Wayne Rooney’s wife Coleen Rooney is reportedly concerned over her husband’s lifestyle in Plymouth.
The Manchester United legend took charge of Plymouth Argyle over the summer in a surprise move.
And it has been a tough start to life in the south-west with just two wins this season, leaving them 18th in the Championship.
Nevertheless, the club’s form has not been what wife Coleen is most concerned about – instead it is his health.

According to the Daily Mail, Rooney is living a ‘lone bachelor lifestyle’, hundreds of miles way from his family.
The 38-year-old has reportedly been living on booze and takeaways in Devon while his wife and kids remain in Cheshire nearly 200 miles up north.
One customer at a local bar of Rooney’s revealed that ‘he comes in quite often for a few drinks’, and told the Daily Mail: “He’s definitely put on some weight since he’s been down here, maybe he’s getting stuck into the pasties.”
A video of Rooney went viral recently of the Englishman singing karaoke in a local pub and has also been known to frequent various pub quiz nights.
In the evenings in his rented flat, he is said to spend the evenings alone eating fast food and playing on games consoles while also drinking.
Coleen has had her concerns since Rooney made the move to Plymouth and recently tried to put him on a health plan.
The Rooney family are going on holiday this year and Coleen has been trying to get her husband to slim down before the family trip.
A source said: “Coleen’s told him no more takeaways, so she’s sorting out meal plans as well as making sure he’s busy when he’s not at work.”

Initially, it was thought that Rooney’s wife and four kids would make the move down south with him.
But these plans were scrapped despite a period of time house-hunting as the couple did not want to disrupt their kids’ lives at school.

Coleen has been worried about husband Wayne Rooney
In a recent interview, Coleen said: ‘We thought long and hard about it (moving to Devon) but with the kids it didn’t work.
Coleen recently said in an interview: “Kai’s now in year 10 and just starting GCSE prep and everything’s going well with football.
“And the other boys are all settled at school, so it didn’t seem fair on the children to pick them up and take them away, and start in a whole new place.”
