English footballer Wayne Rooney reportedly enjoyed a series of sexual liaisons with a 21-year-old prostitute nicknamed "Juicy Jeni" while his wife was pregnant with their first child. The 24-year-old Manchester United striker took the help of text messages to inform his wife Coleen about claims that he repeatedly cheated on her with a prostitute.

Manchester United star delivered the devastating blow as Coleen was at the hairdresser’s preparing for a family celebration.

He warned that 21-year-old Jennifer Thompson had come forward to claim she had sex with the footie ace at the same time as Coleen was expecting their son Kai, now ten months old.

Coleen, 24, was being comforted by her parents after leaving the 4.5million pounds Cheshire mansion she shares with her husband, also 24.

“Coleen and Wayne were supposed to attend a family christening this weekend but they didn’t show up,” the Mail Online quoted a friend as saying.

“Coleen had been getting her hair done on Saturday when Wayne texted her to break the news. He’s a coward for hiding behind a text message, especially when they’d been together earlier that day,” the friend added.

Thompson was quoted in two Sunday newspapers as claiming that she had seven sexual encounters in four months with Rooney last year.

The vice girl, known as ‘Juicy Jeni’, claimed Rooney paid her 1,200 pounds in cash each time.

Thompson, from Bolton, added: ‘Wayne chased me with sex texts and paid in wads of cash. He didn’t seem to care he was betraying Coleen.’

She claimed that she met Rooney at the Manchester 235 Casino in June last year.
