Coleen And Wayne Rooney’s Britney Spears Theme Wedding
THE wedding of Wayne Rooney and his Coleen, and a question for OK! readers:
Who would have thought that two 16 year olds who met on the streets of Liverpool, went to an Austin Powers movie, and got engaged on a petrol station forecourt , would six years later be getting married in the most glamorous and talked-about wedding of the decade?”
Well, not OK! which would surely have secured the rights to the wedding snaps for something more akin to a Family pack of Revels and a quick feel by the crisps, rather then £3million.
This is a do that is all about the money. And OK! is keen to get value, featuring the wedding over 79 pages, which works out at just under £38,000 a page, something JK Rowling may find excessive.
But they look happy enough, the glowing bride and her groom as they exchange their I dos and then “slipped into separate Mercedes Benz cars to prepare for the main event”.
Odd to think that the wedding at a wedding is not the main thing, and that after tying the knot the happy could go off in opposite directions.
It’s all a bit like a Britney Spears theme wedding, albeit with Aleppo pines for cacti and an Italian seascape not fashioned from neon and chlorine…

very true - 99% of the reporting of this wedding has gone on about the cost of everything, as if this was something to be admired…

Seperate Mercedes?
We slipped into a rusty 1964 Ford 500 that wouldn’t shift into high gear.
Well never mind, things have worked out well since.
I hope they’re happy.
