Wayne Rooney Stuns Football Legends with His Surprising Bedtime Habit of Sleeping with a Hairdryer Blowing in His Face

Wayne Rooney, the former football star, recently left his fellow football personalities completely shocked with an unexpected admission about his bedtime habits.

In a recent episode of the Stick To Football podcast, the 39-year-old revealed something that most wouldn’t expect: he sleeps with a hairdryer blowing in his face to help him sleep.

The surprising confession left fellow guests Gary Neville, Ian Wright, and Roy Keane stunned as they tried to comprehend Wayne’s bizarre sleep routine.

The Unusual Sleep Habit That Stunned His Co-Hosts

Wayne’s revelation came after Gary Neville recalled a time back in 2003 when Wayne had trouble being woken up for his first England squad meeting.

Gary explained that they had to get a spare key from reception because Wayne was fast asleep in his hotel room.

This led Wayne to reveal why he often needs a hairdryer to help him sleep.

“I’ve done that a few times where I’ve fallen asleep, I like to have a sleep in the afternoons as well,” Wayne shared.

“When I go to sleep, I sleep with the hair dryer on blowing in my face…”

This admission sparked laughter from Ian Wright, who asked, “The hot hair dryer?” but Wayne clarified that he prefers the cold air.

Why Wayne’s Bedtime Routine is a Problem for Hotels

As Wayne continued to explain, this strange habit sometimes becomes an issue when he stays in hotels.

“Sometimes that blanks the alarm and I sleep through,” he said, referring to how the hairdryer can block the sound of the alarm.

Ian, clearly baffled, asked if Wayne needs the “white noise” the hairdryer provides, to which Wayne confirmed, “I still have it now.

So when I’m in a hotel on my own, I have a hair dryer on.”

The conversation then took an interesting turn as Ian asked if Wayne uses apps for sleep instead, to which Wayne responded, “I’ve tried all different things, I’ve tried the apps, I’ve tried everything.”

Wayne’s Hairdryer: A Constant Companion

The football legend went on to clarify the importance of the hairdryer’s proximity.

“It’s right in front of my face,” he confirmed.

Shocked by the dedication, Roy Keane asked if Wayne keeps the hairdryer on all night, to which Wayne confirmed with a simple “Yes.”

This routine is certainly an unusual one, leaving his co-hosts speechless as they tried to understand why this quirky habit helps Wayne sleep.

A Career Change on the Horizon for Wayne Rooney

In a shift from his football career, Wayne Rooney has found himself facing a new role: house husband.

It was recently reported that Wayne would be taking on more family responsibilities this year, as his wife Coleen, 38, has been receiving multiple TV offers following her success on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! where she finished in second place.

Wayne, who was sacked from his role as Plymouth Argyle manager after only 25 matches, is reportedly heading back to Cheshire to join Coleen and their children after a tough managerial stint.

Coleen Rooney’s Rising TV Career

While Wayne’s football career has taken a hit, Coleen’s career seems to be on the rise.

She’s reportedly been considering a variety of “very attractive” TV offers, with potential shows involving her alongside famous hosts like Lorraine Kelly and Holly Willoughby.

A source close to the couple revealed that although Coleen is saddened by Wayne’s departure from Plymouth, she’s optimistic about the new opportunities ahead.

“Every cloud has a silver lining,” the source said, noting that Wayne’s presence at home would allow Coleen to fully explore her career options.

Wayne’s Support for Coleen’s Career

The source also shared that Coleen is looking forward to spending more time with Wayne and their four children: Kai, 15, Klay, 11, Kit, eight, and Cass, six.

“Wayne’s football career has always taken precedence, but it seems like it’s now Coleen’s time to shine,” the source added.

After years of supporting Wayne’s career, it seems the tables may have turned, with Coleen preparing to take on new professional challenges while Wayne supports her from home.

Despite her previous reluctance to pursue TV work due to the demands of motherhood, Coleen is now ready to embrace new opportunities, having said that her children are “a little bit older” and she feels comfortable being away from them for a while.

With several TV deals on the table, it seems that 2025 could be the year Coleen steps into the spotlight.
