Hamish and Dana Thompson broke their silence following allegations that their 21-year-old daughter Jennifer regularly had sex with the England striker while Coleen, 24, was pregnant.
Mr Thompson said: "This may sound somewhat hollow, but my wife and I would never condone what has or may have happened."
The couple said in their statement that the last few days had been "extremely trying" for them and their family.
"Following the various newspaper articles concerning our daughter Jennifer, we would like to offer our most sincere apologies to Coleen Rooney and her family," the Thompsons said.
"We had absolutely no idea about any of the allegations and claims that have been made. Jennifer is our daughter and we love her and we will deal with this matter as a family, not via the media."
Mr Thompson, who has been described as a leading petroleum engineering expert, lives with his wife in Bolton. They have three sons Alexander, Charlie and Max.
There has been a continuing stream of allegations about Rooney's private life since the claims about Ms Thompson, a former public schoolgirl who became a £1,200-a-night prostitute known as Juicy Jeni.
Rooney last night managed to put the negative headlines behind him to score the opening goal against Switzerland, which helped England to a 3-1 win in their Euro 2012 qualifier, but today faced reports that he paid Ms Thompson and her friend Helen Wood, 23, to join him in a threesome at a Manchester hotel.
Rooney remained inside his mansion in Prestbury, Cheshire, and is said to be preparing to meet his wife for crisis talks.
