Pictures and video obtained by The Sun show the dad of four, married to Coleen, relaxing in the Manchester venue in the early hours of Saturday.

It was full of celebrities ahead of Saturday night’s Brits ceremony in the city.

One surprised onlooker told The Sun: “People who noticed Wayne were saying, ‘What would Coleen think?’. She was nowhere to be seen.”

They added: “Wayne appeared to have been drinking. He seemed to have had a few.”

It comes after he revealed last year that he had curbed his boozing after hitting the bottle too hard in his football career, and said he would be dead if it was not for the support of Coleen.

Rooney had been at the city centre hotel with pop star Calum Scott before he appeared to catch the attention of the two women. One was with her boyfriend.

The group also included a male pal of Rooney.

Witnesses said he looked “worse for wear” at 1.30am when he came out of a ­toilet and fumbled with his trousers.

One told The Sun: “Wayne couldn’t seem to get his trousers done up.

“At one moment, they almost dropped to the floor but he managed to save them.”

He then “kept pulling his trousers up, but then they’d fall down again”.

Rooney went on to spend almost two hours chatting to the two mystery ladies and knocking back drinks.

An onlooker said: “He seemed like he was ­having a laugh and joking around with the women.”

Rooney and one of the women eventually left the establishment, before getting into separate cars just after 3.25am.

One witness said: “He later left alone. He stood outside where there were quite a few people gathered and got into a car.

“Around eight minutes later, a taxi came and picked the woman up.

“People in the queue recognised it was him and were saying he didn’t seem to be in a great place.”

Wayne had been at a party with stars including I’m A Celebrity’s Shona McGarty and rapper Aitch prior to spending time with the women.

Shona shared a photograph of her posing with Wayne inside the bash on Instagram and wrote: “Just a little pre Brits party.”

The former EastEnders actress appeared in ITV’s I’m A Celeb jungle show with Wayne’s wife Coleen in 2024.

Rooney, now a BBC pundit on Match of the Day, has had a string of incidents involving other women over the years.

He admitted using sex workers before he married childhood ­sweetheart Coleen, who is mother to their four sons Kai, 16, Klay, 12, Kit, ten, and Cass, eight.

It was also reported that Wayne even had a threesome with two sex workers while Coleen was pregnant with Kai.

In 2017, he was arrested for drink-driving, with office worker Laura Simpson in the car, following a night out in Cheshire.

Rooney was hit with a driving ban.

Last September, he emotionally revealed that Coleen, 39, was helping him cut down on booze.

Rooney said: “I honestly believe if she weren’t there I’d be dead.

“I’ve made mistakes in the past which are well documented and whatever but I’m a little bit ­different at times and she keeps me on that path and she’s done it for 20-odd years.

“I wanted to go out and enjoy my time with my friends and have a night out. It got to a point where I went too far.

“That was a moment in my life where I was struggling massively with alcohol.

“I didn’t think I could turn to anyone. I didn’t really want to because I didn’t want to put that burden on anyone.”

Rooney, who is Man United’s all-time leading goalscorer, added of his wife: “She’s managed me because I needed managing.”

Speaking in 2023, Coleen admitted their relationship has at times been “hard”.

But she went on: “There’s always been love there so why give up on it?

“If the love’s still there, why not see if you can work it out?

“People haven’t seen that because we’ve done that behind closed doors and it’s been a battle at times, it’s been hard.

“People only see what’s in the Press, they don’t know what goes on in our life.”

She added: “It was out there, we’ve dealt with it, and we’re moving on.”

Yesterday, Coleen opened up about their marriage again in another interview.

Asked if her husband would think she was bossy, Coleen replied: “He would probably say that, but I would say he needs ­telling sometimes.”

She added: “You have your ups and downs, you have things that happen in life.

“But I think being together from a young age, we know each other inside and out.

“We’re a team. I wouldn’t say we’ve changed.

“I would say things around us have changed.”

Football bad lad drinks it all over

WAYNE Rooney’s boozy Brit Awards antics follow a string of drunken scandals during and after his two-decade footie career.

The England great hit the headlines in 2004, when it emerged he had visited massage parlours and prostitutes.

Then aged 19, he said in an apology: “People may understand that it was the sort of mistake you make when you are young and stupid.”

A year after marrying wife Coleen in 2008, Wayne was caught having a threesome with two sex workers while she was pregnant with their first son Kai.

In 2017, he was arrested for drink-driving after a night out while driving home party girl Laura Simpson and slapped with a two-year driving ban and 100 hours of unpaid community service.

Meanwhile, Coleen moved out of their Cheshire mansion.

A year later in 2018, while playing for DC United in the US, Wayne was arrested at a Virginia airport for public intoxication and swearing.

The striker was released on bail — but a few months later The Sun revealed he had been pictured partying with a Florida barmaid for which he incurred the wrath of his wife.

Things came to a head in 2021 when we revealed he had been pictured asleep in a hotel room with three women.

The dad of four has repeatedly promised to rein in his party antics — confessing to drinking “for two days straight” at the peak of his career.
