On the Birth of his son - 2 November 2009:A few days later, Coleen Rooney said:Now I have someone to look after and I just want to be with Kai and Coleen as much as possible. Becoming a dad means you have to be a role model for your son and be someone he can look up to.
I'm hoping he will grow up to have Wayne's temperament.Little did she know that only a few months earlier, her husband had been cheating on her, if we are to believe the newspapers have reported.
It's a sad situation for many. His wife, his fans, Manchester United and probably himself. He will be ashamed of what he reportedly did and will regret it enormously. The revelations could destroy not only his marriage to Coleen, who he met when both were still in school, but his career.
Taunts that he looks like Disney character Shrek, will be much worse to say the least, and multi-million pound sponsor-ship deals could be thrown out of the window as he has failed to uphold a family-man image and reputation of which the deals require.
His Manchester United manager will not be pleased either. Sir Alex has spent a lot of time and effort trying to drill into his young players lessons on the need for discipline, on and off the pitch. In addition, Ferguson has always supported Rooney when he has been going through rough patches in his career, after all, he is United's star striker, but it will take a lot of arduous talks with his manager, known for his bad temper and hot head to gain the Scots forgivness and apologise.
You may say that it is his personal life, and people shouldn't be poking around in it, but surely he musn't have thought that with the media as it is and newspapers always hungry for an "Exclusive" report, he could get away with it? And the girl? He couldn't have thought (and/or hoped) that she would stay quiet about it, when she could easily sell her story.
I really liked Rooney - as a player, and although I hope the stories aren't true, I know that they most probably are. Unfortunatley after this, you can't help but lose a lot of respect for him - as a person.
