A fortnight ago, we reported that poor old Coleen Rooney had had to deny rumours that she was pregnant, telling fans on Twitter that she’d simply “put weight on”.
At the time, she seemed to take it in good spirits, tweeting that she was “on holiday again” enjoying “lovely restaurants and great food!!!”.
But a couple of weeks on, the mother-of-three has really come out fighting.
In an interview with the Mail Online, Coleen, 31, slammed her critics, saying they are “probably a lot heavier than I am”.
“It would hurt me if it came from someone that’s important to me, like friends or family,” she said.
“But the people who are criticising me are probably a lot heavier than I am, so it doesn’t bother me any more.
“There’s probably someone who’s 20 stone who’s judging me online, so I just ignore it.”

Coleen once released an exercise DVD (under her maiden name) – Coleen McLoughlin’s Brand New Body Workout – which turned out to be a bestseller.
But she’s since had three kids – Kai, seven, Klay, four, and Kit, one – with her husband, footballer Wayne Rooney.
And in a recent interview with Now magazine, she admitted that her priorities have now changed.
“The more children I’ve had, I’ve been in less of a rush to get back in shape, because after three births, your body is going to change,” she said.
“I think once you’ve had kids, they’re more important than how you look. It’s not the end of the world – you just have to be confident.”
But she’s still clearly in no mood to let her detractors get away with their finger-pointing.
“I don’t understand why someone would make negative comments criticising someone’s body,” she told the Mail Online.
“It used to annoy me when I was younger, but I learned to just ignore it. It’s not worth it.”

Earlier this year, Coleen tweeted a picture of herself at a fitness studio, and enjoying a healthy smoothie afterwards.
But she’s also been an advocate for imperfect figures – she once fronted an ITV programme called Coleen’s Real Women, where she looked for ‘real’ women to front advertising campaigns, as opposed to models.
