The Wagatha Christie trial - explained

Rebekah Vardy has lost her Wagatha Christie libel trial against Coleen Rooney.
Vardy had sued Rooney after being publicly accused of leaking "false stories" to the media in 2019, with the high-profile trial taking place at the High Court in London in May.
The wife of former England star Wayne Rooney was dubbed "Wagatha Christie" after claiming that three fake stories posted on her personal Instagram page - which unbeknown to Vardy at the time were shared only with her account - were passed on to The Sun newspaper.
Sky News explains the story.

FAME HUNGRY Rebecca Vardy sold stories on Coleen, got caught, lied about it, played victim, turned down 4 opportunities to settle (even though she knew she was lying), perjured herself in court, threw her agent under the bus & left Jamie with £3M legal bill

There going to make millions from this publicity stunt

[@stephenlang3135]

The only winners are the lawyers.

[@BLACULA-Skeewoah]

A bunch of rich, overvalued, sycophants.....

[@cclarksonable]

Why didn't she just delete Vardy from her Instagram? Problem solved

[@cclarksonable]

@@mackdaddy798 kinda backfired though didn't it. By outing her offender on social media, she has spent the last three years tied up in litigation spending millions of pounds on lawyers fees, and receiving even further press intrusion into her private life. Given the choice between the two, I'd opt for just deleting her from my social media.

[@BLACULA-Skeewoah]

@@cclarksonable it hasn't cost her a penny 😂😂

[@official_ashhh]
