Coleen Rooney reveals final Wayne phonecall before I'm A Celebrity - and it's so unromantic
by Mark Jefferies · Irish MirrorColeen Rooney has revealed details of the final call she had with husband Wayne before she had to surrender her phone ahead of her I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! stint.
The 38-year-old mum-of-four has been married to football ace Wayne, 39, since 2008 and they share sons Kai, 15, Klay, 11, Kit, eight, and Cass, six. The proud mum made sure she spoke to her boys before she hopped on her flight to Australia earlier this week ahead of her I'm A Celeb appearance and then had a final chat with Wayne once she landed.
While the couple have been together through thick and thin - with their marriage surviving after being rocked by multiple infidelity allegations - their final call was very straightforward, according to Coleen. Speaking to The Mirror, she said: "My phone got taken off me when we landed. Like, when I came out of the airport."

The mum will be seen heading into the jungle on ITV tonight, and revealed she used her last call before isolating to ring up her husband of more than 15 years.
"My last call was to Wayne, the kids were at school, so I’d already pre-spoken to them knowing that when I landed, they would have been at school. I just checked on everything. And then before that I spoke to my mum because she’s looking after the kids as well as Wayne. So it was just good luck and I just wanted to see if the kids got off to school ok."
Going on to say she is missing being able to check in with her family, the WAG added: "Not having that contact, I’d say up until now, has been the biggest thing. You get used to having your phone and speaking to people all the time, you feel a bit secluded from the world."
Fans will see Coleen reunite with some of her sons when it comes time for her to exit the I'm A Celeb jungle. However, while she revealed that Kit and Cass will be waiting to hug her at the other end of the jungle bridge, Kai and Klay will be back home in the UK. She explained: "They all had the option but the two older ones decided that they would stay at home to continue with school and football. I think I said when you come you’ll have to bring your work with you, and they would be missing some football tournaments, so they quickly changed their minds!
"And also the fact that they don’t know when they get to see me. That was another big thing, is if I did last and stayed in close to the end, there’s not going to be any time spent with me so I explained that. Obviously, I would have liked them all to come out but it makes sense in a way and they both chose a wise decision not to miss out on anything back home and as soon as the show’s over, I’m back straight away."
