Wayne Rooney is coaching Plymouth while his family have remained up north

Coleen Rooney was left shocked by the state of husband Wayne Rooney when she came down to see him in Plymouth in a recent visit.

Coleen has stayed up north with her and Wayne's four sons Kai, Klay, Kit and Cass after the former England international took charge of Plymouth Argyle over the summer.


That is over 260 miles away from the Rooney's home in Cheshire, leaving the Manchester United legend largely on his own in Devon.

And after visiting, Coleen has put her husband on an immediate health plan after being left shocked by his condition.

Speaking to Heat magazine, a source said: "Coleen got a bit of a shock when she saw Wayne recently.

"She’s worried he’s not taking enough care of himself now that he’s living on his own.

"It was always going to be a big adjustment for him when he gave up playing football professionally.

"He was at the peak of his fitness during that time – Coleen made sure he ate healthily and he was always running about and playing footie with the boys.

"Now, she feels he’s not putting himself first, and worries that he’s struggling to cope without her looking after him."

It was further reported that Coleen put Wazza on a diet straight away, giving him a strict exercise regime to get him back shipshape.

Rooney and his family are planning a big trip away for his 39th birthday, on October 24.

And Coleen has given the former striker this date as a target to get himself in better condition.

The source added: "She’s decided to put him on a bit of a health and fitness kick ahead of his 39th birthday next month, as she wants him to look and feel his best when they go away for a few days to celebrate."

Rooney took charge of Plymouth on May 25 just months after getting the sack as Birmingham boss.
