Coleen Rooney has said she and footballer husband Wayne sometimes go out for date nights without leaving the grounds of their property - by sneaking off from the kids to watch TV and eat takeaway. Giggling Coleen, 38, said they once even hired a babysitter and told their four children they were out for the night, only for them to cuddle up in front of the TV just a few yards from where the main family home is. Coleen said: "I've always made time for me and Wayne to go and have time together.
And I do it with the kids as well, they love that one on one time." On their dates she added: “Most of the time we talk about life, the kids do creep in at some point[in conversation], but I think we do and you have a laugh again, and that's good to have that. "And I think because you're not doing it all the time, which it would be a perfect life if you could do that all the time, but them times that you do it feels like a treat.
And I think that's nice. "And we even..
.when we first moved into the house we live in now, we've got like an annex, so we got a babysitter in one night and we had the kids on this Life 360 app, so you can detect on their devices, you can detect the older one if he was coming home from school, I know where the school bus is. And so we said 'right, we're going out, see you later'.
"But we never, we went to the annex because we couldn't be bothered. "We just wanted the night to watch some TV. We got a takeaway and we got a ping of a message.
And they were like 'where are you?'. And we're like, oh, 'we've gone out' telling the little fib. And he went 'no, you're not, you're over in the annex'.
"I was like, oh, oh yeah. I was thinking, you can't do any of them without getting caught out. But even simple things like that, just to sit down and watch a bit of TV.
” Speaking on the Happy Place podcast she also told how she is not worried about turning 40 in the near future. One of her main concerns is the happiness of sons Kai, 15, Klay, 11, Kit, 8, and Cass, six. She said: "Do you know what? I don't really think of age.
I think as long as you feel young and able to do things, I think age, people say it's just a number. "But no, saying that, when I got to 30, I remember being on holiday just before my 30th birthday, and a bit of anxiety set in. But I don't know why.
It was strange. "It was like, am, is this because I'm turning 30, I don't know, it was weird . "I think, you know, just want the kids to still be happy and successful in what they're doing, and, you know, they're all going down different paths and enjoying different things, which is good.
I would like to be still active and just, yes, still have a happy house, a happy mad house." * The full interview with Coleen Rooney is on the Happy Place podcast with Fearne Cotton, out now..
