Coleen and Wayne are parents to four sons – Kai, Klay, five, Kit, two, and baby Cass, who arrived in February.

Last month, Coleen confirmed that she and the family would join Wayne across the pond.

She told her Twitter followers: “Wishing our Daddy and my Wayne all the luck, happiness and success in America!!! It’s a move we are going to do as a family.”

Coleen went on to pay tribute to her husband’s successful career in English football, saying: “Leaving England with so many trophies and also as England and Man Utd’s all time Top goal scorer is a massive achievement!!

“It hasn’t been done for years and you did it!!!”

Wayne had made his debut for D.C. United just a couple of days earlier.

The football legend signed a three-and-a-half year deal with the Major League Soccer (MLS) team.

Wayne had previously hinted the whole family would be joining him in America after saying he’d chosen Washington D.C. because it was a family-orientated place to live.

According to The Sun, he said of Washington D.C.: “I think this is a great place to bring my family. I came over and had a look around.

“I had been here before but came over to see it first hand and it seemed like the right place my family could move over and have a nice upbringing.”
