COLEEN Rooney has revealed she and footie legend hubby Wayne enjoy secret date nights - in the annex of their mansion.
The Wag and incoming I’m A Celebrity campmate, 38, said they once hired a babysitter and snuck away from their kids for a break.
But she was rumbled by one of their four lads who quickly realised they were in the other wing of their £20million Cheshire pad.
Speaking on Fearne Cotton’s Happy Place podcast which was released today, Coleen said: “When we first moved into the house we live in now, we've got like an annex, so we got a babysitter in one night and we had the kids on this Life 360 app… where it's like you can detect on their devices.
“You can detect the older one if he was coming home from school, I know where the school bus is.
“And so we said, right, we're going out, see you later. But we never, we went to the annex because we couldn't be bothered.

“We just wanted the night to watch some TV.
“We got a takeaway and we got a ping of a message. And they were like, ‘Where are you?’
“And we're like, oh, we've gone out. Telling the little fib. And he went, no, you're not, you're over in the annex.
“I was thinking, you can't do anything without getting caught out. But even simple things like that, just to sit down and watch a bit of TV.”

In the chat, Coleen - who is the childhood sweetheart of Manchester United and England hero Wayne, 39 - also said their eldest son Kai once landed himself in hot water for prank-calling a schoolmate.
She said she told budding footballer Kai, now 15, to come clean to the teacher - who was impressed with his honesty.
Coleen said: “The teacher said, ‘I'm, you know, really impressed of how he's done that’.
“So that's always been my way of dealing with situations is, you know, truth is the best thing.”
Coleen also said she has left the Wagatha Christie legal battle with rival Becky Vardy behind her.
Asked only about the stress of “the court case”, Coleen said: “That was a really stressful time. And to be honest with you, like now I've put it all behind me. I've released that stress.
“And I think, you know, I just, I'm just looking forward to not dwelling on that.
“Again, going back to a support group, and that has always been my friends and family.
“I think, you know, if I didn't have them, maybe I might not have got through it, but I did.”
She went on: “And also as we went back at the beginning to, you know, telling the truth and carrying on and getting on with it, I think that was part of getting through all that stress and that time.
“But now I'm in a better place now.

And it's, yeah… it was difficult, but I mean, I'm much better, I'm more present.
“And that's where I feel like I've got more time to give, you know, to the children, more time to think about myself and also to go back to work and do projects, which is good.”
