Rebekah Vardy will have to pay most of the legal costs after Coleen Rooney won the Wagatha Christie court case against her.
It is believed the total costs of the case will be in the region of £3m. The long-running saga between the two WAGs started in October 2019 when Coleen, 36, said she had carried out a "sting operation" and accused Rebekah's account of leaking "false stories" about her private life to the press in a now viral Instagram post.
Mrs Vardy, who is married to Leicester striker Jamie Vardy, denied leaking stories to the media and sued her fellow footballer’s wife for libel, while Mrs Rooney defended the claim on the basis her post was “substantially true”. In a much-anticipated ruling on Friday, Mrs Justice Steyn found in Mrs Rooney’s favour and dismissed the claim against her.
