Coleen Rooney has reportedly been left ‘gutted’ as her husband Wayne is forced to miss out on an ’emotional’ I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! moment.
The WAG, 38, is gearing up for her hugely anticipated appearance on the ITV series which kicks off November 17 and wraps up December 8.
And while the campmates close friends and family will fly out to meet their loved ones on the famous bridge, Wayne’s busy football schedule will prevent him from being there.
The former player is currently the manager of EFL Championship club Plymouth Argyle and is desperate to see results.
His team have matches on November 22, 26 and 30 as well as December 7, 10, and 14.

A source told The Sun: ‘Coleen will be gutted Wayne can’t get out there to meet her, but she understands how demanding his job is. He’s desperate to string a decent set of results together before Christmas.
‘He and Coleen have been living miles apart for months so that will have prepared them for the separation.’
‘Coleen’s very family-orientated so she’ll find the show tough. Whoever is waiting for her, it’ll be incredibly emotional.’
MailOnline has contacted Coleen’s representative for comment.
Elsewhere, it has been revealed that Coleen will be exempt from certain trials due to medical grounds.
The wife of former England and Manchester United footballer Wayne has been ruled out of the gruelling trials due to her reactive arthritis.
And the news has drastically affected her odds at winning.
Bookies Ladbrookes have revealed that whilst Coleen was initially predicted to be the favourite to win, her odds have been slashed down to 10/1.
Campmate Maura Higgins is now surged ahead according to the latest odds with 6/1 alongside McFly’s Danny Jones at 5/2 and Corrie star Alan Halsall with 5/1.

Rebekah Vardy will be losing sleep over Coleen’s appearance on I’m a Celebrity – and her Wagatha Christie case lawyers will be carefully watching what her rival says, experts told MailOnline.
Coleen is rumoured to be earning at least £1.5million for signing up for the ITV primetime hit hosted by Ant and Dec.
The show begins in Australia next week and Coleen’s decision to go has been described as the ‘ultimate revenge’ on her rival because Rebekah was booted out early in the 2017 series.
One source close to Leicester City WAG Rebekah has claimed she now has no interest in the programme any longer – and most certainly won’t be watching.
