Coleen Rooney plotting 'revenge' to silence doubters in new TV series with Wayne
After years in the background of Wayne Rooney's football career, Coleen Rooney is stepping into her own spotlight and she has her mind set on proving her doubters wrong.
Fresh off her success as runner-up on I'm A Celebrity, the 39-year-old mum-of-four is said to be more determined than ever to be recognised as more than just a footballer's wife. According to an insider, she's had enough of assumptions about staying with Wayne for financial reasons after his infidelities and addiction issues.
'She's sick of hearing that she would be nothing without Wayne or she only stays for the money. She's now a multimillionaire in her own right and she's not stopping there. This is just the start for Coleen and she can be very determined when she wants to be.'
Having turned down career opportunities while raising their four sons, Kai, Klay, Kit, and Cass, proud mum Coleen is reportedly now focused on building her own brand, and insiders say she was the driving force behind the couple's lucrative new deal with Disney+.
"She's the reason they got this big Disney deal,' the insider told The Sun. 'I'm A Celeb proved that she's just as big a star as Wayne. It's the ultimate revenge on her doubters.'
The couple's upcoming docuseries, created by the producers behind Coleen Rooney: The Real Wagatha Story, will offer rare insight into their home life with their four young sons. Cameras will follow Wayne, 39, as he trades football training for school runs, while Coleen continues her business ventures.
Speaking to The Mirror, a source revealed earlier this month: 'They could be bigger than not just the Beckhams, but the Kardashians.'
With Wayne recently dismissed from his managerial role at Plymouth Argyle and reportedly rejecting a lower-league job, the couple are reportedly seeing the series as a new chapter in both their personal lives and careers.
PR expert Dermot McNamara believes the show could reshape their public image, but not without challenges. 'This will be their biggest test yet,' he said.
'Even though they've been famous since they were teenagers, we haven't ever seen what their lives are really about. There's so much we don't know about them, like how they talk, how they parent. We're going to get a fresh perspective.'
Coleen's time on I'm A Celebrity showed glimpses of her resilience, but even still, questions about Wayne's scandals resurfaced as she was quizzed on her heartache by her fellow campmates.
'She let people in, but was still guarded,' Dermot said. 'Now we might finally see how she lives with all that public heartache.'
Despite the controversies, Coleen has built her own fortune with books, fashion, and fitness deals, and now, the Rooneys are ready to take control of their story with their brand-new show which has already been predicted as one of their biggest successes yet.
The Mirror has approached Coleen's representatives for comment on this story.

Brooklyn Beckham shows off his toned physique as he poses shirtless in the sauna - after taking inspiration from wife Nicola Peltz's racy bath snap
Brooklyn Beckham posed shirtless as he relaxed in the sauna in an Instagram post on Thursday - after seemingly taking inspiration from wife Nicola Peltz 's racy bath snap. The aspiring chef, 26, shared a photo capturing his downtime following a whirlwind few weeks of living it up with Nicola, 30. Looking to unwind, Brooklyn donned a pair of black shorts as he showed off his toned physique and impressive tattoo collection inside the steamy sauna. His post comes just a day after Nicola set pulses racing with a jaw-dropping naked snap, after enjoying a swanky lunch with her pal Elton John. The actress took to Instagram to share a gallery of snaps from her trip to St Tropez, and paid tribute to the music legend by using his collaboration with Dua Lipa, Cold Heart, as the song for his post. Nicola's post showed her seductively posing in a bath, along a gallery of snaps with her husband Brooklyn, who was quick in the comments that he took the snap. It comes hours after sources revealed that Elton invited Brooklyn and Nicola for lunch at a swanky Cannes eatery in a desperate attempt to calm the family's feud. The legendary musician, who has been friends with David, 50, and Victoria Beckham, 51, for over 30 years, treated Brooklyn and his wife Nicola at fancy La Guerite beach club in the South of France. The Beckham family have been at the centre of a feud that has pitted Brooklyn and his wife Nicola against the rest of the family. According to The Sun, Sir Elton 'briefly' spoke about the family's feud in the hope Brooklyn would patch things up with his parents. A source said: 'Elton of old may have relished in taking sides - in this case his young godson, Brooklyn - but two years off his 80th birthday, he's a man who has seen and done it all. He just wants everyone to be happy. 'There is no side-taking as such; he simply adores his godson, and really has a laugh with Nicola who he thinks has a great sense of humour. He wants to look after them in his role as 'spiritual adviser' as a godfather, it's a role he takes seriously. 'Elton and David think the situation is terribly sad, and has gently suggested to all involved that life is short - to patch things up.' The source added Elton is 'adamant he doesn't want to stick his nose in' the feud, he just simply 'wants peace'. MailOnline has contacted the Beckham's and Elton's representatives for comment. Nicola couldn't wipe the smile off her face during the lunch as she sipped on Aperol Spritz at the fancy beach club. Sir Elton is also said to have generously picked up the entire bill, after dining on the restaurant's signature lobster linguine which comes in at an eye-watering £190. David affectionately calls the musician 'Uncle Elton' after becoming friends in his football heyday. Sir Elton was due to perform at the Beckhams wedding in 1999 before suffering a heart attack that prevented him from playing. He later sang at one of the children's christenings. Meanwhile Victoria once disclosed that it was Elton who inspired her to say goodbye to the Spice Girls, penning an emotional letter to her older self where she confessed that watching her friend perform made her realise that her true calling lay beyond singing. It comes after Nicola doubled down on the family feud as she declared Brooklyn 'her everything' on Instagram last week during their luxury St Tropez trip. Nicola took to her Instagram Stories with snaps of the pair embracing during their sun-soaked getaway on board her billionaire father's yacht in St Tropez. The couple only had eyes for each other as she wrapped her arms around his neck while he pulled her in close. She wore a bikini top and skimpy white shorts while her husband shielded his eyes behind shades and a baseball cap and cheekily squeezed her bottom. Nicola captioned the post: 'My everything @BrooklynBeckhamPeltz' with Brooklyn later resharing it with his followers. Last week, it was revealed that Brooklyn and Nicola's Instagram accounts no longer follow his younger brothers Cruz, 20, and Romeo, 22, in the latest family drama. However, Brooklyn's friends told MailOnline on Friday that Cruz and Romeo have actually blocked them on the social media platform. This would make sense given that Brooklyn and Nicola are still following Victoria, 51 and David, 50. Cruz and Romeo were still following Brooklyn and Nicola earlier this month but appeared to take action after Brooklyn posted a birthday tribute to sister Harper, sharing a family photo without them in it – which Nicola reposted. There was much speculation whether Brooklyn would reach out to Harper on her 14th birthday on Thursday, but despite him doing so, it seems all is not well in the camp. Brooklyn's birthday tribute to Harper marked his first public interaction with his family since he paid tribute to his grandmother Sandra on June 26, despite remaining silent and shunning his father's 50th birthday earlier that same month. Sources close to the family have told MailOnline of their fears that Brooklyn and his wife Nicola have also distanced themselves from Harper after they failed to visit her when they flew into London in May to film an advert for French-Italian clothing brand Moncler just over a mile from the family home in Holland Park. David and Victoria had no idea whether Brooklyn, who Harper has idolised since she was a little girl, would message her privately or publicly on Instagram because they have no communication with him.

