Rebekah Vardy's 'two-faced' gesture to Coleen Rooney as she's 'determined to have final say'

Five years on after the notorious Wagatha Christie scandal, the two WAGs have been back in court again for a face-off over .

Despite the scouse star, wife of , winning her high-profile defamation case against fellow WAG , Rebekah has always protested her innocence, denying she ever leaked false stories about Coleen's private life - and even sent several messages of support before the first story leak.

But now she has lost again, as a court ruled this week that the Wagatha Christie legal following an appeal by Rebekah, who had to pick up the majority of Colleen's bill.

Coleen let the in on her scheme to get to the bottom of the matter in a dramatic reveal shared on social media in 2019. Taking to , and , Coleen, then 34, wrote: "I have saved and screenshotted all the original stories which clearly show just one person has viewed them. It's… Rebekah Vardy's account."

Rebekah, who was instructed to cover 90 per cent of Coleen's costs, disputed the "sheer magnitude" of the charges and lost. But according to the 42-year-old is reportedly , 38. A source said: "Becky can't help herself and she is determined to get the final say in all of this.

"She is still furious that the judge ruled in Coleen's favour initially, as she insists she didn't do it. She's upset at this latest ruling, but she's not letting it get her down as she's determined Coleen and her team won't get away with this," adding that there's more to come from Becky's corner.

Amid Coleen's bombshell Disney+ documentary, , the mum revealed how Rebekah rushed to her aid when scandal broke around her marriage, with Wayne's antics hitting the headlines. In the docu-series, she said how she was made to believe that Rebekah was a genuine friend who understood the pressure of being in the spotlight.

Reflecting on what happened, she claimed: "Throughout that day I was getting messages saying are you ok? It was my private account so it was just people letting me know that they were there if I needed them. Rebekah got in touch. I thought it was a nice message. I thought she was just being caring and sympathising because she'd been in the public eye as well."

The message apparently read: "If you ever just want to get away with the kids you're more than welcome at mine Hun....you can have our annex!" Coleen then replied saying: "Thank you, that's really thoughtful....I'm at my mum's at the minute." Rebekah responded saying: "Offer is always there if you need me."

According to Coleen, who married Wayne in 2008, it was after this exchange that Rebekah leaked her first story. After a series of leaked information to the press, Coleen then posted a warning on her social media account telling her private followers that she had realised someone had been selling stories on her to the press and asked them to stop.

Rebekah then reportedly messaged her again to say: "Omg wtf is wrong with people!" Rebekah made it seem as though a journalist may have accessed her Instagram account without her knowing - but Coleen had no idea that Rebekah was in fact the culprit.

Coleen said: "We were in the same in a way. We both are married to footballers, both in the public eye and it made sense to me that she knew what the press were capable of. So Rebekah's message did make me feel a bit paranoid in a way." The wife of Jamie Vardy sued Coleen but lost. The judge found it likely that Rebekah had been the one to leak the stories.

Coleen said: "Throughout the trial I kept silent because I was under oath, and still to this day I haven't said anything. I feel like everyone else has had their say about the court case and how it all began. But for me to move on in life and especially in the public eye I just feel that it's right that I have my say as well, and tell the story in my own words how it was - from beginning to end."

Coleen's tell-all documentary not only discusses the case itself but also explores how Coleen has had her life played out in public for the last 20 years, especially surrounding her relationship with one of the most famous footballers in England's history, Wayne Rooney.
