Coleen Rooney has opened up about her body image in an honest new interview as rumours swirl she’s set to star in a reality TV series.
Coleen, 38, has been in the public eye for decades as the wife of footballer Wayne Rooney.
The star was pushed further into the limelight in 2019 with the ‘Wagatha Christie’ accusations and court case against Rebekah Vardy and a subsequent Disney+ series about the trial which aired in 2023.
The star released a book in November 2023 and has spent the last year focusing on her career and family life.
The star chatted with Metro ahead of her rumoured appearance in ITV’s I’m A Celebrity, and opened up about her children, relationship, and body image as she revealed there are things she’s had to accept she cannot change with her looks.
‘Growing up there were things that I wished I had. I would have liked longer legs!
‘But as I’ve got older I’ve accepted that’s not going to happen, therefore I make the most out of those areas – whether that be by working out on those areas, or dressing for your body proportions,’ she said.

She reflected that she prefers to dress in a way that compliments her figure and waist.
‘I wouldn’t say I have problem areas, there are areas of my body that put weight on quickly if I’m not sticking to my fitness routine.
‘My lower stomach is one of them and always has been. I have a small-ish waist, so I tend to go for clothes that emphasise that area.’
She also revealed that she doesn’t feel the pressure to look perfect as she’s in the public eye because she’s never tried to look ‘perfect’.
‘I haven’t ever tried to look perfect. I have just tried to feel good about myself. As I have got older I have learnt what works for me.’

The star has faced a change in the pace of family life as her husband Wayne has moved to Plymouth, Devon after accepting a new role as Plymouth Argyle manager in May 2024.
Rather than pulling their four children out of school, the couple decided that Coleen and their four children would remain in Cheshire in their £20million mansion, while Wayne spends time between the two locations.
When asked about maintaining a long-distance relationship, Coleen revealed technology is a key asset.
‘We get to see Wayne once or twice a week depending on his schedule and fixtures. There is lots of FaceTime, especially in the morning when we are trying to get out of the door!’
The star admitted it can be hard to find time for herself, as she detailed her ‘hectic’ schedule.
‘I get up early to prepare everything ahead …read more
