‘But it’s not all smooth sailing and there was clearly still a bit of tension. Everyone was letting their hair down, having a laugh and few drinks but it was obvious Kyle is still in the dog house.
‘There weren’t particularly lovey dovey but it’s a step in the right direction for them as a couple.’
The Rooney’s welcomed friends including commentator Darren Fletcher, Middlesbrough coach Michael Carrick, Everton’s Jordan Pickford and former Aston Villa manager Steve Bruce to their £20million mansion.
They also extended the invitation to members of Girth N Turf FC, who are one of the virtual EA Sports FC 24 Pro Clubs.
It comes after it was reported that Kyle is said to be considering ditching Manchester City and the Premier League in favour of a move to Saudi Arabia at the end of the season, according to The Sun.
The City star was in talks with Bayern Munich over a potential exit last year before signing a new contract extension that keeps him at the reigning Premier League and European champions until 2026.
The media storm focusing on his relationship could pave the way for a summer departure from European football and the City full-back has been in discussion with former team-mate Riyad Mahrez over moving to the Middle East.
Riyad joined Saudi Pro League side Al Ahli after winning the Treble under Pep Guardiola and has been offering expert guidance to Walker on life in the nation.
He moved there with wife Taylor Ward and their young daughter last year, with the former initially upset at leaving England in favour of Saudi Arabia.

Taylor later claimed she felt more comfortable after seeing popular food chain Nandos had premises in the country.
Should Kyle depart then he would be the highest-profile England player to move to the league – who are continuing their approach of attracting top talent by offering huge salaries.
Jordan Henderson previously left the Premier League for Saudi Arabia last year before later returning to Europe with Ajax in January.
Kyle is understood to be ‘very happy’ at City as they continue their quest for a record-breaking fourth consecutive Premier League title and prepare to take on derby rivals Man United in the FA Cup final for the second season in a row.
His wife, Annie, is also reportedly in favour of departing England in search of a fresh start overseas, sources reportedly told The Sun.
Conversations with Riyad are said to have focused primarily on the different clubs in the Saudi Pro League and the lifestyle for foreign players moving to the oil-rich kingdom.
Kyle was delighted with the information he was given by his former colleague and will be weighing up all available options once the season has concluded.
His departure would mark a huge blow for Guardiola who masterminded the player’s move to the Etihad from Tottenham in 2017 for an initial £47m.

Kyle’s rep told MailOnline: ‘Kyle, like many footballers, has considered his career after the Premiere League and England commitments. Conversations about a move were in relation to his future and not something he is considering any time soon. He is immensely proud to captain his club and play for his country’.
Meanwhile MailOnline also revealed on Friday that Kyle has returned to live in the family home just four months after he was kicked out by his wife.
Annie was heavily pregnant at the time with their fourth child when she heard the shocking news of her husband’s infidelity. Kyle was ordered to pack his bags and leave their £3.5 million mansion in Prestbury, Cheshire.
He relocated to a home close by, paying £20,000 per month rent as the couple’s marriage hit the rocks.
But a source told MailOnline: ‘Kyle is now living back with the Annie and the kids as they try and put their difficulties behind them and get their marriage back on track.
‘She needs a lot of help around the house and a lot of emotional support. Kyle’s very happy that he’s back in the family home but things are still very strained between them.’
The source added that Annie and Manchester City and England star Walker are sleeping in separate bedrooms, but he has been doing more household chores than previously, such as the school run and also tidying up.

The source said: ‘It would be an understatement to say that he needs to get back into Annie’s good books and he’s doing his best by making himself more useful around the house. But there are people within her circle who feel that she’s taken him back too quickly.
‘But her hormones are all over the place and she’s decided that its worth putting in the effort to save their marriage. A lot of women wouldn’t have done this but at the end of the day, it’s her choice.’
Kyle is continuing to pay rent on the property he moved into after leaving the family home, even though he is never there.
Annie, 30 gave birth last month with the Manchester City and England footballer by her side.
The past few months have been a rollercoaster for Annie, after she discovered in December last year that her sportsman husband had fathered a second child with Lauryn with Walker moving out of their home a few weeks later in January.
Prior to the arrival of their fourth child, who they plan to name Rezon, the couple also share sons Roman, 11, Riaan, seven, and Reign, five.
