Coleen Rooney’s youngest children Kit, seven, and Cass, six, clutch Wayne figurine as they jet to Australia with their grandparents for an emotional reunion
Coleen Rooney’s two youngest sons have flown out to Australia with the I’m A Celebrity star’s parents, ready for an emotional reunion with their mum.
And whilst Coleen’s husband Wayne Rooney is staying home thanks to his job as a manager at Plymouth Argyle, the boys made sure they took a reminder of their dad with them.
Coleen’s youngest son Cass, six, was carrying a cuddly kangaroo as well as a figure of Wayne in a football kit as he arrived at check-in.
The star’s parents have said they are ‘very excited’ to see their daughter in the I’m A Celebrity jungle as they flew out to Australia.
Colette and Tony McLoughlin arrived at Manchester Airport with their grandchildren Kit and Cass, at 10am to catch an Emirates flight to Brisbane where they will greet their only daughter when she leaves the show.
And the WAG’s parents said they thought she might win the hit ITV1 show.

Her mother Colette said: ‘We are very proud of her. She is doing very well. We are all very excited to see her.’
Asked if she might win the jungle crown, smiling Colette, 61, who was dressed in a jungle-esque khaki two piece outfit, said: ‘She’s got a chance’.
Her father Tony added: ‘She’s doing pretty well, we are all very proud of how she’s doing.
‘She’s doing alright and is coming across really well. You never know she might win.
‘We’ve got a long flight now to see her.’
The couple and the two children arrived at the airport from her daughter’s Cheshire mansion in two people carriers.
One car carried the family while the other took some of their five large suitcases.
Kit was seen pushing his own suitcase with ‘KR’ in big red letters on it.
The family checked in for the 13.10 flight to Dubai which is due to connect to Brisbane in the early hours.
Coleen’s older sons, Kai, 15 and Klay, 12, decided to stay at home with their father Wayne who is the manager of Championship football team Plymouth Argyle.

The WAG revealed that they chose not to jet out to Australia, telling The Mail on Sunday: ‘My two youngest ones are coming over. They all had the option but the two older ones decided that they would stay at home to continue with school and football.’
‘I think I said when you come you’ll have to bring your work with you, and they would be missing some football tournaments, so they quickly changed their minds.’
‘Obviously I would have liked them all to come out but it makes sense in a way and they both chose a wise decision not to miss out on anything back home and as soon as the show’s over, I’m back straight away.’
‘So, it’s one of those things, I put it in their hands, they decided and I agree with it really. I think it was missing the football that really did it for them, they didn’t want to miss any tournaments.’
Coleen, 38, who his been joined on I’m A Celeb by the likes of boxer Barry McGuigan, Love Island star Maura Higgins and singer Tulisa Contostavlos, stunned viewers on Sunday night when she described Donald Trump as a ‘dirty b******’ when he told his son in front of her that the ‘soccer players get all of the good looking girls.’

Coleen’s decision to take part on the programme raised eyebrows – she is a super rich mother-of-four who for more than a decade tried to stay out of the limelight take part in Britain’s most watched television.
Speaking of her decision, she said: ‘It’s something that I will never ever do again in my lifetime,’ Coleen says.
‘It’s a one-off adventure and it’s a test of now, we are so caught up in a busy life and with devices and I just feel like now’s the time I could go and do something for myself because I feel like I’m always doing, like I’m a mum, a wife, I feel like I can do something for me.
‘It’s the perfect show. You are taking yourself away from a world where you’re constantly doing things to a world where it’s back to basics and you’ve got to fend just for yourself and look after yourself.
‘It’s taking yourself away from your comfort zone which has been a hard decision to make but I feel like it’s time and I’m ready for it.
‘This show is going to be the most I’ve ever been exposed and people will get to see me for me. Everyone has opinions of people in the public eye.’

Her husband Wayne is unlikely to be flying out to Australia to meet her when she departs the camp while being tied to his job as a manager at Plymouth Argyle.
But before she left for Australia Coleen made sure Wayne had everything prepared to juggle family life.
Sharing an Instagram video before she left for the airport Coleen told her followers: ‘I am really anxious about leaving the kids, that’s my biggest thing, for weeks and months that’s been on my mind.
‘But I’ve come to terms with it and I’ve planned and prepped, I’ve got an army of people – family and friends – school friends all helping out with the kids. They are going to be fine, they’ll probably have a great time.
‘I’ve prepped as you can see, behind me, that is literally front and back four weeks of timetables, football runs, parties and everything.’
Wayne is the manager of EFL Championship club Plymouth Argyle, meaning he has to spend time away from the family home.
Coleen’s mum flashed a huge smile as they arrived at the airport with Kit seen helping with the cases
Wayne will be holding fort back home as he continues with his own work commitments
His team have matches on November 22, 26 and 30 as well as December 7, 10, and 14, meaning the couple will rely on their ‘army’ of friends and family to help look after their sons.
Meanwhile Oti Mabuse’ husband, daughter and mum all touched down in Australia on Tuesday.
Oti’s husband Marius Lapure arrived Down Under with their daughter, 13 months, and her mother, Dudu Mabuse ahead of the upcoming I’m A Celebrity vote-offs which are expected to be at the end of the week.
Their arrival comes after Oti defended her decision to leave her newborn to star in the Jungle, by insisting, ‘Mum has goals too. She won’t remember it, it’s just a couple of days’.
It’s been two weeks since the former Strictly Come Dancing professional, 36, arrived in Brisbane Airport for her stint on the ITV show and the trio have flown out to Australia to meet her off the bridge when she leaves.

Marius was all smiles as he wrapped an arm around Oti’s mum Dudu and carried the couple’s little girl in a sling as they made their way through the airport.
Oti has yet to face a Bushtucker trial during the ITV show but Marius said he thought it was a good thing she hasn’t had too much airtime.
Speaking to MailOnline in Australia, he said: ‘I think she has enough. I don’t think it’s a good thing to stick out. I think it’s about the whole group, there are different situations and challenges.’
Marius said he had been voting for his wife but he couldn’t wait to meet her off the bridge, ‘As you can imagine and the baby cannot wait.’
Speaking about how he felt about Oti going into the Jungle and leaving him to look after their daughter, the professional dancer said: ‘We were discussing this for the best part of a few years.

‘She always said she would love to do it. I teach kids because we have a dance studio so I’m used to looking after them and we have the best help with her family and my parents.’
The father-of-one said it had been ‘so nice looking after the little one’ and revealed: ‘She’s been sleeping so well, we actually couldn’t get out of the plane because she was still sleeping. [They took about an hour to come off the plane].’
