ITV I'm a celebrity Coleen Rooney's 'dirty b*****d' claim after meeting Donald Trump
by Lee Grimsditch · Manchester Evening NewsA surprise revelation that nobody was expecting was revealed in the jungle on ITV's I'm a Celebrity tonight. The campmates were agog by Coleen Rooney's story about the time she met Donald Trump.
Although used to rubbing shoulders with the stars of sport and entertainment, Coleen recalled the time both she and her former Manchester United star husband, Wayne Rooney, were invited to the White House. In 2018 and 2019, Coleen and her family were living state-side when Wayne played for US soccer team DC United.
Coleen shared with the camp: "When we lived in America, we were invited to the White House for Christmas, and we went in to meet Donald Trump. And we walked in and we got to get the official photograph taken in front of the Christmas tree.

"So Donald Trump said to my son 'see? Told ya, all the soccer players get the good looking girls.' And I told my mum, I was like 'dirty b*****d'."
Coleen then disclosed to the camp how Trump "wanted Wayne to go over to teach his son to play football."
When Danny quizzed Coleen about Donald Trump, asking "Is he that orange?" Coleen replied: "He was very orange".
Reacting to Coleen's revelation, viewers of the show took to X (formerly Twitter).
One viewer said: "Calling Trump a dirty b*****d wasn’t what I expected from this series but it just confirms she’s a smart cookie! #ImACeleb".
A second viewer posted: "I absolutely love Coleen on this. She's one of those women you can imagine instantly being friends with. #ImACeleb".
A third viewer posted: "the fact that Coleen also called Trump a dirty b*****d under her breath. What a queen #ImACeleb".
On Saturday night, Coleen's husband Wayne Rooney stunned the stars of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here's spin-off show when he dropped a bombshell about appearing in the jungle himself as wife Coleen takes part in the current series.
The former Manchester United and England star appeared on I'm A Celebrity: Unpacked on Saturday night (November 23) to chat about Coleen's I'm a Celeb adventure so far but went as far to admit that he would be up for doing the hit ITV reality show next.
His comments came after he encouraged I'm A Celeb viewers to vote for his wife to do a Bushtucker Trial as he feels she would want to "put herself to the test". The 39-year-old said he was "proud" of how Coleen was doing in the Australian jungle in a post on social media ahead of Saturday's show.
