How many kids do Coleen and Wayne Rooney have and what are their names?
Coleen and Wayne Rooney have four children and their names are Kai, 13, Klay, 10, Kit, seven, and Cass, five. The footballer's wife is said to be contemplating having a fifth child in the hope for a daughter. A source told Heat, "To be honest, she’s feeling a little panicked and anxious about turning 37. She can’t help feeling like she’s up against a clock and has to make a decision now before it’s too late.
"The truth is, she’s never stopped thinking about having another baby and always said she wanted a girl. She used to joke that she wasn’t going to stop until she got one, but she’s also aware of how much she has on her plate with four very energetic and rowdy boys."
Kai is already following in his father's footballing footsteps, as the teen has already made headlines for his goalscoring attributes after signing for Manchester United in 2020. The youngster scored a staggering 56 goals and provided 28 assists in the 2021/22 season.