Luke Shaw is 'ready to QUIT' Man United after 11 years and is 'prepared' to hear offers from one destination
Luke Shaw is reportedly ready to leave Manchester United after 11 years. The left-back, 30, is aware that his game time will be squeezed with Diogo Dalot, Patrick Dorgu, and summer signing Diego Leon all jostling for minutes. Shaw still has two years left on his contract but, due to limited opportunities, is willing to listen to advances from Saudi Arabia, according to The Sun. Shaw has missed almost five years of his career due to injury troubles since joining the Red Devils. A horrific double leg break in 2015, which sidelined him for almost 10 months, was one of just 28 injuries he has suffered during his time at Old Trafford. Last season he was limited to just seven Premier League appearances, spending most of his time recovering from separate knee, calf, and muscle blows. As per The Sun, Ruben Amorim is not in a rush to get rid of Shaw, who earns £150,000 per week. He is a versatile and experienced player who filled in at centre-back during their Europa League final defeat by Tottenham in May. The former Southampton star won the competition with United back in 2017. With 388 outings under his belt for club and contry, the London-born star has plenty of wisdom to pass on to the next generation of stars. But even if he does not leave this summer there is the possibility of him going in January. He admitted in May that he and his team-mates must question whether they are good enough to wear the shirt after their most dire season in recent memory, which saw them finish 15th in the Premier League. 'We're very sorry for what they have had to go through this season. Like I said, it's been nowhere near good enough, and I can only apologise for that,' Shaw told BBC Sport. 'It hurts a lot. This season has not been good enough. Us as players, we have to question if we're good enough for Man United because this season is not acceptable. 'Where we are in the league, the results we've had, it's not acceptable for a club like Manchester United that has won multiple trophies and always been one of the biggest teams in the world. 'After results like this [against Tottenham], the season we've had, we have to question ourselves. It's about where we go from here. Ruben for sure has a plan. He knows exactly what's needed at this club. He'll turn it around.' It is foreboding that £3.3million signing Leon from Paraguayan club Cerro Porteno impressed Amorim on his debut. The 18-year-old played the first half of their -0-0 draw with Leeds and the manager said: 'He did really well. He's learning things, he's powerful, he's going to be a very good player.' All the same, Shaw did also feature against Leeds and is in their squad for their tour of the USA, where they meet West Ham on Sunday.

Cancelled movie star says Hollywood is sick of losing money on 'woke' films as industry set to change under Trump
Kevin Sorbo claims Hollywood is shifting its values after growing sick of losing money on ' woke ' films. The self-proclaimed 'first cancel culture victim' revealed that studios are now reaching out to him, after years of being rejected over his conservative Christian values. The actor, 66, rose to international fame as the Greek demigod Hercules in the hit show 'Hercules: The Legendary Journeys,' which ran for six seasons from 1995 to 1999. Sorbo said that he sees a shift happening within the movie industry under president Donald Trump, in a new interview with Fox News Digital. 'I think people are tired of it, and Hollywood's tired of losing money, like they're going to lose another $300 million on this woke Disney movie with "Snow White."' 'I think the American people are fed up, and I think they showed it in the last election as well. They said enough is enough of this stuff.'
