Wayne and Coleen Rooney spotted out and about together in Cheshire after arriving in separate cars
Wayne and Coleen Rooney were spotted out and about together in Cheshire on Monday morning.
The couple, both 35, parked up nose to nose after arriving in separate cars, leaving the mum-of-four free to break away from her husband to pop into a shop alone.
Coleen looked effortlessly chic in skintight leggings and a designer hoodie, while Wayne wrapped up warm in a padded coat and baseball cap.

Coleen appeared to be ready for a workout as she pounded the pavement in a box fresh pair of trainers and stretchy leggings.
Showing off her penchant for designer duds, the Liverpudlian beauty donned a white Isabel Marant hoodie.

With her brunette tresses scraped back into a sleek ponytail, Coleen completed her look with chic black sunglasses.
Her husband Wayne stepped out alongside her in a black zip-up tracksuit and padded coat, while adding lighter elements to his ensemble with a grey cap and trainers.
After walking along together, Wayne was given Coleen's padded coat to look after as she made her way to a shop on her own.
The pair, who have been married since 2008, have for sons together: Kai, 11, Klay, seven, Kit, five and Cass, three.
Their outing comes after MailOnline exclusively revealed that Rebekah Vardy is making a fresh bid to weaken rival Coleen's case before their so-called Wagatha Christie case reaches its dramatic conclusion.
Rebekah, 39, is working to have a section of evidence from Coleen's defence 'struck out' in her latest move, the section is known as 'TV Details story' and stems from a story Coleen claims she leaked in September 2019.
Meanwhile, Coleen was given just 24 hours (until 4.30pm on Friday) to add any more evidence before a new deadline, with Rebekah then given a chance to serve a reply to Coleen's evidence documents.
The twin developments signal that the two warring Wags are further than ever from reaching an eleventh-hour agreement to prevent a lurid and hugely expensive court case from going ahead.
Rebekah, married to Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy, is suing mother-of-four Coleen for libel after Coleen accused her to leaking false stories over her private life.
The long-running feud between the high-profile WAGS erupted after Coleen revealed that she had set a trap to see who was responsible for the leaks, which earned her the nickname Wagatha Christie.
Coleen famously wrote: 'I have saved and screenshotted all the original stories which clearly show just one person has viewed them. It's ................ Rebekah Vardy's account.'
Soon after, Rebekah took to social media to deny being the person who had leaked the stories to the press, after Coleen's post went viral.
Last June, it emerged that Rebekah had launched a case to sue Coleen for £1 million.
The latest twist in the saga saw Mr Justice Nicklin, set the deadline in an order, telling both women that if they want to change any dates, they have to apply formally to the court.
He also set down a timetable to take the case forward, with both women being required to serve revised costs budgets with the court by June 18 this year.
The section of evidence which Rebekah wants to be 'struck out' in her latest move - removed as evidence from the case - is known as the 'TV Details story' and stems from September 2019.
At that point, Coleen claims to have blocked all followers from her Instagram Stories, except Rebekah, then posted a selfie alongside the text: 'Up and out!! Easing my way back into work!! TV decisions today… maybe it's time for Australia' and 'Good Day' with a heart emoji.
Three days later the Sun published an 'exclusive' story suggesting that Coleen was in talks to join Strictly Come Dancing the following year and was looking 'to revive her TV career'.
According to Coleen's defence document, Rebekah could be inferred to be the source of the Sun's story, but Rebekah's lawyers reject that conclusion, and want the judge to agree with them by striking out the passage.
A costs and case management hearing will take place before procedural judge Master Roger Eastman on July 2, likely to last two and a half hours. The hearing will decide how the case will go ahead.
Already Coleen has described Rebekah's budget of nearly £900,000 for the case as 'grotesque' after a virtual hearing before Master Eastman in March, who said the budgets for both women were 'extraordinarily large.'
Coleen estimated her budget for legal fees at £402,312.
Efforts at mediation in the hope of settling the case are thought doomed to failure, especially since Coleen has declined to remove the posts at the centre of the libel action, which remain accessible online.
Since Rebekah initiated the case there have been a series of legal skirmishes ahead of the planned full case.
In October 2020, Coleen 'doubled down' by filing her 55-page defence and sharing images of the Instagram posts she alleged Rebekah leaked.
The following month, Rebekah won the first round of her High Court libel battle at the 'meanings hearing'
In February, the pair attended a court-ordered mediation session on Zoom, their first meeting for years.
Zoom proceedings began with both sides reading out a statement and then breaking off into separate virtual rooms as the mediator spoke to them and their legal representatives independently.
Former columnist Coleen reportedly tried to reach out to brunette Rebekah after another round of failed talks to avoid a costly legal battle.
However, it's thought that she saw the mediation as a 'waste of time' as TV star Becky continues to demand she apologise for her fierce accusation.
Last February, Rebekah broke down on ITV's Loose Women, saying the feud was 'one of the worst things I had to deal with apart from being abused when I was younger'.
