“The Real Rooneys” Coming Soon To Disney+

After the huge success of the original series, “Coleen Rooney: The Real Wagatha Story”, Disney has announced that a brand new British documentary show called “The Real Rooneys” will be coming soon to Disney+ and Hulu.

In the 10-episode series, Coleen and Wayne Rooney have invited cameras into their home for a pivotal year in their lives. It’s all change as Wayne steps away from football management, swapping the touchline for school runs, while Coleen embraces the biggest opportunities of her career, including designing her own Primark range. 

With unprecedented access, we follow the family through the highs and lows of married life, raising four lively boys, and supporting eldest son Kai as he pursues his own footballing dream. Along the way come surprising personal revelations, career-defining moments, lavish celebrations and unforgettable family holidays. From their Cheshire home to the beaches of Barbados and the snowy Alps, this is Britain’s most famous and private family as never seen before: warm, funny and authentic. 

This new Hulu Original series from the UK will premiere on 24th September 2026, with the first eight episodes, with a further two special episodes, becoming available to stream on 1st October 2026. 

“The Real Rooneys” is executive produced by Julian Bird, Paul Stretford, and Ashley Smith for Lorton Entertainment, and Danny Horan and Tanya Winston for Blast Films. The Series Director is Martin Webb and Nonuk Walter serves as showrunner. The series was commissioned in the UK by Sean Doyle, Vice President, Unscripted for Disney+.  

Roger’s Take: With the success of “Coleen Rooney: The Real Wagatha Story”, it shouldn’t come as a huge surprise that Disney has continued its relationship with this popular British couple, especially as it tries to build out its international content lineup to appeal to more local audiences.
