Coleen Rooney left the jungle in second place to be reunited with her family last night after four weeks away and her husband Wayne, had some tear jerking words for her

I’m A Celebrity came to an end last night and while she didn’t win Queen of the Jungle, Coleen Rooney got something even better.

The WAG, 38, came in second place to McFly’s Danny Jones in the finale of the hit ITV show. While she said it was a shame she didn’t win the crown, her placing wasn’t a complete loss, as she was met with an adorable message from her husband, Wayne Rooney.

Coleen revealed in one of her first interviews since leaving the jungle that she spoke to Wayne, 39, after four weeks without communicating with him, and her long-time partner, who she has been with since she was 16, almost brought her to tears with his sweet words.

“He just said how much he missed me, how proud he was, and he said the support back home has been unbelievable,” she gushed. Coleen went on to adorably confess to Good Morning Britain : “He just can’t wait to see me, and I can’t wait to see him as well.”

Coleen and Wayne first met in 1998, becoming part of the same friendship group. Just a short 10 years later, they tied the knot in a luxury wedding in Portofino, Italy, that was estimated to have cost upwards of £5 million. The wedding featured performances by iconic bands Westlife and Stereophonics.

Throughout their lengthy marriage, the couple has welcomed four sons, Kai, 15, Klay, 11, Kit, eight, and Cass, six, with Coleen’s two youngest boys making the long trip to Australia to meet her as she left the jungle. Discussing why her two eldest boys didn’t come along, Coleen told the news outlet: “My two older boys have stayed at home because school is important at this age, and the two younger ones brought work away with them. I can’t wait to get home to the two older ones and Wayne, of course,” she added.

Speaking to the outlet, she also opened up about her fears when entering the show, explaining that it wasn’t sleeping outside or dealing with creepy crawlies but something completely unsuspecting: “It was karaoke and cooking. I don’t do karaoke, so why would I go on a show and think that I had to do it? I just enjoyed everyone else doing it,” she laughed.

Finalists Coleen, Reverend Richard, and Danny found out their fate last night. After Reverend Richard’s elimination, which saw him come third place, Coleen and Danny accumulated more than 10 million votes, proving it to be a popular final. However, ultimately, Danny came first, and Coleen came second.

Coleen said she was “gutted” that she wasn’t crowned Queen of the Jungle but knew her family would be excited for her regardless: “My boys have been proud of their dad for so long, it’s my turn now,” she said.

She also thanked fans for their support, explaining on the spin-off show Unpacked: “I think that people’s vote meant a lot. I have celebrated a lot of people in my life, so for people to celebrate me felt special.”

As for what’s next, she told GMB that the rumours of a “£1m telly deal” are news to her and said, “I’m looking forward to Christmas, and then in January, I will sit down with my team and see what I am going to do going forward.”
