I’m A Celebrity’s Coleen Rooney’s rules for husband Wayne as she flies to Australia
Those close to Coleen told me her family were on red alert to make sure nothing back home could derail her experience in camp
AS she prepares to fly Down Under this weekend ahead of her stint in I’m A Celebrity, Coleen Rooney has been busy sorting her to-do list.
And, according to pals, one of the most pressing matters is sorting out who is going to be keeping an eye on her husband Wayne.

The former England star, who is the boss of Plymouth Argyle football club, is famed for getting himself into hot water while Coleen’s back is turned.
And those close to Coleen told me her family were on red alert to make sure nothing back home could derail her experience in camp.
A pal said: “Everyone close to Coleen is very aware of what has gone on in the past, and will be staying in close contact with Wayne while she’s away.
“His football schedule means he can’t fly out to join her so he’ll be watching it from Plymouth.

“The family want nothing to spoil Coleen’s experience on the show and they’re making it their business to ensure it can’t.
“Everyone will be checking in on Wayne and, as a family, they’ll be cheering her on to the final.”
Given this is Coleen’s first foray into reality television, I have no doubt she will be crowned Queen of the Jungle this year, given the fascination that surrounds her.
But if I were her, I’d have a permanent minder glued to Wayne’s side.

IT’S NOT FAIR: LILY OUT OF IT AT OWN PARTY
LILY ALLEN can’t remember one of the most raucous parties she ever hosted – because she was out cold for the entire thing.

Speaking on her Miss Me podcast, Lily explained: “Quite often people have thrown house parties in my house against my will and also while I’ve not been conscious.
“After the Glamour Awards when I got carried out in a ‘K-hole’, I woke the next morning and like everyone famous was in my house, passed out.
“James Corden, Noel Fielding, Klaxons, Dominic Cooper, Mark Ronson, Alan Carr – everybody was there.
“Someone put me in a cab, drove me home and I got straight into bed.
