Oh no! Coleen’s Twitter pregnancy announcement was FAKE

Oh. We’re a bit disappointed now. You know how the news broke at lunchtime that Coleen Rooney had announced her pregnancy via Twitter? Well, it now seems that the big news was nothing more than a hoax from an imposter who posted using her name. Grrrr. The message from the faux Coleen read: “Yes, I can confirm that baby Rooney is on the way... isn't it exciting. Thank you everyone, for the lovely messages”, but now Coleen’s spokesperson has said it’s totally fake. “That's definitely not Coleen,” they said. “It's a fake, she hasn't announced anything.” So, that’s not to say she isn’t pregnant, but if she is, she’s not ready to talk about it yet. Bloody Twitter, eh? She’s not the first star to fall victim to a fake profile on the site – Kanye West and David Bowie have both suffered similar incidents recently (although nobody was claiming they were pregnant – now that would be a story…).
