Coleen Rooney has been branded a “coward” by a former I’m A Celeb campmate after her trial exemption.
The famous WAG, 38, has reportedly scooped the show’s biggest-ever fee but will be exempt from some gruesome trials on medical grounds due to suffering arthritis. However, this has left former I’m A Celeb icon Kim Woodburn “annoyed” as she brands her a “waste of money”.
Kim, 82, was speaking on behalf of WhichBingo.co.uk, the home of the best bingo sites and new casino games, when she exclusively told us: “Do you know what’s annoyed me in the paper? I’m a bit annoyed about this.

“Coleen Rooney, I looked here at the front page yesterday and it said ‘she probably won’t be able to do any trials because she suffers from arthritis’. Then why is she in there?
“Look, she’s getting a shellload of money. Well, why are they having her in there? I don’t want to look at her sitting there. It’s disgusting. What are they thinking of if somebody said no she’s got arthritis, she’s got cowardice, it’s what she’s got.
Why do we want her in there, sitting there? Oh, that’s Wayne Rooney’s wife. That’s going to be a very boring show, dear. She’s going to get loads of publicity, and she’s not doing a thing.”
Kim competed on the show back in 2009 when she came in 2nd place as runner-up to Gino D’Acampo. She added: “I was well into my 60s and I did it flaming cheek. I suffered from old age, but I did it all the wines.
“Why would you have someone in there when you’re saying beforehand, I doubt they’ll be able to do that. Don’t they know that we public want to see them suffering? So it’s going to be if this is what’s going to go on, we’ll all be falling asleep.”
Coleen is reportedly raking in a whopping £1.5 million for entering the ITV jungle which has trumped Caitlyn Jenner as the highest-ever fee, according to The Sun.
