Coleen Rooney heads out for a gym session amid I'm A Celeb news
by Laura Parkin For Mailonline · Mail OnlineColeen Rooney wrapped up in a padded coat as she headed to the gym on Wednesday after it was revealed she could be excluded from I'm A Celebrity trials.
The WAG, 38, is reportedly among the stars set to move into the famous camp in Australia later this month, after being paid a record sum by ITV bosses.
Carrying on with her daily routine in Cheshire, Coleen got in a early morning work out session ahead of her jungle stint.
She looked sporty in a pair of black leggings that she teamed with an electric blue quarter zip jumper.
The TV personality topped off her outfit with coordinating trainers and a matching water bottle.
Coleen's outing come amid reports she could reportedly be ruled out of a string of I'm A Celebrity challenges, due to a recent health issue.
While viewers will be hoping that the WAG gets to tackle some of the show's Bushtucker Trials, sources have now revealed that the star could be exempt from some, as she has reactive arthritis, which affects the joints and is set off by stress.
Coleen previously shared that she suffered a crippling bout of the condition due to the stress of her Wagatha Christie legal battle with Rebekah Vardy.
It's thought that ITV medics will help to ease Coleen's symptoms if she suffers a flare-up during her time in the jungle.
A source told The Sun: 'The duty of care on I'm A Celeb is second to none and over the years the cast have been ruled out of challenges for a string of different reasons.
'Some might have seemed trivial to viewers but the health and happiness of the celebs is of execs' utmost concern. Coleen's reactive arthritis being triggered by stress means execs want to wrap her in cotton wool and keep her happy and healthy.'
'The condition is currently under control so at this stage it's a ''could be'' ruled out rather than a ''will be''. But her physical health will be monitored and, if she suffers a flare-up, her ability to perform each trial will be considered on a case-by-case basis.'
MailOnline has contacted representatives for Coleen Rooney and ITV for comment.
Reactive arthritis is a condition that can cause causes redness and swelling (inflammation) in various joints in the body, especially the knees, feet, toes, hips and ankles.
It can develop after an infection, but can also be triggered by stress.
In her Disney+ documentary last year, Coleen claimed the 'intense' anxiety caused by the Wagatha Christie court case triggered her illness.
The TV personality was sued for libel by Jamie's wife Rebekah, 41, with a nine-day trial ultimately resulting in Coleen's favour.

She said: 'It caused anxiety and there were lots of tears. I have reactive arthritis. I've had it previously but this situation brought it on a lot more.
'It stripped me of my character and I didn’t want to socialise with people. I was completely in my own world. It was not a nice place to be.'
The WAG continued: 'It hit home just how low I was at that time. My emotions really came out and that made the interview process quite intense, but then it was also a good chance to reflect.
'I stuck to my guns from beginning to end. My story never changed from day one, and I was telling the truth.'
Coleen is rumoured to be earning at least £1.5million for signing up to the ITV primetime hit hosted by Ant and Dec, with the move said to be the 'ultimate revenge' on her rival because Rebekah was booted out early in the 2017 series.
But while Coleen knows ITV wants her to 'spill more beans' about the Wagatha Christie case and their rivalry, she will have been carefully coached by her lawyers about what she can and can't say before she enters the jungle, Mr Ede says.
'100% Rebekah will not be happy that Coleen is going on the show', he said.
'She will be keeping her eyes and ears glued to the screen in case she can garner any nuggets from Coleen that could potentially defame her.
'Rebekah famously went in the jungle herself and for Coleen to be following in her footsteps will add insult to injury.
