I’m A Celeb star Coleen Rooney’s sons have been missing their mum terribly, as Wag’s family arrive in Australia
TWO of I’m A Celebrity contestant Coleen Rooney’s four sons have landed in Australia — and have been missing their mum terribly, according to their gran.
Coleen’s mum Colette McLoughlin, 62, said one of the lads had been really down in the dumps without their mother around — but did not say which one.
She added: “One of them’s been really quiet and subdued. They’ve been really good, to tell you the truth. I think it’s because they’ve been able to see her (on TV).
“If they hadn’t been able to see her, it would’ve been different. Not much longer now.”
Colette arrived at Brisbane Airport with eight-year-old Kit and Cass, six.
They are expected to be part of an emotional special episode when campmates will be reunited with friends and family.
Coleen, 38, and footie manager hubby Wayne, 39, are also parents to Kai, 15, and 11-year-old Klay.
Meanwhile, Colette has praised her daughter’s sleuthing skills.
Coleen earned the nickname Wagatha Christie after a 2019 social media post accusing her rival and Sun jungle columnist Rebekah Vardy of leaking stories to the press.
And she has continued to put her detective skills to good use in the jungle by rumbling the Jungle Junkyard fibs being peddled by Maura Higgins and Rev Richard Coles.
They had been living in luxury in a separate camp — but pretending to the other contestants that they were slumming it.
Coleen figured out the deception after believing Maura and Rev Richard looked too content.
Colette said: “I’m not surprised at all. She’d figure anything out, yeah.”
She also said she had been following Coleen’s rules on how to look after the boys while she is away.
Before leaving for Australia, Coleen left two whiteboards filled with instructions.
They resembled the football tactics-style boards that Wayne would use as boss of Plymouth Argyle.
Colette said she would have got into trouble with Coleen for not following the strict rules her daughter had laid out.
She said: “Oh, the whiteboard. I followed the whiteboard, all right.”
And she added: “I’m glad to see the back of the whiteboard!”
