    WAYNE WANTS A ‘FRESH START’ SAYS SOURCE

    Sources told The Sun he wanted a “fresh start” and “knows losing his unhealthy relationship with the bottle would be the best thing”.

    Rooney, dad to Kai, 11, Klay, eight, Kit, five, and Cass, three, has been in the dog house with Coleen for a series of drunken scandals.

    In 2017, he was driving Laura Simpson home when he was nicked for drink-driving at 2am after a ten-hour booze session.

    In 2019, the then-DC United player was arrested for being drunk in public when he set off a security door alarm at a US airport after a booze and sleeping pill mix left him “disoriented”.

    FRIEND SAID ROONEY HAD FUN WITH GIRLS AND TWO FRIENDS – AND THERE WAS ‘NO SEXUAL CONTACT’

    Rooney is then understood to have been with two other friends when he went to the girls’ £60-a-night hotel room.

    There the group spent a few hours having “a fun night” – but there was “no sexual contact”, a pal said.

    Instead, the girls played pranks on the retired England striker – then posted about them on social media.

    IS WAYNE AND COLEEN’S RELATIONSHIP IN TROUBLE?

    Although Coleen and Wayne swapped loving messages to mark their 13th wedding anniversary in June 2021, it hasn’t always been smooth sailing for the couple.

    Back in August 2019, the married former England ace, 35, was pictured laughing and joking with a mystery brunette — dressed in a skimpy white top and high heels — at the end of the mammoth booze-up.

    His wild night out with team-mates included visits to two clubs, chatting with three girls and jumping into a jacuzzi at a pal’s flat.

    Coleen flew to the US the following day, reportedly demanding that the star tear up his footie contract and come home early.

    On February 18, 2019, The Sun also exclusively revealed that Wayne Rooney had told friends he would be “devastated” if Coleen leaves but also “relieved” as they are both so unhappy.

    LIFE’S A BEACH

    Coleen Rooney enjoyed an afternoon at the beach with her kids today amid the drama over husband Wayne’s party girl pictures.

    The 35-year-old was snapped wearing a striped bikini and denim playsuit on the sand in Pwllheli, North Wales.

    She has refused to cut short her holiday with their four sons while the pictures continue circulating the web.

    A source said: “Coleen is fully behind him. She feels he’s been the victim of a stitch-up.

    “She has spoken to him and is entirely backing his version of events. They are rock solid.”

    WAYNE ROONEY DRAMATIC VICTORY IN FIRST MATCH AFTER PARTY GIRL SCANDAL

    WAYNE ROONEY remains Derby County manager and took charge of the Rams' victory over Real Betis.

    But the under-fire England legend has been read the riot act by club chiefs after his boozy antics at the weekend.

    Rooney's side put in an impressive performance to win 1-0 over the LaLiga side at Pride Park – thanks to a Max Bird strike four minutes from time.

    Rams boss Roo's £4.5million-a-year job was on a knife edge after the father-of-four was pictured passed-out and surrounded by semi-naked girls in a Manchester hotel room.

    The pictures of Rooney, 35, went viral, to the fury of Rams owner Mel Morris and his board, who are currently trying to attract new potential buyers to the ailing Championship club.

    Derby's top brass had imposed a zero-tolerance policy to restore the Rams' battered public image after star players Tom Lawrence and Mason Bennett were convicted over a drink-drive smash in 2018.

    The 2012 X Factor winner claims he was duped by a couple of women in his early days of fame, saying they only wanted to be with him because of his status.

    James told how he went on a date with one girl and saw paparazzi photos of them together in the media the following day.

    He said: “I think I might have been honey-trapped a couple of times by certain ladies.

    “I went on a date — I won’t name the girl — but I went on a date with a girl who was in the public eye at one point.

    “There was a lot of photos of us the next day and it all seemed like . . . it all felt a little bit set up.”

    He added on the Slacker podcast: “It all felt a little bit like I had been . . . I don’t know if it’s called ­honey-d***ed or honey-trapped.”

    “It’s upset them all. They’re in tears. She’s a good girl and comes from a decent family.

    “They thought they were being funny but I’ve told them it was absolutely stupid. I feel awful for them but I’m also angry because they’ve been stupid.

    MORE ON WAYNE ROONEY’S PIC DEAL WITH PARTY GIRLS

    The deal with the other three means Wayne can now try to stop future publication of the viral images as he owns the copyright.

    His people claimed the girls “volunteered” to hand the photos over and made a written apology for the “embarrassment” caused, the Mirror reports.

    A statement said: “These were three decent young women who went for a night out. They did not expect Wayne to end up in their company and are remorseful about how things turned out with the pictures.

    “They got carried away and did something they later regretted. They did not expect it to end up in the mainstream media after it was posted on social media and they decided to take steps to put things right.”
