Coleen Rooney changes bag after C.M monogrammed tote

She was forced to defend herself after she was spotted lapping up the sun beside a personalised handbag which was emblazoned with the letters ‘C.M’. 

And Coleen Rooney made sure she didn’t make the same mistake as she was pictured toting a different designer handbag as she headed through Barbados’ Grantley Adams International Airport.

Despite the recent controversy surrounding her marriage to footballer Wayne Rooney, the expectant mother-of-three appeared in high-spirits as she sauntered through the terminal.

Coleen Rooney made sure to change her accessories after she was pictured sporting a designer handbag with her maiden initials recently

Proving maternity clothes needn’t mean scrimping on style, Coleen was stylishly clad in a billowing pink T-shirt, which boasted pretty silver embellishments along the arms.

She paired the number with skinny jeans and summery floral sliders, injecting a touch of opulence into her look with an array of designer luggage bags.

Once again noticeably missing from her look however was the pregnant star’s wedding ring.

Coleen no doubt thought her choice of bags through after she caused quite the furore by sitting next to a handbag embossed with the initials she had before her marriage to Wayne.

Brushing off the controversy, the Liverpool native later cleared up the confusion on Twitter, writing: ‘Stories, stories, stories My mums initials are CM …. not my bag!!!’ 

Coleen, 31, has been spending the half-term holidays with sons Kai, Klay and Kit in the Caribbean after weeks of disarray in their family following her embattled husband’s drink-driving scandal after a night out with party girl Laura Simpson. 

Reaching out? Coleen appears to be thawing towards her embattled husband Wayne as he spent his 32nd birthday alone - allegedly sending him a message from his three sons as they holiday in Barbados without him

Despite being spotted without her wedding ring for several weeks, The Sun claims Coleen reached out to her husband of nine years on Instagram on behalf of their three sons.

She wrote: ‘We love you so much Dad! Thank you for all that you do for us.’ 

It comes after Wayne looked downcast as he arrived at Everton’s Finch Farm training ground in Merseyside on Tuesday – the day of his 32nd birthday.

He managed to flash a thumbs up, attempting to make the best of things as he focused on his sporting career.

The brunette, who has been married to Wayne for 10 years, is currently expecting her fourth child with the sports star.

Her comment appeared to suggest the brunette beauty isn’t finished with her marriage – despite not wearing her wedding ring during her beach break. 

MailOnline has contacted the star’s representatives for comment.

The couple’s marriage has been on the rocks since Wayne was caught drink driving in Cheshire, with fellow party-goer Laura Simpson in the passenger seat as he drove her Beetle back from a club after she claimed they ‘kissed and cuddled’.

Last month, the legendary footballer pleaded guilty to driving while over the limit before embarking on 100 hours unpaid work.

He has been defiantly keeping his wedding ring in place despite Coleen’s frequent appearances without her own band.

No ring: Coleen recently hinted she is focusing on the arrival of her fourth child after 'ditching' her wedding band following marital strife with his scandalous arrest in late August

Coleen recently hinted she is focusing on the arrival of her fourth child after ‘ditching’ her wedding band following marital strife with his scandalous arrest in late August.

At the time of his arrest, it was reported she flew back from Spain with their three children and reportedly screamed at him: ‘The world is laughing at me because of you. How could you do this to me while I’m pregnant? How could you be so stupid?’

Speaking to The Sun, an insider revealed Coleen is ‘still very angry’ but feels she and her boys should not be punished by his actions and therefore went ahead with her seventh holiday in ten months.

Now it seems she is ready to jet away once more, as insiders said: ‘She is still very angry at Wayne. But she doesn’t see why she or the children should suffer.

Hitting back: Wayne's outing comes as Coleen hit back after pictures emerged of her with a Louis Vuitton that seemed to be embossed with the initial of her maiden name, 'M' for McLoughlin, instead of 'R' for husband Wayne's surname - suggesting she was no longer going by her married name

‘Ultimately, her boys are off school and she wants to take them away so they can enjoy some sun. She works hard and hasn’t done anything wrong.’

The mother of three has already been on various holidays this year, including Barbados, Ibiza, Portugal, Greece and Spain and it was previously claimed Wayne has accused her of spending too much time away from the family home.

In September it was alleged that Wayne gave Coleen an ultimatum, telling her he would give up booze if she decided to cut back on her trips abroad – an attempt from his part to save his marriage after he was charged with drink driving while in the car with another woman.

Meanwhile, Laura, from Irlam, Greater Manchester, said that she would have had sex with the footballer if they had not been stopped by police.

The lettings agent worker, 29, said the pair had ‘kissed and cuddled’ and she would have ‘s******’ him if he had not been pulled over by the police.

Laura, a single mother of one, also told MailOnline that she would have slept with Rooney if he had not been arrested behind the wheel of her VW Beetle car in the early hours of the morning.
