Tuesday November 03 2009
Less than 24 hours after giving birth to baby Kai, Coleen Rooney today left hospital with her newborn son.
Accompanied by proud dad Wayne, the Rooney clan left Liverpool Women’s Hospital, and headed for home.
And there were smiles all round when Wayne and Coleen emerged from hospital at around 10am this morning.
Coleen gave birth to Kai Wayne at 2.20pm yesterday.
The couple were said to be “thrilled with the wonderful addition to their family life”.
Coleen looked in fine fettle as she, Wayne and Kai Wayne were whisked away in a silver people carrier driven by Wayne's father, also Wayne.
Cowboy
Coleen’s mother, Colette, beamed with joy as she left the hospital with her new grandson.
Coleen wore a black and beige top with a black blazer and black trousers, while Wayne (24) was wearing a cowboy shirt, jeans and a sleeveless black puffer jacket.
The couple thanked staff as Wayne's father opened the car boot, which was full of flowers and balloons from well-wishers.
Photographers had been gathered at the hospital since Sunday afternoon, following rumours that Coleen had gone into labour.
The striker has been excused from playing for Man Utd in their next fixture against CSKA Moscow at Old Trafford tonight.
Childhood sweethearts Coleen and Wayne have been together since their teens, and the England striker reportedly proposed on a petrol station forecourt in Liverpool.
News that Coleen (23) was pregnant emerged earlier this year although rumours had regularly circulated since the couple's wedding last summer.
