Coleen Rooney’s lavish 40th birthday party gets underway as guests arrive in style and a helicopter is seen landing at their £20M mansion


Coleen Rooney’s lavish 40th birthday party has got underway as guests arrived in style with a helicopter seen landing at their £20M mansion. 

The I’m A Celebrity star is set to throw a huge bash for her closest friends and family as she has an enormous white marquee put up in the 50-acre grounds of her home. 

Among the stars pulling up to the mansion for the bash on Friday were English former footballer Phil Jones and his wife Kaya Hall.  

TV personality Leanne Brown, who first rose to fame as one of the original cast members of Real Housewives of Cheshire back in 2015, also made an appearance. 

Meanwhile Irish former footballer Darron Gibson was joined by another attendee in a black car as he arrived, and Irish singer-songwriter Dermot Kennedy also stepped out. 

And it appears the star studded guests have began to arrive, with a helicopter spotted landing at Coleen and Wayne’s £20million Cheshire home.

In another snap, a glimpse of an outdoor marquee could be seen erected in the garden as people arrived in chauffeured cars. 

The incredibly lavish celebrations are reportedly set to include hundreds of bottles of champagne on ice, a world famous singer to entertain the VIP crowd as well as a strict phone ban. 

Wayne’s footballer pals, including Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes and Darren Fletcher, are all on the guest list for the huge bash, along with Coleen’s WAG pals such as Annie Kilner and Abbey Clancy.

Speaking to The Mirror, a friend of Coleen’s reportedly said she loves to party and will be up dancing during the celebrations.

‘Coleen parties like a good northern Lass,’ they said. ‘She’s a very normal girl at the end of the day – she just likes a good time and having fun. It will be epic.’ 

Elsewhere on Friday, Wayne and lookalike son Kai headed to the barbers in Cheshire ahead of the party. 

Wayne cut a casual figure as the barber got to work while Kai, 16, was seen arriving with takeaway food for the pair. 

The teen was dressed in a grey tracksuit which he teamed with chunky trainers and a £400 Louis Vuitton beanie.

While Coleen organised a surprise party for Wayne’s 40th in October last year, he has not returned the favour and steered clear from planning the party over fears of disappointing her. 

She said at the time: ‘He always uses the excuse of “it wouldn’t be good enough for you”. He’s not really a planner, so he’ll say “there’s no point in me doing it because you’d want to do it yourself”.’ 

A source told The Mirror: ‘[Coleen] wants to have a good time without anyone filming anything like Wayne falling on the dance floor or being drunk, It’s going be very high protection when it comes to this. It’s a private party. There’s no one that can party like Coleen’.

While its unclear who will be performing it has been claimed ‘no expense has been spared’ on the ‘Mariah Carey level singer’.

The source went on to say: ‘The guest list is obviously going to be A list and very football related. There’s going to be all of Wayne’s old teammates, the ex-Manchester United squad and everyone that’s played with Wayne, including David Beckham’.

‘[Wayne] wants Rio Ferdinand there, if he can get over from Dubai. There are a few players that might not be able to make it, but it is going to be full of people that have been there for them’. 

The Daily Mail have contacted Coleen and David Beckham’s reps for comment. 

Meanwhile fellow WAG and pal Tanya Bardsley, 44, showed off her new hair extensions ahead of the swanky bash.

She also posted a tribute to Coleen on her Instagram Stories which read: ‘Happy birthday to this gorgeous icon, can’t wait to celebrate with you later.’ 

Coleen reportedly has hundreds of bottles of champagne on ice for the bank holiday weekend marking her milestone day. 

Caterers and staff will keep the party running smoothly, with insiders saying no expense has been spared for Coleen.

An insider told The Sun: ‘Coleen loves a good knees-up. She can afford a lovely lifestyle and everything at the party will be classy and beautifully done. But for her, plenty of booze, good music and her family is all she will want. There’s going to be live music and you can guarantee Wayne will be getting up on the microphone. He loves to sing and will be keen to give everyone a tune or two.’ 

The Daily Mail have contacted Coleen’s representatives for comment. 

Ahead of the bash, Coleen said: ‘I’m looking forward to it, I love a birthday and a celebration.

‘I have decided to enjoy a couple of different celebrations with family and friends over the year, and with my birthday falling over Easter weekend, some friends are away — so any opportunity to extend the celebrations…’
