Rebekah Vardy trademarks phrase 'Wagatha Christie' after Coleen Rooney court battle

Rebekah Vardy has trademarked the phrase 'Wagatha Christie' following her bruising court battle with Coleen Rooney. The television star successfully trademarked the phrase following her High Court libel defeat against her fellow WAGwhich played out last year.

During the case, both women went head to head in the High Court after Rooney accused Vardy's Instagram account of leaking private stories – which she vehemently denied. However, the judge later parted with Coleen Rooney and ruled that Vardy's account was liable for several stories making it into British tabloids.

Mrs Justice Steyn said that it was "likely" that Rebekah's former agent "undertook the direct act" of leaking stories to the Sun. Now, Rebekah, 41, is making the most of people creating the phrase after Coleen's sting operation after applying for the trademark licence eight months ago under the company, London Limited Inc Ltd.
