Coleen Rooney's Lavish 40th Birthday Preparations at £20m Cheshire Estate
Coleen Rooney has made a significant alteration to her £20 million Cheshire mansion, famously nicknamed the 'Morrisons mansion', in anticipation of her milestone 40th birthday celebrations. The I'm A Celebrity star has reportedly installed a giant marquee in the garden of the property she shares with husband Wayne Rooney, as preparations officially get underway for the Easter weekend festivities.
The 'Morrisons Mansion': A Private Yet Opulent Abode
While the Rooneys typically maintain a high level of privacy regarding their home life, it is known that the couple purchased the plot of land for £4 million back in 2017. Officially named High Lake Manor, the sprawling estate covers an impressive 50 acres of former farmland. The property earned its 'Morrisons mansion' moniker from locals due to its vast size, flat roof, and modern architectural style that some have compared to a supermarket.
Inside the six-bedroom palace, residents and guests enjoy numerous luxury amenities including:
- A full-size football pitch
- An underground tunnel system
- A temperature-controlled wine cellar
- A state-of-the-art home cinema
- A vast swimming pool complex
- Multiple bars and entertainment areas
- A dazzling trophy room showcasing Wayne's football accolades
Extended Birthday Celebrations and Family Focus
Coleen has planned a series of events to mark her 40th birthday, with the garden party being a central celebration. She told OK! magazine: "I'm looking forward to it. I love a birthday and a celebration. I have decided to enjoy a couple of different celebrations with family and friends over the year and with my birthday falling over Easter weekend, some friends are away - so any opportunity to extend the celebrations."
The Rooneys share four children: Kai, 16, Klay, 12, Kit, 10, and Cass, 8. The birthday preparations come shortly after the couple presented a united front during a family trip to Disneyland Paris, where they enjoyed a VIP preview of the park's new World of Frozen attraction with their youngest son.
Recent Public Appearances and Marital Dynamics
This display of family unity followed reports that Coleen had been spotted without her wedding ring after Wayne was photographed drinking with two mystery women. However, during the Disneyland outing, Coleen wore her wedding ring prominently while posing happily for photographs with her husband and son.
Earlier this month, the couple made another strong statement about their marriage when Wayne attended a celebratory launch event for Coleen's Primark collection in Liverpool. A source told The Sun: "Wayne was by Coleen's side last night. He was on his best behaviour and was being very affectionate with her. He might have skipped her London launch, but he was keen to support her closer to home in Liverpool and show just how proud he is of her."
The source added that all eyes were on the couple during the event, noting that cameras were present for Coleen's documentary project, suggesting fans will eventually see more of what has been happening behind closed doors at the Rooney residence.
