Coleen and Wayne seen together for first time since his arrest

They were spotted by a fan in the least likely of places

Coleen Rooney has given the clearest sign yet that she has forgiven husband Wayne, after they were seen together in public for the first time in two months.

But rather than being snapped at a glamorous restaurant or on a tropical beach, the couple were actually seen somewhere a lot more low-key.

Where, you ask?

Well, it was none other than their local branch of Nando’s in Didsbury, Manchester!

An eagle-eyed fan snapped the millionaire couple and their kids patiently waiting for their order earlier this week, in a picture obtained by The Sun.

The spotter joked: “In Didsbury, even Wayne Rooney has to wait for his Nando’s!”

Pregnant Coleen and Wayne were joined by their three sons: Kai, seven, Klay, four, and one-year-old Kit.

It’s the first time Coleen, 31, and Wayne, 32, have been seen together since his drink-driving arrest in another woman’s car at the start of September.

He was pulled over by police while driving a VW Beetle belonging to an office worker named Laura Simpson.

Laura, 29, was quoted as saying they had a “kiss, a hug and some banter, harmless fun” but thought they probably would have slept together if the police hadn’t stopped them, before claiming she’d been misquoted and nothing happened.

That incident sparked a slew of speculation that Wayne and Coleen’s nine-year marriage was on the rocks, strengthened by the fact Coleen removed her wedding rings.

Wayne was banned from driving for two years and also ordered to perform 100 hours of unpaid work as part of a 12-month community order.

He later issued an apology for letting down his family, friends and fans.

As neither Coleen nor Wayne has spoken out to address rumours about the state of their marriage, the speculation has been left to run rampant and it’s totally unclear just what’s going on!

The latest claim, courtesy of The Sun, suggests the public Nando’s outing is a sign Coleen’s thawing towards Wayne – but their marriage isn’t completely back on track.

A source alleged: “Although he shouldn’t count his chickens just yet as Coleen is still reluctant to put her rings back on.”

It was recently claimed Wayne and Coleen had enjoyed a weekend away together in the Cotsworlds without the kids, in a bid to talk through things and clear the air.

The couple met as teenagers and married in 2008.

Coleen has kept completely silent on anything to do with Wayne since his arrest, although she has been active on social media posting photos of their children and pregnancy updates.

Does the Nando’s outing mean we may see Wayne popping up on her Instagram soon, though?

Only time will tell…
