Wayne Rooney still hasn't reunited with his wife Coleen after she jetted back to the UK following her stint on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!

The former player turned manager, 39, was spotted arriving for training on Thursday morning in Plymouth in his first sighting since she landed - while she cracked on with the school run.

Pressure is growing on Wayne after his Plymouth Argyle side suffered back-to-back thrashings at the hands of Bristol City and Norwich and is reportedly 'fighting to save his job'. 

He wrapped up warm in a black padded coat as he stepped out with newly-appointed former Manchester United first team coach Mike Phelan - who has been drafted in to help him keep his job and turn Plymouth's season around.

'Mike is someone I know well having worked with him when I was a player at Manchester United and he has vast experience at the highest level of football,' Wayne said of the recruitment. 'I am really pleased to bring him to Argyle and look forward to seeing him get to work immediately.'

And while he's not yet had time to reunite with wife Coleen amid his busy managing schedule he had had time for a shave and was sporting trimmed facial hair on Thursday.

Wayne was not at Manchester airport on Wednesday to meet Coleen after she landed back in the UK following her long flight back from Australia.

It was another night of woe for Wayne, whose Plymouth side were beaten 2-1 at home by Swansea on Tuesday, which extended their winless run to five games.

Rooney was reunited with a familiar face from his time at Manchester United in Mike, Sir Alex Ferguson's former assistant manager, in the dugout on Tuesday night.

Phelan was appointed Plymouth's assistant head coach on Sunday, but the two were unable to sprinkle any of their United magic dust on the ailing Pilgrims.

On Thursday morning Coleen returned to normality - just hours after landing in Manchester following a three week appearance on I'm A Celebrity.

The mother-of-four was back on the school run with children Klay, 11, Kit, eight, and six-year old Cass, the morning after her return to England. 

Taking to Instagram, Coleen, 38, shared a selfie of herself and the boys as she drove them in for the first time since she embarked on her Australian adventure in November

And she is set to land a huge payday after her jungle beauty secret was revealed during her stint on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here

The brunette looked sensational during her appearance on the ITV show and her glowing skin and glossy brunette tresses were no accident as she reportedly had one supplement with her while in the jungle.

Coleen and her family have now flown back from the I'm A Celebrity jungle (seen at the airport on Wednesday)

Ahead of her trip to Australia, Coleen signed a deal with wellness brand Applied Nutrition, and was taking the brands collagen capsules every day.

The wife of former Manchester United and England icon Wayne is now set to launch her very own range of products in partnership with the global brand in the new year. 

A source has told The Sun: 'Coleen was definitely taking the hair, skin & nails collagen capsules every day in the jungle. 

'She was always glowing, even after weeks of gruelling trials, and there was serious buzz on social media about how great she looked.'

Coleen, who already holds a stake in the company, is in line to make a fortune from her investment, with her own range of products hitting shelves in early 2025.

The source added: 'There is a huge PR campaign planned around her work with Applied Nutrition. In fact, a major TV advert was recorded before she went into the jungle and it is set to air on prime time TV early in the new year.'

It comes after Coleen will reportedly earn big bucks if she agrees to bring her iconic TV show back after 16 years off screens.

Coleen is set to make a huge payday after her jungle beauty secret was revealed following a successful stint on the long-running ITV1 show 

ITV are said to be desperate to snap up the WAG to host television shows following her successful stint on I'm A Celebrity, which saw her finish second behind winner Danny Jones.

The broadcaster has offered her a big-money deal, which will apparently include the comeback series of Coleen's Real Women.

The show, which originally aired on ITV2 back in 2008, saw Coleen tasked with finding naturally beautiful women to be the face of major brands.

The Sun also reported that she's been eyed up for slots on Loose Women and This Morning.
