after carrying out a months-long ‘sting operation’ which received peak reaction from people on social media.claimed her fellow footballer’s wife shared fake stories she had deliberately posted on her personal Instagram account with the newspaper.
Representing Vardy, Hugh Tomlinson QC said sections of the defence around Vardy’s relationship with The Sun newspaper, including her alleged but denied authorship of The Secret Wag column, are not relevant to the trial. The barrister argued that the central issue was whether Vardy was leaking posts from Rooney’s Instagram and that the other issues would not be necessary.
The move to throw out part of the defence was opposed by Rooney, with her barrister David Sherborne arguing that the ‘exceptionally close relationship’ Vardy is said to have had with newspaper is a key part of the case.In written submissions, Sherborne said Vardy had a ‘habitual practice’ of providing private information to the press to promote her profile.
The barrister later claimed that Vardy would receive a split of commission and revenue for stories given to The Sun through the Front Row Partnership, a PR agency where Vardy was a client.On Friday, the High Court also heard that mediation took place between the two WAGS, but was unsuccessful.
