Wayne Rooney's mischievous Premier League title celebrations have been met with a brilliantly sarcastic retort from his wife, Coleen, proving their relationship is still full of the playful banter fans adore.
The former England captain, a famously devoted Evertonian, sent social media into a frenzy after he was photographed proudly displaying Liverpool flags on his garden fence to mark their championship victory. In a jest that stunned many, he even quipped that he had 'locked the wife in the house' as part of the festivities.
Never one to be outdone, Coleen swiftly took to her own Instagram account to deliver the perfect punchline. Sharing the same image of her husband's red-adorned property, she simply captioned it: 'Happy wife happy life… so they say.'
The witty comeback sent her followers into stitches, with the post quickly amassing thousands of likes and comments praising her hilarious clapback.
Wayne, who spent much of his career as a fierce rival of Liverpool during his time at Manchester United, has always been open about his true blue Everton allegiance. His recent antics are a clear sign of his good humour and the couple's ability to not take themselves too seriously.
The Rooneys, married since 2008, are well-known for their down-to-earth and often humorous relationship, frequently sharing glimpses of their family life and teasing each other online. This latest exchange has certainly cemented their status as one of football's most entertaining couples.
