Coleen and Wayne Roone<\/a>y\u2019s family life has been put on display like never before in their new docu-series and at one point, she even considered leaving him.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Real Rooneys series gives an intimate look inside their life and at one point she admits she considered \u201cseparating\u201d from her \u201ccareless\u201d husband after some heated rows during filming.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Coleen and Wayne Rooney give the most intimate look of their life yet in the new Disney+ series The Real Rooneys.\u00a0Disney+<\/p>\n

The couple, both aged 40, share four boys, Kai, 16, Klay, 13, Kit, 10, and Cass, eight, who feature heavily in the fly-on-the-wall show about their life on Disney+, which was filmed last year.\u00a0<\/p>\n

From the outside, they appear to be a happy family, but it\u2019s quickly revealed that it\u2019s not always the case.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are times when I think the answer to everything is to see what it’s like if we are separated,\u201d Coleen candidly said in an interview with the camera after a clash with Wayne on holiday.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Wayne, a former England footballing great, and Coleen, who has appeared on I\u2019m A Celebrity along with the publicity that surrounded her in the \u2018Wagatha Christie\u2019 scandal<\/a>, haven\u2019t shied away from sharing the reality of their marriage during the show.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWe haven\u2019t spoke for four days, this is the first time we\u2019ve talked,\u201d Wayne told the cameras at one point as they sat down on the couch together to film.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Coleen replied, \u201cI\u2019m hoping a break will help us to reconnect. A really nice weekend away for us to have some time together. That\u2019s if I don\u2019t kill him first.\u201d<\/p>\n

But it seems like the weekend away to reconnect was just wishful thinking.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The trip to Scotland reportedly turned to a nightmare when Wayne opted to spend the morning golfing with mates and left her to wait for a few hours.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Coleen hoped a holiday would help them reconnect, it didn\u2019t quite pan out that way. \u00a0Disney+<\/p>\n

Chaos is a clear theme in the family, judging by the trailer with plenty of clips of the boys wrestling, boxing and pushing both of their parents to the limit.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The show will no doubt give a look into their family life like no other, from Coleen\u2019s return to work to Wayne juggling life as a dad away from professional sport.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cNo one knows the real Rooneys, this is the side of us we\u2019ve never showed before,\u201d Coleen said at one point of the official show trailer.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The 10-part docu-series will drop on September 24 on Disney+, following their life in their new super mansion in Cheshire in the UK.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Coleen explained that during filming, they threw everything at it and really \u201ccommitted\u201d to the experience.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Nothing was off limits for the couple, who really \u201ccommitted\u201d to the filming process of the show. \u00a0WireImage<\/p>\n

\u201cObviously it\u2019s reality show, so we want to show the good moments and the bad moments. It wasn\u2019t planned, especially with kids, things can happen!\u201d she told the Daily Mail.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWe didn’t want to sign up for it and, and say right, ‘we’ll film this but not film that,’ you can’t pick the moments that you like the best.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

She explained that the only filming exceptions were around their children, who could decide when they didn\u2019t want to be on camera.<\/p>\n
