Wayne and Coleen Rooney could be set to make a cameo appearance in 'The Only Way Is Essex'.

The Manchester United football ace and his wife - who are said to be huge fans of the reality show - have reportedly been offered a role in the upcoming third series of the ITV2 programme.

It comes after Coleen told sisters Sam and Billie Faiers that 'TOWIE' is a firm favourite in the Rooney household, and she would love to visit their fashion boutique, Minnies, in Brentwood.

An insider told the Daily Star: "The girls were really thrilled to meet Coleen. She told them that she and Wayne love nothing more than cuddling up and watching them on the TV.

"The girls loved the fact that Coleen was very down to earth. And as fellow fashionistas, they gossiped for ages about clothes. Coleen told them she wants to come down to Essex and eye up all the latest designs at Minnies.

"Now the producers have got wind of the Rooney's being super fans and they want to extend an invie to them to come on the show. It would be quite a coup to have them pop up."

While Sam and Billie are keen to see Coleen and Wayne appear on 'The Only Way Is Essex', co-star Lydia Bright recently explained she would love Essex boy Russell Brand and his wife Katy Perry to feature on the show.

She exclusively told BANG Showbiz: "I think it would be quite funny if Russell Brand made a cameo appearance in the show because he's obviously an Essex boy as well - it would be a right laugh. He's be absolutely hilarious.

"You never know, he could get Katy Perry involved as well. She's a really big fan of 'The Only Way Is Essex'. When she did her tour she said on stage, 'Does anybody watch 'The Only Way Is Essex'? I love it'."
