The good times showed no sign of ending on Sunday as Coleen and Wayne Rooney’s annual Caribbean beach break continued in Barbados.
But the family appeared to endure a rather different kind of break courtesy of 12-year old son Klay, whose right forearm was swaddled with bandages while they relaxed on a rented catamaran.
Despite nursing an injury, the youngster still managed to ride a jet-ski with his father as they cruised close to the Barbados coastline.
The family appeared to be letting their hair down after boarding Seaduced III, a 62 foot Lagoon 620 catamaran, in port city to Bridgetown – the island’s capital.
Coleen, Wayne and their four children travel to Barbados and their sprawling £5million holiday home every year.
The lavish home, which sleeps 14 people and includes an additional two-bedroom cottage in the grounds, is located on the island’s Royal Westmoreland estate, a resort so popular with northern celebrities that its Jasmine Ridge development is now unofficially known as the ‘Northern Quarter’.

Once a sugar plantation, it extends to 750 acres and has 225 privately owned villas and cottages, a clubhouse, restaurant, spa, private beach and a golf course.
The lavish £5 million villa was furnished by Coleen when it was built in 2010 and comes with five bedrooms, an infinity pool and breathtaking sea views.
Coleen and Wayne are understood to lease the property when they are not there, with rental fees costing as much as £25,000-a-week during high season.
Royal Westmoreland owner John Morphet said in 2017: ‘We have a very wide range of people here. We do have celebrities but once we come in through the gate we are all on the same level.
‘The owners are not starstruck, they leave each other alone. People don’t bother them, they just mix in.’
Venturing off the resort on Sunday, Coleen, 39, looked incredible in a strapless leopard print bikini with low-slung bottoms as she enjoyed drinks and laughs on the swanky vessel.
Her parents Colette and Tony have joined them on their holiday as well as retired footballers and Wayne’s ex-teammates Jonny Evans, Michael Carrick and Darren Gibson.
Keen to catch as many rays as possible, Coleen spent much of the day soaking up the sun while Wayne and her parents were seen taking cover.

The family boat cruise comes after Coleen marked her late sister Rosie’s anniversary by sharing a sweet snap of the teen, who passed away in 2013. She added a caption reading: ‘Another year since you left us Rosie. Keep watching over us’.
Rosie passed away aged 14 following her lifelong battle with Rett syndrome, a rare brain disorder that causes severe disabilities. The disorder affects physical movement and can bring about many different symptoms in each individual case.
She was taken in as a foster child by Coleen’s parents, bricklayer Tony and Colette, a former nursery nurse, when she was two.
Although they were aware she was disabled they did not know the full extent of her condition, which has no cure.
She was overseeing her brood on the fun-filled day, as she was spotted clutching a glass of wine while pointing into the water

In an exclusive article for The Mail on Sunday in 2006, Coleen wrote: ‘When Rosie arrived she could crawl, and even though she couldn’t use her hands that much she would handle toys on her play mat and she could eat.
‘But over a period of time she stopped crawling and lost what use of her hands she had. Then she started having problems swallowing her food.
‘It took pretty much a year for Rosie to be diagnosed and, looking back, I can see how much Mum pushed to find out what was wrong with her and to try to do what was best for her.’
