I am goiung to play the devil's advocate now. I know many of you are going to disagree with me, but I just want to state how I see it.
I have never liked Coleen. I don't know why. I know many people see/saw the "girl next door who got lucky" with her "real woman body" and so on. Frankly, none of that ever impressed me. It's quite funny how many people confuse average looks with a down-to-earth personality. She has always had that smugness about her. All her interviews and her book are full of statements meant to prove how down to earth, normal and nice she is and at the same time they're all totally egocentric, it's just ME, ME, ME.
Maybe it was just my personal impression, but when they got married, it seemed to me - it SEEMED to me, I don't know them personally or anyhing, just teh vibe I got from the pictures and interviews - that the lavish wedding was what Coleen - and only Coleen - wanted. Wayne seems like the type of guy who would have preferred celebrating in their local pub.
None of that means that she deserves having her husband cheating on her of course.
Wayne Rooney is - to say it bluntly - ugly. He probably wouldn't have much going for him if he wasn't Wayne Rooney, the famous footballer. He has pretty (or if not pretty, then at least sexy) girls throwing themselves at him and he has been with Coleen since he was very young.
I'm not saying that what he did is ok. But we're all human and people make mistakes. And I do belive that he actually does love Coleen and care for her.
