'Don't humiliate me' - Wayne Rooney given 'clear set of rules' by wife Coleen ahead of I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here stint that will put Plymouth boss 'under a spotlight'

Coleen is currently preparing to jet out to Australia for a stint in the jungle as part of the popular I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here television show. Before flying out, Coleen is said to have given husband Wayne a strict set of instruction for him to follow while she is on the other side of the world, according to OK! Magazine. The top warning Rooney has been given is to "not humiliate" his wife. Coleen is well aware her husband will be under even more intense scrutiny while she is on the show and is eager to avoid any unnecessary controversy.

A source told the magazine: "Coleen is very, very savvy and she knows that her going into the jungle will put them both under a spotlight. People will be watching everything she says and does and she knows it’ll be the same for Wayne so she wants to make sure everything goes smoothly. She doesn’t want to come out of the jungle and see that Wayne has done something silly and be humiliated. She’s given him clear rules and told him ‘the boys need you, don’t mess up, don’t humiliate me’. He’s not allowed to go out partying or drinking when he’s at home or in Plymouth, and when he finishes work at the football club he has to drive straight home to Cheshire and be at home with the boys.”

The Manchester United legend has also been told he must attend all of their children's school activities and clubs while his wife is away. Coleen's parents are set to look after the couple's four sons, Kai, Klay, Kit and Cass, during the week but Rooney will be expected to help out when he's not working. The new series of I'm a Celebrity is due to start broadcasting on November 17, with Coleen widely reported to be banking a whopping £1.5 million - the biggest paycheque in the history of the show - after agreeing to take part.

While Coleen is packing her bags for Australia, Rooney is currently preparing to take on former team Derby County in the Championship. Plymouth head to Pride Park on Saturday after a morale-boosting midweek win over bottom side Portsmouth.
