I didnt really want to because I didnt want to put that burden on anyone."I just drank for two days straight.

Shes managed me because I needed managing."As for Coleen, she previously said of their marriage: "Weve had our ups and weve had our downs but weve had experiences that you would never have imagined."GB News have contacted the Rooneys for comment.
