Rooney is on holiday with his wife Coleen and their four boys, and went out for dinner with friends before posing for a photo with Tanya and another friend Laura.
At one point Tanya filmed Rooney wiping away blood from a gash on his forehead, which she described as “one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen in my life”.
Later everyone was all smiles as they danced in the restaurant arm in arm.
The family are on holiday with the MLS ending earlier this month.
They are believed to be staying at the five-star Mandarin Oriental in the Jumeirah Beach district, which costs £1,500-a-night, and Rooney is set to return to Washington DC to prepare for next season soon.
