Coleen Rooney channeled her sports star husband Wayne during last night’s test spin on I’m A Celebrity Cyclone.
WAG, 38, was among the eight remaining teammates who competed in the event to win a ticket that guarantees immunity from the next two votes, as well as a coveted spot in the epic final Cyclone challenge.
Following Wednesday’s episode, body language expert Judi James revealed that Danny Jones and Alan Halshall exhibited “aggressive arousal” as they headed into battle.
However, fan favorite Coleen stayed calm, reserved her energy and magnified her focus because she “knows what it’s like to win.”
Speaking to Paddy Power Games, Judi said: “Coleen, however, was standing with her hands clasped behind her back in a copycat ritual of football players before a big match.”
Comparing her work on the trial with that of her husband Wayne, 39, she added: ‘Like her husband in his heyday, her speed was incredible once she started the task.

“Coleen dismissed the bugs that were meant to scare them away as irrelevant with a quick shake of her head and the shots we got of her bespectacled face as she picked up the balls showed a constant smile that was almost cheerful, flashing Wayne. -Like enjoyment total of playing with high stakes.’
Judi nodded sweetly to Wayne’s supportive side, after he left Coleen crying over a message he sent her in the jungle.
She said: ‘He threw himself into the tank of fish guts with his hands and arms in a diving gesture to demonstrate total immersion techniques.
‘Wayne would have been proud of her and maybe a little intimidated too.
“Coleen may have gone into the task focused but, like all Premier League footballers, she knew the swagger and boasting should come after a win, not before.”
“She started with her hands behind her back, but ended with her hands on her hips and her legs spread in a confident victory pose that Wayne would have been proud of.”
On Tuesday’s episode of the ITV show, hosts Ant and Dec unexpectedly arrived at the camp for the second time that day.
They revealed that for the next two days the campmates would compete to win a ticket to the Cyclone test.

The campmates were divided into two groups to take part in their Bushtucker trials, as it was explained that there would be two winners from each group who would then face each other in Thursday’s trial to win a “golden ticket” to the final.
The first four celebrities to take on the Arcade of Agony were Danny Jones, GK Barry, Reverend Richard Coles and Coleen.
Meanwhile, Alan Halsall, Maura Higgins, Barry McGuigan and Oti Mabuse took part in a trial later in the episode.
Revealing the results at the end of the episode, Ant and Dec confirmed that Coleen, Danny, Maura and Oti won the most tickets and will therefore fight for immunity.
However, viewers have branded the immunity twist “manipulative” and criticized the decision, arguing it has given ITV the power to decide who is in the final.
After watching the first test, viewers also noticed that the tickets were not counted, so the winners were not revealed, as they suggested it was “rigged”.

Elsewhere in the trial, doctors were called into action after Coleen got a bug stuck in her ear.
When trial time was up, she came out of her cabin in shock and screamed: ‘I’ve got one in my ear!’
Medics were called in to take a closer look and safely removed it with a syringe, as the creature emerged from his ear.
The watching ant said: ‘My God! He just jumped!’
