Wayne Rooney's wife Coleen has spoken out about her husband cheating on her in a new documentary.

In the documentary, she said she hopes her husband has learnt from his past mistakes and will not get into similar situations in the future. Coleen said: "I forgive him, but it wasn't acceptable."

The new documentary, Rooney, released an Amazon Prime tomorrow, explores the footballer's struggles with alcohol and affairs with other women.

Ms Rooney said: "When you're making those decisions you've got to focus on what you want and not what else.

"Obviously, I listen to the people who matter to me - my mum and dad and they've always given me a positive outlook on things and there's nothing that we can't deal with.

"Hopefully he's learnt and he doesn't get himself into any of them horrible situations again.

"But it's happened and I've got to live with it and if I couldn't cope with living with it I would have ended the relationship."

She also said she has "moved on".

"It's not acceptable what he's done, but it's happened and that was in the stage of life we were in at the time but we've moved on," she said.

"I forgive him but it wasn't acceptable. If it comes up, we'd talk about it like we're talking about it now.

"I haven't got the anger I did at the time."

The couple met at school and now have four children together.
