Becky Vardy drops huge clanging hint she is returning to I'm a Celeb to face Coleen Rooney
Becky Vardy has cheekily hinted she may be on her way to Australia for a confrontation with Coleen Rooney after she posted a photo of an open suitcase on Instagram. Becky, who lost her libel court case against Coleen in 2022, appeared on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! in 2017, while Coleen has signed up to do the series this year and recently arrived in Australia ready for filming.
Rebekah, who is married to footballer Jamie Vardy, and Coleen, who is wife to Wayne Rooney, were previously friends. They fell out prior to the now infamous Wagatha Christie trial in which Coleen accused Rebekah of leaking private information to the press via social media. It was reported earlier this month that Rebekah would like to return to the jungle simply because Coleen is going to be on the reality show.
A source told The Sun: "Becky would be straight on a plane if she had the chance. She'd love to see the look on Coleen's face if she appeared. It would make the best television. But she imagines bosses have promised Coleen they have no such surprise planned."

The insider added, "She thinks it's hilarious that Coleen is copying her and it is only encouraging people to keep talking about Wagatha rather than leave it in the past. Becky has nothing to hide though she would be game to put on her camp costume."
Meanwhile, Coleen has revealed why she has agreed to appear on I’m A Celebrity this year after being asked numerous times in the past. “It has been year after year I have been asked to go on a programme and it’s always been a straight no,” she says. “Over the years there have been different things going on in my life and also, my children have been really young. But they are at an age now where I can go away for this length of time.”
“I also feel it is time to have a challenge for me and do something different. It has taken many, many years but I’m finally doing it. And I have always said if I was going to do one – then it would be this show. I think it will be good for me.”
Following the early rumours last month that Coleen would be heading to the jungle, Rebekah posted a quotation to her Instagram Stories that read: "Some people are mad at you because you are not suffering the way they expected you to. May God keep disappointing them." She added two laughing emojis and the word “Literally…” to her post.
