Coleen Rooney ’s brother’s company has reportedly found itself in hard times as it goes into liquidation.
Anthony McLoughlin’s trendy gym is reportedly being wound up while its accounts reportedly show the business has debts of more than £120,000.
Rise Fitness Studio was a hit with famous footballers and even promoted by Anthony’s brother-in-law Wayne Rooney.
After co-director Chilton Jenkins quit in December last year, a liquidator was said to have been appointed in February.
The Liverpool-based gym will be “voluntarily wound up”, according to claims, but it is unclear when that will happen as the company’s website and social media accounts are still active.
A source told The Sun : “Anthony is extremely close to his sister so it’s a big surprise his business has struggled.
“It wasn’t for a lack of celebrity backing. Wayne promoted the gym on social media and recommended his mates check it out.
“They’ve done everything to try to make it a success, but it didn’t work out.“
Records on Companies House show the business owes £122,600 to £71,000 in taxes, £50,000 to Barclays Bank and £1,600 to the Money Matters financial advice service.
The liquidation comes as Anthony, 33, is due to chaperone Wayne, 36, in America where he is the new manager of DC United.
Elsewhere, Coleen will tell her side of the Wagatha Christie investigation and court case in a new three part TV series for Disney+.
The streaming giants confirmed at the Edinburgh TV Festival they had won the exclusive rights to work with Coleen, 36, and have given the show the working title of Wagatha Christie.
Coleen shared snaps of herself enjoying some time with her four children after she signed the multi-million pound deal.
Mum Coleen, 36, will reportedly out-earn her husband Wayne with the deal, which is said to be a "massive deal" for Coleen.
