Rebekah Vardy reduces courtroom to laughter when questioned about phone in North Sea

A courtroom burst into laughter this afternoon over Rebekah Vardy’s response to a question about her agent’s phone falling into the North Sea.

Mrs Vardy, who is married to Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy, is giving evidence for a third day in her libel trial with Coleen Rooney. Mrs Rooney, married to England star Wayne, accused Mrs Vardy of leaking stories from her private Instagram account in the now-famous ‘Wagatha Christie’ tweet in October 2019.

Mrs Vardy, 40, denies the allegations and is suing Mrs Rooney for defamation. The WAG was being asked by Mrs Rooney’s lawyer David Sherborne about an article in The S*n by Simon Boyle that referenced a picture of Wayne and his children on Coleen’s private Instagram.
