Coleen Rooney appeared delighted while out and about as news of her footballer husband Wayne’s return to English football broke.
The 37-year-old WAG giggled as she met up with a friend in Cheshire on Wednesday dressed in comfortable gym clothing.
Opting for a fresh-faced no makeup look, Coleen went on a walk in some black gym legging which she tucked into some grey and black ankle socks.
The mum of four kept herself warm in a dark green half-zip fleece and carried a bottle of water under on arm to ensure she was hydrated.
Tying her long raven hair back from her face into a messy low ponytail, the star accessorised with a simple gold chain necklace and some diamond earrings.
In her hands, she gripped her mobile phone and a busy keyring that featured her fob for a Mercedes car.

Coleen’s autumn stroll came as it as announced Wayne would be signing on to lead Birmingham City football club as their new manager.
The former England skipper signed a three-and-a-half-year contract at St Andrew’s and will be joined by ex-England team-mate Ashley Cole – currently England Under-21s assistant coach – and John O’Shea, the assistant coach of the Republic of Ireland.
Wayne replaced John Eustace who was sacked on Monday, following which he told the club’s website: ‘I am absolutely delighted to be joining Birmingham City at such an exciting time. It is very clear that they have a plan and are committed to realising their ambition for the club.
‘We are fully aligned on what is expected. I have been building my managerial career, putting myself in challenging environments, to get me ready for this opportunity.
‘It’s a project that gives me a sense of purpose and I can’t wait to get started.’
Birmingham co-owner and chairman Tom Wagner said: ‘Wayne is a born winner. We believe, with the support of his coaching staff, the club, and our supporters, he will take Blues forward on the next stage of our journey.
