<p>Ex-England captain Rooney was left watching on from afar when his <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/no-longer-just-wayne-rooney-wife-im-a-celebrity-star-coleen-tipped-earn-40m-tv-contracts-book-deals-netflix-documentary/bltb540c442713d0797" target="_blank">long-time partner headed to Australia</a> for a challenge that took the mum of four a long way outside of her comfort zone. Coleen ended up <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/coleen-rooney-1m-tv-deal-lucrative-offers-flood-in-seven-figure-fee-im-a-celebrity-get-me-out-of-here-wayne-earning-power-matched/blt573557ed94b59c76" target="_blank">securing a runner-up finish on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here</a> and was joined Down Under by her mother and two of her children.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Wayne had to <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/why-coleen-rooney-banned-wayne-im-a-celebrity-jungle-trip-man-utd-legend-could-get-cover-games-miss-plymouth-boss/blt7d916c4777a7909f" target="_blank">stay behind in the UK</a> as he is committed to a Championship coaching post at Plymouth.

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>In a bid to turn fortunes around, Rooney has been spending as much time as possible working on tactical plans and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/wayne-rooney-ignores-sack-threat-identify-transfer-targets-plymouth-boss-revealing-plans-january-window/blt2c7f5c4b1a72995d" target="_blank">identifying targets for the January transfer window</a>. He has, however, found time in his schedule to head back to Manchester and enjoy a festive evening out with Coleen.</p><picture><source srcset="https://assets.goal.com/images/v3/bltddef3c019bc60bca/coleen%20wayne%20xmas.jpg?format=webp" type="image/webp"><source srcset="https://assets.goal.com/images/v3/bltddef3c019bc60bca/coleen%20wayne%20xmas.jpg?format=jpg" type="image/jpeg"><img src="https://assets.goal.com/images/v3/bltddef3c019bc60bca/coleen%20wayne%20xmas.jpg?format=jpg" alt="Coleen Wayne Rooney Manchester Christmas" data-source="Instagram" data-copyright="Instagram" data-portal-copyright="Instagram" perform:prop="uuid:bltddef3c019bc60bca;width:463;height:691"></picture>
