The 26-year-old star has announced she and Manchester United player Wayne Rooney are expecting their second child together.

Coleen - who already has two-year-old son Kai with Wayne - is still in her first trimester and will give birth in May.

She tweeted: "A few people guessed, so news is out ha!! Me wayne and Kai are thrilled that we are expecting a new addition to our family around May time x.

"It`s still only early but bursting with excitement! Also wanted the news to come from us, before anyone else! (sic)"

Coleen has previously admitted she would love to have a large family.

She has said: "I`d like to have maybe three or four children. I`d be happy to be a full-time mum."

Coleen - who Wayne wed in Italy in 2008 after a five-year engagement - gave birth to Kai in October 2009 with her spouse by her side.

A source said at the time: "Wayne was a star with Coleen. He didn`t leave her side from the moment she came into the hospital.

"When Col gave birth, Wayne`s eyes welled up. As soon as he was handed the baby, the tears began."
