Controvercy

On 9 October 2019, Coleen Rooney made a Twitter post alleging that posts from her private Instagram account were being leaked to The Sun newspaper. Rooney stated that to catch out who was selling the stories, she had restricted access on who could see the posts.

She stated that the only viewer of these posts was Vardy, therefore insinuating that she was the culprit. This Tweet went viral, being dubbed the ‘Wagatha Christie’scandal (a play on words of famous mystery writer Agatha Christie, and the football term ‘WAG’).

Vardy, who was seven months pregnant with her fifth child at the time, responded on her own Twitter account, denying the claims and stated that her Instagram had been hacked.In June 2020, it was reported that Vardy is taking Rooney to court for defamation, with legal costs reportedly estimated to be £500,000 for each side.

Vardy won the first round of her case, setting the grounds for future libel action and also winning almost £23,000 in costs from Rooney.The pair are trying to reach a resolution without going through the courts, agreeing to delay further court proceedings until February 2021.

In a legal showdown between football spouses that mixed celebrity, social media and amateur sleuthing, a judge has ruled whodunnit.Judge Karen Steyn on Friday cleared Coleen Rooney of libeling Rebekah Vardy when she alleged that Vardy had leaked her private social media posts to the tabloid press.The judge said in a written ruling that Rooney’s allegation was “substantially true”. Steyn said it was likely that Vardy’s agent, Caroline Watt, had passed private information to The Sun newspaper, and that ”Mrs. Vardy knew of and condoned this behavior.”Vardy sued after Rooney accused her in 2019 of sharing the Instagram content with The Sun.

The case, heard at the High Court in May, was a media sensation. The women are celebrities in their own right, and both are married to famous footballers: Vardy to Leicester City and England striker Jamie Vardy, Rooney to former Manchester United and England star Wayne Rooney.Then there was the amateur detective work that led to Rooney’s accusation. Rooney, 36, has said she purposely posted fake stories on Instagram to find out who was passing her private information to the press. Rooney said she had blocked all accounts from seeing her Instagram stories, apart from the one she suspected of being the leaker.

Rooney was dubbed “Wagatha Christie,” a play on the slang term “WAG” — wives and girlfriends of soccer stars and the name of crime author Agatha Christie.Vardy, 40, strenuously denied leaking, and sued for libel “to establish her innocence and vindicate her reputation,” her lawyer Hugh Tomlinson said. He said Vardy had suffered “widespread hostility and abuse” after Rooney accused her in a post to almost 2 million social media followers.

The case caused a media frenzy during seven days of hearings as the two women went to court, along with their husbands, despite being urged by judges and legal experts to settle. The case has reportedly cost each side more than £1 million ($1.2 million) in legal fees.
