Three party girls who posed semi-naked in a hotel room with a sleeping Wayne Rooney have issued an apology to the footballer.
Brooke Morgan, Elise Melvin, both 21, and their pal Eleanor Hoggarth, who was also present, approached Rooney's lawyer, his spokesman said.
Snapchat model Tayler Ryan, 21, who appears in some of the pictures, was not among the girls who approached Rooney.
They have also handed over the copyright to him of the pictures showing them dancing around him scantily clad while he is slumped in a chair asleep.
A spokesman for Wayne Rooney said: 'The three girls who took the photographs contacted Wayne's lawyers and volunteered to hand over all pictures that were taken that night and the copyrights in them.
'They have also, at their own suggestion, made a written apology to him for the events that took place and the embarrassment caused.
'These were three decent young women who went for a night out. They did not expect Wayne to end up in their company and are remorseful about how things turned out with the pictures.
'They got carried away and did something they later regretted. They did not expect it to end up in the mainstream media after it was posted on social media and they decided to take steps to put things right.
'It would be wrong to say no money changed hands because when a contract is drawn up there must be a sum and in this case it was a nominal £1.
'They have fulsomely apologised because they wanted to do what they saw as the right thing and draw a line under the matter.'

The picture handover came as Rooney's £5million job with Derby County was on a knife edge over the leaked images of the star passed out in a hotel.
Ex-England skipper Wayne , 35, alleged to police he was blackmailed over the images of him with three 21-year-old women while fully-clothed and in a chair.
But Cheshire Police told MailOnline they had spoken to the 'person involved' who does not wish to 'take the matter any further', but sources close to Rooney said on Tuesday night that the footballer was 'surprised' the investigation had been dropped.
Now his club is said to be furious after Rooney was seen walking two women who later took viral pictures of him asleep to their hotel room at 5.15am last weekend, The Sun reports.
A source said: 'How can he lead a group of young men when he cannot appear to control himself in public during a night out? This type of behaviour hurts the club's reputation.'
Rooney has recently been at odds with the powers-that-be at cash-strapped Derby as the former England striker has demanded more investment in the team that stayed in the Championship only by the skin of their teeth on the last day of the season.
Rooney's future with the club is said to be '50-50', because 'as manager he must lead by example'.
Sources told MailOnline on Tuesday that the footballer was 'surprised' that police closed a probe into his £10,000 blackmail allegation over pictures of him fully-clothed asleep in a hotel room.
In footage taken by a fan he can be seen walking with two blondes - one of whom is believed to be Snapchat model Tayler Ryan - to their £50-a-night hotel after he partied with her and her friends Elise Melvin and Brooke Morgan at the exclusive Chinawhite nightclub.
Rooney's representatives told MailOnline they had made a formal complaint of blackmail to police, when social media was flooded with images of the night-out on Sunday.
But police told MailOnline they believe no offence was committed following the blackmail claims.
A spokesman said: 'On Monday 26 July Cheshire Constabulary received reports of a possible blackmail relating to a number of images circulating online.
'Officers have spoken to the person involved and are satisfied that no offences have taken place. The person involved has also stated that they do not wish to take the matter any further.'
Wayne's wife Coleen has refused to cut short her family holiday to Wales after the images were circulated online.
Coleen, 35, was seen on the beach in the Llyn Peninsula with their kids as the embarrassing photographs went viral on Sunday morning.
Ex-Manchester United ace Rooney, who is married to Coleen and has four sons with his childhood sweetheart, reportedly partied into the early hours of Sunday with three young women in their twenties
