Rebekah Vardy cradles daughter Olivia, 5, in adorable birthday snaps
Rebekah Vardy has shared a series of adorable photos to mark her daughter Olivia’s 5th birthday. Rebekah, who recently broke her silence regarding Coleen Rooney’s success on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!, paid tribute to her “wild card” alongside her footballer husband Jamie Vardy.
In a sweet Instagram post, the TV personality shared a selection of snaps from throughout Olivia’s life with her 386,000 followers. In one of the snaps, Rebekah, 42, could be seen cradling Olivia as a baby while the little one was dressed in a cute bear one-piece. In another the pair beamed from ear to ear as they smiled for a selfie.
Elsewhere, Olivia was joined by her dad, Jamie, who plays for Leicester City. In one snap, she can be seen sitting on her dad’s shoulders while she carries one of his medals, while in another, she hugges one of his sporting trophies.

Captioning the post, they wrote: “Happy 5th Birthday to our wild card we love you so much xxx.” In response to the birthday post, Rebekah’s followers took to the comments section to share uplifting messages for the family.
“Such beautiful pictures to treasure,” wrote one. “You've raised a proper little chick. Like her dad. Love the attitude,” added another.
“Happy birthday, beautiful Olivia!! Big 5 already,” commented a third. “Happy birthday, beautiful girl. I can’t believe you are five already!,” wrote a fourth.
It comes after Rebekah addressed Coleen Rooney’s performance on this year’s I’m A Celeb after her fellow WAG came in second place to McFly’s Danny Jones. While Coleen may not have been crowned Queen of the Jungle, Rebekah praised her for her success on the show and explained that she’d done “really well” and should feel “proud” for what she achieved.
“And Coleen finished second. Coleen has had a fab series. She has really done well and made herself proud,” she wrote in The Sun. “Yes, I know you're all waiting for me to say otherwise, I'm sorry to disappoint, but it's just not happening. It's really, really time to move on and end the year with a positive.”
Speaking of her time on the show, mum-of-four Coleen revealed how it was nice to have “her time” in the spotlight following the success of her husband Wayne Rooney on the football pitch. “I didn't expect to get this far! Danny truly deserves it, I was happy to share the camp with everyone,” she said.
