Coleen Rooney is seen becoming emotional and saying “the house is not happy” in a trailer for the Disney+ documentary series The Real Rooneys.

Wayne and Coleen Rooney have invited cameras into their home as they juggle work responsibilities with raising their sons Kai, 16, Klay, 13, Kit, 10, and Cass, eight.

In a clip from the trailer, Coleen speaks to a friend about the stresses of family life, saying: “It’s just a bit hard, juggling everything. The house is not happy.”

The family’s Cheshire mansion is shown, with Coleen saying: “This house is everything I’ve dreamed of, the only problem is we’ve got to share it with our four boys.”

Klay is seen being interviewed by an off-camera producer who asks: “Who’s more famous, mum or dad?”

He replies: “My dad. My mum is only known because of my dad.”

Wayne also confirms the couple will not have any more children, saying: “No chance, I’ll have the snip.”

Coleen references her court case against Rebekah Vardy and her appearance on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! as she works on developing a collection with Primark.

She says: “Since the court case and then the jungle, it’s opened up a lot of doors.”

Wayne is also seen playing football with eldest son Kai, who is a forward for Manchester United’s youth academy.

Later in the trailer, Wayne lifts Coleen into his arms as she says in voiceover: “It feels like we’re on the edge of a new life.”

At the end of the trailer, Coleen says: “No-one knows the real Rooneys. This is a side of us we’ve never shown before.”

Wayne and Coleen have been married since 2008 after starting a relationship in their teens.

Wayne retired from football in January 2001 at the age of 35 and now works as a TV pundit.

Viewers will be able to stream episodes one to eight on Disney+ on September 24, with two special episodes available to stream on October 1.
