imploded around Rebekah Vardy again last week when it emerged she’d have to pay 90 per cent of Coleen Rooney’s legal fees – meaning she owes her rival up to £1.5million. And Becky is going to need deep pockets, as her own payments are estimated to be more than £2million after losing the highly-publicised libel trial in July, taking her bill to around £3.7million.
The trial reached the High Court in May, and in July, the judge ruled that Coleen’s accusation was “substantially true”. Now the question turns to how the Vardys are going to fork out for such a hefty bill. Becky has been ordered by the court to pay the first £800,000 of the settlement to Coleen by 15 November, and even has to pay some of the costs incurred by seven journalists who were potential witnesses, but did not give evidence.
As the Vardys come to terms with a steep defeat, we’re told Coleen’s using the aftermath of Wagatha to channel her energies into her sons – Kai, 12, Klay, nine, Kit, six, and four-year-old Cass. Our insider reveals that the mum of four is exploring the momager avenue, particularly with her older son Kai, who is proving to be a chip off the old block with his impressive goalscoring for Manchester United Academy team.
