Coleen Rooney celebrated her 40th birthday on Friday, with her husband Wayne marking the occasion by sharing a series of nostalgic throwback photos in a touching tribute to her special day. The footballer, who also recently turned 40, praised the WAG as the "best wife and mum" while uploading a carousel of images to his Instagram, including snapshots of Coleen in bikinis and family moments.
Lavish Celebrations Planned at Cheshire Mansion
The couple is set to host an extravagant party for Coleen at their £20 million mansion this weekend, with preparations already in full swing. An enormous white marquee has been spotted in the garden of their 50-acre Cheshire estate, signaling the scale of the upcoming festivities. Coleen will welcome her closest friends and family for what insiders describe as a "beautiful and boozy" celebration, with hundreds of bottles of champagne reportedly on ice for the bank holiday weekend.
Guest List Features Football Legends and WAG Pals
The guest list for the birthday bash is expected to be star-studded and heavily football-oriented. Wayne's former teammates, including Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes, Darren Fletcher, and even David Beckham, are all invited. Coleen's WAG friends, such as Annie Kilner and Abbey Clancy, will also be in attendance to help her ring in this milestone birthday.
Wayne's Instagram tribute featured a heartfelt caption alongside the family photos: "Happy 40th Birthday to the best wife and mum we could wish for. We can’t wait to celebrate with you and love you all the world." The photos spanned from the early days of their relationship to more recent outings, including moments at Wimbledon and an Oasis concert.
No Expense Spared for the Festivities
Insiders reveal that no expense has been spared for Coleen's birthday celebration. Caterers and staff will ensure the party runs smoothly, with live music planned and Wayne likely to take the microphone for a song or two. A source commented, "Coleen loves a good knees-up. She can afford a lovely lifestyle and everything at the party will be classy and beautifully done. But for her, plenty of booze, good music, and her family is all she will want."
Originally, the couple considered traveling to Barbados for the occasion, but Coleen opted for a grand home celebration instead. Ahead of the bash, Coleen expressed her excitement, saying, "I'm looking forward to it, I love a birthday and a celebration. I have decided to enjoy a couple of different celebrations with family and friends over the year, and with my birthday falling over Easter weekend, some friends are away — so any opportunity to extend the celebrations…"
