Coleen Rooney has said her anxiety from the Wagatha Christie court case caused a dormant illness to flare up.
In May 2022, the 37-year-old was sued for libel by Rebekah Vardy, the wife of the famed English soccer player Jamie. Three years prior, Rooney claimed Rebekah, her friend at the time, had leaked private stories about her to the press. Known as the “Wagatha Christie” case, British High Court Judge Mrs Justice Steyn believed Vardy to have most likely tipped off tabloids about Rooney’s personal information shared on her private Instagram account, according to The Guardian’s report.
