Drink-drive footie ace Wayne Rooney gives wife Coleen an ultimatum ‘you quit the holidays and I’ll quit the boozing’
TROUBLED Wayne Rooney has vowed to rein in his boozy nights out — if wife Coleen cuts back on her holidays.
The 31-year-old ex-England skipper, arrested on a drink-drive rap last week, issued his promise in a bid to save their marriage.
But he is also said to have asked Coleen, 31, for changes.
A source said: “He’s pointed the finger at her over the number of holidays she takes and she raised questions about his nights out with the lads.”
The footballer accused his wife of taking too many holidays - racking up ten in the past year.
The Sun revealed yesterday that Coleen has decided to give her footballer husband “one more chance” after his drink-drive arrest in a single mum’s VW.
But it is understood both sides raised issues, with Coleen urging Wayne to cut down on his regular boozy nights out with mates and him asking her to reduce her air miles.
Coleen, 31, pregnant with the couple’s fourth child, is famed for her jet-setting lifestyle.
She is a fan of Barbados, but has also enjoyed recent trips to Madrid, Majorca, Amsterdam and Portugal on top of family hols in Lake Como, Ibiza, Las Vegas and Mykonos.
She was in Majorca with sons Kai, seven, Klay, four, and Kit, one, as Everton ace Wayne was arrested a week ago — and flew home to confront him.
A source said: “Coleen’s still furious with Wayne and is threatening all sorts. Wayne’s just hoping she’ll calm down.
“He’s told her he is willing to stop going out if that means she will stay with him. But he hasn’t totally held back himself.
“He’s pointed the finger at Coleen over the number of holidays she takes and she’s raised questions about his nights out.
“In the end it’ll need some give-and-take on both sides to get everything back to normal.”
WAYNE'S OWN GOALS From prostitutes to a granny, these are Wayne Rooney’s 'other women'... and the scandals which have rocked his marriage to Coleen
Another pal claimed ex-England skipper Wayne, who wed Coleen nine years ago, has already agreed to wind down his boozing after drink played a part in a string of mishaps.
They said: “Everyone knows what Wayne’s like when he’s ‘on it’ and drink has been involved each time he’s made a mistake.”
Wayne, 31, was wearing his wedding ring as he attended Everton training yesterday before returning to his £4million home in Prestbury, Cheshire.
He will face court on September 18 after cops found him allegedly over the limit at the wheel of 29-year-old office worker Laura Simpson’s VW Beetle.
Meanwhile proud mum Coleen tweeted a snap of Kai ahead of his first day at grammar school.
A representative for the couple declined to comment yesterday.
