My Account by Coleen Rooney
Coleen tells us how her upbringing prepared her for a life in the full glare of public and media scrutiny.

At just seventeen, she and boyfriend Wayne left their childhood homes to live together and in time they had their own young family to care for. But being married to one of the world’s most successful sportsmen has also meant that any private difficulties they faced were inevitably exposed very publicly. Published 9th November 2023.

No one in the group has heard from her since.
