But accounts show the business has debts of more than £120,000.
A liquidator was appointed in February after co-director Chilton Jenkins, 35, quit in December.
The news follows reports Coleen, 36, asked Anthony, 33, to chaperone Wayne in the States, where he is new manager of DC United.
Coleen is staying in Britain with kids Kai, 12, Klay, nine, Kit, six, and Cass, four.

A source said: “Anthony is extremely close to his sister so it’s a big surprise his business has struggled.
“It wasn’t for a lack of celebrity backing. Wayne promoted the gym on social media and recommended his mates check it out.
“They’ve done everything to try to make it a success, but it didn’t work out.”
Companies House figures show Liverpool’s Rise owes £122,600 — £71,000 in taxes, £50,000 to Barclays Bank and £1,600 to the Money Matters financial advice service.
