Another day, another bikini for newlywed Coleen McLoughlin, who was yet again spotted lounging by the pool of a Las Vegas resort yesterday with Wayne Rooney. The tanned 22-year-old slipped on a strapless pink bikini for the afternoon and this time showed off her blinding diamond wedding ring - estimated to be worth £250,000 - after safely stashing it away a day earlier.

Dazzling: Coleen proudly shows off her diamonds to a fellow guest Between chats with her new husband, the 22-year-old flicked through a copy of Rhonday Byrnes' popular self-help book, The Secret, which promises 'unlimited happiness, love, health and prosperity' to followers of its philosophy. Yesterday Wayne was spotted letting his close cropped hair down, puffing on a very cheeky cigarette while taking a dip with his wife. The move is likely to incur the wrath of his authoritarian manager Sir Alex Ferguson, especially considering he was seen smoking on his stag weekend in full view of hundreds of Ibiza clubbers.

Thirsty work: Wayne keeps himself well refreshed One young fan who watched as the England star puffed on three cigarettes in quick succession was less than impressed and said: 'He's supposed to be a super fit athlete so you don't expect him to be drawing on a fag and knocking back booze like this.' Dr Keith Prowse, chairman of the British Lung Foundation, said: 'As a professional athlete has to work so hard to be at peak fitness, it is surprising that they would do something to damage or decrease that fitness. 'If he wants to maintain that peak level, Rooney would be wise to give up.'
Self-help: Coleen flicked through a copy of The Secret Wayne and Coleen have been lapping up all the sights and sounds of the party city, including a trip to a George Michael concert at the city's MGM Grand hotel. The newlyweds - who exchanged vows in Portofino, Italy earlier this month - posed for pictures with fellow concertgoers. Wayne and Coleen are said to have danced hand-in-hand for nearly two hours as George, 44, belted out a string of hits including Careless Whisper and I’m Your Man. A source told The Sun: 'He and Coleen loved it, they stayed right until the end. A lot of American celebrities who were there left early. But Wayne and Coleen were happy to pose for pictures and sign autographs.'

Just married: The couple didn't sign a pre-nup before walking down the aisle, according to sources After the gig the 22-year-olds - with Coleen wearing an elegant ivory silk dress and gold earrings - apparently spent time in Vegas nightclub Tryst, which has a 90ft waterfall and a lake in the middle of its two dancefloors. A source said: 'They couldn't keep their hands off each other. To most people, they were just a normal young couple in love, but a few Brits spotted him and began chanting, "Rooney, Rooney". 'He was telling people how much he was enjoying being married.' Sources have revealed the pair didn't did not invest in a pre-nuptial agreement, deciding against the legal arrangement because they didn’t want to be ‘unromantic

..but Wayne can't help but dampen wife Coleen's ardour The childhood sweethearts, both 22, who have been dating since they were at school, dismissed the idea out of hand, according to family friends. ‘We asked Wayne if he was going to arrange to have something in place to protect his fortune but he said it was not something he and Coleen had talked about,’ says a friend. ‘Coleen was also against the idea and said she thought it was terribly unromantic and neither of them wanted their day to be overshadowed by a legal document that would determine what would happen if they split up.’ Coleen earns millions of pounds in her own right but considerably less than Manchester United star Wayne, who can expect about £100million in income over his playing career. Now she would potentially be entitled to half of his vast salary and a share of his earnings should the marriage break down. The source added: ‘It never occurred to him that he should think about protecting his assets. 'He’s quite old-fashioned about things and thinks what’s his is now hers.’
