I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! camper Coleen Rooney has recalled visiting former American president Donald Trump at the White House.
During Sunday, 24 November’s episode, the 38-year-old regaled the likes of Barry McGuigan, Danny Jones and GK Barry with the time she and her husband Wayne Rooney were invited to Washington DC’s iconic presidential residence when he was playing for the capital state’s football team in the 2018/2019 season.
Apparently, one specific comment from Trump caused Rooney to think he was a “dirty b******”.
What, how and why?
The ‘Wagatha Christie’ personality shared: “When we lived in America, we got invited to the White House for Christmas.
“We walked in and we had to get like the official photograph taken in front of the Christmas tree and stuff; so Donald Trump said to his son: ‘See, told ya! All the soccer players get the good-looking girls.'”
Laughing, Rooney added: “I told my mum. I was like, ‘Dirty b******!’ He wanted Wayne to go over and teach his son how to play football.”
Yahoo UK has reached out to Trump’s representatives for comment.

Over in the Bush Telegraph, influencer Barry couldn’t believe what she’d just heard.
“Coleen says such crazy things so naturally, she’s like: ‘Yeah… when we went to the White House’ and I just think ‘Can we stop there? Can you just go back a second, you went to the White House?’
“Who in their normal day-to-day life goes into the White House! Just everything that happens I think, what a woman. And she’s still so chilled out, I’d have high blood pressure.”
What else happened on I’m a Celebrity?
Later on, Rooney and Dean McCullough took on the Absolute Carnage trial.
BBC Radio 1 presenter McCullough had to locate 12 different tools hidden in variously grotesque bins, buckets, boxes and compartments, which his co-star had to then use to unscrew yellow stars for camp meals.
Rooney was joined in the back of a van by cockroaches, crickets, mealworms and rats, and they managed to collect 9 stars in total.
I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! airs on ITV1.
