Coleen Rooney has come out victorious in the blockbuster Wagatha Christie court case against Rebekah Vardy.
The decision marked the conclusion to the two-and-a-half year feud, which started in 2019 when Coleen, 36, said she had carried out a "sting operation" and accused Rebekah's account of leaking "false stories" about her private life to the press in the now viral Instagram post. But she added: "Nonetheless, the evidence … clearly shows, in my view, that Mrs Vardy knew of and condoned this behaviour, actively engaging in it by directing Ms Watt to the private Instagram account, sending her screenshots of Mrs Rooney’s posts, drawing attention to items of potential interest to the press, and answering additional queries raised by the press via Ms Watt.
The trial was packed full of designer outfits, Coleen hobbling to court in a plastic boot and some explosive revelations as both sides left no stone of the WAGs' lives unturned. The judge added: “Nevertheless, I find that it is, unfortunately, necessary to treat Mrs Vardy’s evidence with very considerable caution.
From marriage troubles in the Rooney household, to Rebekah fearing she would lose her unborn baby after the Wagatha Christie post went public, both rivals poured their hearts out as they took to the stand during the trial. The Liverpudlian mother-of-four said at the time: "She has got no need to talk about me or my Instagram. I wouldn’t even know what Caroline Watt looked like. I have never spoken to her, never met her.
Rebekah denied the accusations and spoke on the stand about her regrets over her comparing Peter Andre's manhood to a "chipolata" during her 2004 interview with News Of The World. Mrs Justice Steyn said there was a "degree of self-deception" on Rebekah's part in her role in leaking the information, stating that her "indignation at the accusation" stems from a combination of factors.
PR agent Caroline had been due to give evidence in support of Rebekah, but she withdrew her evidence before the trial, with the court told this was due to health concerns.
