Kai Rooney, 14, Goes Public with First Girlfriend in Sweet Social Media Post

Kai Rooney, the eldest son of football star Wayne Rooney and Coleen Rooney, has publicly confirmed his first romantic relationship. The 14-year-old took to social media to share a photo of his girlfriend with the caption 'I love you'.

The image, taken in Adeje, Spain, shows the teenager's girlfriend posing in a black crop top and white skirt against a sunset backdrop. A friend commented 'Lucky boy' on the post, to which Kai replied 'Muy cierta' – Spanish for 'so true'.

Kai, who is currently in Manchester United's academy system, has expressed ambitions to follow in his father's footsteps. In a recent interview, he said: 'In ten years hopefully I will be playing in the Premier League for Man United... that's where I see myself but I've got to make it happen with the hard work.'

Aside from football, Kai has also ventured into modelling. In 2023, he featured in a sportswear campaign for Puma, posing in back-to-school attire. Proud mother Coleen shared the images on Instagram with a black heart emoji.

Kai was born in 2009, a year after Wayne and Coleen's wedding. The couple have three other sons: Klay, 8, Kit Joseph, 7, and Cass Mac, 5. Coleen has previously stated that she does not plan to have more children, saying their family is complete.
