Wayne Rooney and wife Coleen have returned to the UK today just days after the footballer was caught up in another storm over late night partying with two women.
The couple arrived this morning at Manchester Airport after flying in from Washington DC as part of their plans to move their family back to Britain.
Wayne will join Derby County in the new year but it is understood Coleen is bringing their four children home first to move back into their £20million Cheshire mansion.
The couple were seen back on British soil earlier today and were ushered into a waiting car with their luggage by airport staff.
And Coleen, 33, was pictured with her wedding rings back on after being seen without the bands in recent days - fuelling speculation about the state of their marriage amid claims Wayne, also 33, was seen chatting to women in a nightclub in Vancouver earlier this month.

Rooney was pictured on a night out with women in Vancouver earlier this month but said on Twitter that a woman he was seen speaking to in a nightclub was a fan asking for an autograph (left); and denied getting into a lift with a woman in a hotel lobby (right)
Coleen was happy to take a seat in the back of the seven-seater vehicle and was soon joined by her husband
Wayne carried a small dark suitcase and is not expected to move the majority of his belongings until later this year
It comes after they were seen packing a car with boxes outside their Washington DC mansion before driving to the city's Dulles International Airport to board their flight yesterday.
Coleen is moving their four sons - Kai, nine, Klay, six, Kit, three, and Cass, one - to the UK ahead of Wayne's move to Derby County in the new year following the end of the Major League Soccer season.
Rooney will continue playing for DC United, with whom he has a £10million contract, until at least October.
It comes after Rooney released a statement yesterday, angrily hitting back at reports he got into a hotel lift with a mystery woman after a night out.
The footballer was spotted in a hotel lobby with the woman after seven hours of partying in Vancouver, Canada, earlier this month, when he was also seen with his arms around a woman in a nightclub.
Responding to the reports on Twitter, he wrote: 'Nothing happened between me and any girl on that night in Vancouver. I did not enter the lift alone with the girl pictured in the hotel foyer.
Coleen has spent several months in the US capital after her husband signed for the Washington club in 2018, but now wants to bring the family home
'The girl pictured in the club was simply one of many who innocently asked for photographs and pictures.'
Meanwhile a removal van was pictured at the couple's DC mansion yesterday with half a dozen boxes containing large suitcases arriving ready to be packed with their belongings - believed to be mainly clothes.
A source close to the couple told MailOnline: 'Wayne and Coleen are preparing to move back to the UK. They are getting things ready.
'But there is absolutely no suggestion that Wayne won't finish his contract with DC United in the States.
'He will continue to play for the club until the end of the season, which will be at least until the beginning of October, but hopefully longer if they make the play-offs.
'Then he will start with Derby County on January 1. The family will all then live permanently in their new home in the Cheshire.'
The delivery is understood to have been ordered by Coleen so she can pack up her clothes and take them back to the UK.
Reports surfaced recently that father-of-four vowed to go teetotal and have counselling to help him stay dry in a bid to save his marriage. He's been with Coleen (pictured together in July) since they were teenagers, and they've been married 10 years

She is known to be an avid shopper and has a collection of designer clothes.
By taking her belongings home in suitcases she avoids having to ship them back in a crate in a process that can take up to two months.
The cardboard boxes stamped with the Samsonite brand name were dropped off while Rooney was at training.
Children's high chairs and cots were also seen being loaded into a removal van.
Rooney's agent Paul Stretford was also pictured at the house – with sources close to the star saying he was there to tie up loose ends from his £10 million DC United contract.
