Coleen Rooney is going to have her baby at an NHS hospital, it has been reported.

She's apparently opting for Liverpool Women's Hospital, rather than going private.

Good for her. It's a mystery why celebrities go private to give birth - it's still going to hurt just the same wherever you have it. Shelling out £5,000 is just going to add to the pain.

A source told the Mirror: "The midwives here can't wait to help her through the birth.

"It is a tremendous fillip for all the dedicated and hard-working staff. They are really proud of LWH and overjoyed Coleen has opted to support them and the NHS."

Other WAGs have gone private, with Victoria Beckham, Louise Redknapp and Frank Lampard's partner Elen Rives all opting for London's Portland Hospital.

Coleen and Wayne's baby is due on October 24, the same date as Manchester United and England football star Wayne's 24th birthday.
