Proving the old saying that love can conquer all, Coleen and Wayne Rooney will be celebrating an impressive 15 years of marriage next week.
The childhood sweethearts, both aged 37, wed as young 22-year-olds in a lavish Catholic ceremony in Italy in June 2008, where they were serenaded by Westlife and surrounded by stunning white flowers and twinkling lights.
Having faced more than their fair share of marital dramas since then, their anniversary on Monday is a milestone they often seemed unlikely to reach, as their 21-year relationship has been anything but plain sailing.
