He wrote: ‘Happy Anniversary @coleen_rooney. 11 years today! Love you girl ❤️😘’

The pair tied the knot back in 2008, in a lavish ceremony on the Italian Riviera.

The proposal was far less glamorous, as Wayne popped the question in a BP garage forecourt because he couldn’t wait to get to the restaurant.

Last summer the whole family moved to Washington DC, following Wayne's signing at DC United.

After speculation if Coleen would remain in the UK with the kids, she confirmed the move on Twitter: ‘Wishing our Daddy and my Wayne all the luck, happiness and success in America!!! It’s a move we are going to do as a family.’

Coleen was recently forced to respond to criticism after sharing a picture of her children playing on iPads while outside.

She wrote: ‘ calm down, calm down... yes my children have and use iPads!!! And even my 15 month old watches Peppa Pig on one would you believe!! They come in handy sometimes and can be very educational. Mathletics and spelling apps are used all time by kai and klay ... check them out .’
