Caring Coleen Rooney’s plea for wedding guests to make donations to her sister’s hospice was answered by just FOUR of them.
Coleen and Wayne asked the 64 guests to help out instead of buying presents for the couple.
The stingy response from those at the £5million nuptials — which cost Coleen and Wayne £75,000-a-head — emerged yesterday as the hospice faced going bust.
Adopted sister Rosie, ten, who suffers from Rett syndrome and cannot walk, talk or feed herself, is among kiddies cared for round the clock at Claire House in Wirral, Merseyside.
Tragically, donations slumped after Coleen’s June wedding to Wayne in Italy because people thought the hospice was rolling in it.
But chief executive Karen Wright said they got just “four or five” wedding donations.
She said: “That came to about £2,000.”
The hospice needs £1million just to carry on.
A source close to Coleen, whose guests included Man U team-mates of fellow 22-year-old Rooney, said: “It’s a slap in the face to both her and Wayne.”
The couple’s spokesman said: “They’ve always been generous donors.”

thats sad news… that charity is close to coleen & waynes heart and they do alot for it! xxx
thats an easy problem to solve for coleen. she could donate a million herself seeing as she was able to spend 5 million on her wedding.
Thats disgusting… she spends 75,000 on each guest and their guests cant even donate anything?!
mayb now the guests will donate something upon hearing this sad news.
