Fans of Wayne and Coleen Rooney can't believe they have teenage son as Kai turns 13

Proud parents Wayne and Coleen Rooney celebrated a special landmark today as their eldest son turned 13.

The couple's first born Kai became a teenager and the proud mum and dad took to social media to share special birthday wishes for their boy, writes The Manchester Evening News.

Taking to Instagram, Coleen wished her eldest a happy birthday by sharing a sweet snap of the two of them smiling widely on holiday. Coleen looked tanned in a green shirt and matching shorts, alongside the birthday boy who is just about the same height as his mum, and she wrote: "My boy is a teenager today…..Happy Birthday @kairooney.10 I’m so proud of you."

Fans were in total disbelief that the couple now have a teenager. One wrote: "Wow a teenager already that's flown by happy 13th birthday Kai." Another added: "Happy birthday kai I remember him being born as I was heavily pregnant and he's just older than my boy!"

And Kai's proud dad, former footballer Wayne Rooney, also paid a tribute to his eldest on his birthday, he wrote: "Happy 13th Birthday @kairooney.10. Teenager,"

Kai Rooney is certainly following in his famous dad's footsteps and earlier this year signed a sportswear sponsorship deal with Puma at the age of 12.
