Rebekah Vardy says she no longer cares about Wagatha Christie trial and insists she ‘knows the truth’ after losing high court battle with Coleen Rooney

Rebekah Vardy has said she no longer cares about the Wagatha Christie trial and ‘knows the truth’.

In 2019, Coleen Rooney publicly accused Rebekah of leaking stories from her personal Instagram account to The Sun newspaper, leading to a High Court war, which saw Coleen reign victorious and Rebekah left with a £3m court fee.

However, writing in The Spectator, the mother-of-five, 41, insisted she has moved on from the trial that captivated the nation.

She wrote: ‘I certainly didn’t expect what became known as the ‘Wagatha Christie’ trial. If you care, you’ll know the details. If you don’t, I’ll spare you: thinking about it is a total waste of time and energy. All I’ll say is that I know the truth, as do many others.’

Rebekah, who was raised as a Jehovah’s Witness and didn’t celebrate Christmas a child, divulged her festive plans, saying she doesn’t plan on splashing out big on presents.

She wrote: ‘I go big on decorations, but not really on presents. The way I see it, the most precious gift is time spent with family.’

‘That’s what I’m most looking forward to. And that’s why you don’t have to be religious to say the words that even now make me feel a bit rebellious: Merry Christmas one and all.’

It comes after Coleen reflected on the ‘draining’ and ‘stressful’ Wagatha Christie trial in an interview on BBC Breakfast earlier this month.

Speaking about the Wagatha trial, Coleen admitted: ‘It was just draining and so stressful. It was the unknown going into it. 

‘I’d never been into court before, I’d never seen a courtroom before. I just didn’t know what to expect. It was all new and it was scary it was emotional.’

She went on to reveal that she was sitting by herself in the car when the judgement was handed out and detailed what her reaction was like after months of stressful waiting.

She said: ‘My phone started pinging saying “Congratulations, we’re so pleased for you.” 

‘It was a bit surreal. I was just sitting there on my own in the car. I didn’t know whether to celebrate or cry. I was a bit numb.

‘Since the verdict, the support’s been unbelievable. I’m grateful for that. When the verdict came out I thought it’s time for me to tell my story. It’s my story to tell.’

Her new book, My Account Coleen Rooney The Autobiography, tells the the Wagatha Christie libel battle from her side.

In her new publication, she gives fans an insight into the 2022 trial and also gives a ‘full account’ of her life, from her childhood to more recent events.

Coleen said she had no worries about sharing intimate details with the world: ‘Why not tell my side of it? I’ve been in the press for more than 20 years. 

‘Even though I can be in the papers and stuff day in and day out they don’t really know me as a person which I feel like from the book hopefully they get me a lot more.’
