Court documents have revealed Rebekah Vardy's furious reaction to Coleen Rooney's bombshell tweet.
The internet exploded on October 9, 2019 when Mrs Rooney accused Mrs Vardy's Instagram account of selling stories about her. Mrs Rooney earned the nickname "Wagatha Christie" after she shared details of the sting operation she conducted to find out who she believed was selling stories about her to The S*n.
The High Court ruled today that Mrs Rooney's claims were "substantially true" as Mrs Vardy failed in her attempts to sue for defamation. Documents released by the court have shown the tweet prompted an exchange between Ms Vardy (RV) and her agent, Caroline Watt (CW).

It said: "[09/10/2019, 10:31:13] [CW]: Message her now and ask what the f**k this is x
"[09/10/2019, 10:32:05] [RV]: Who is that x
"[09/10/2019, 10:32:15] [CW]: Coleen has posted it on twitter
"It is evident from the content of Ms Watt’s messages that the omitted media file is a screenshot of the Reveal Post, taken from Twitter. As suggested by Ms Watt, at 10:32:26 Ms Vardy sent Ms Rooney a media file, which it can be inferred is a screenshot of the Reveal Post, followed at 10:32:33 by a message which said, “W** is this”.
"The exchange between Ms Vardy and Ms Watt continued: [09/10/2019, 10:32:46] [RV]: Wow [flushed face emoji] that’s war x
"[09/10/2019, 10:33:36] [CW]: She has just posted it now
"[09/10/2019, 10:34:22] [CW]: You will have to say that you don’t speak to anyone about her but that recently your insta has even been following people you don’t follow
"[09/10/2019, 10:34:42] [CW]: And she should have come to you first and asked you about it
"[09/10/2019, 10:34:48] [CW]: So you could have changed your password
"[09/10/2019, 10:35:35] [CW]: Just say you have allowed a company to access it for sponsored posts and a former social media agency that you worked with too
"[09/10/2019, 10:35:48] [CW]: I want to call her PR
"[09/10/2019, 10:46:45] [RV]: image omitted
"[09/10/2019, 10:57:30] [CW]: As I have just said to you on the phone, I wish you had called me if you thought this. I never speak to anyone about you as various journalists who have asked me to over the years can vouch for. If you thought this was happening you could have told me & I could have changed my passwords to see if it stopped. Over the years various people have had access to my insta & just this week I found I was following people I didn’t know and have never followed myself. I’m not being funny but I don’t need the money, what would I gain from selling stories on you? I liked you a lot Coleen & I’m so upset that you have chosen to do this, especially when I’m heavily pregnant. I’m disgusted that I’m even having to deny this. You should have called me the first time this happened [broken heart emoji]”
"At 10:58:53 on 9 October 2019, Ms Vardy sent a message to Ms Rooney in precisely the terms of the message advised by Ms Watt at 10:57:30.
"Ms Vardy’s response that if Ms Rooney had told her she could have changed her password to see if the leaks stopped, and that “various people have had access to my insta”, was similar to the response that she and Ms Watt had planned in February if it became “undeniably obvious” that they were the source of the Car Crash Article."
