Rebekah Vardy dealt new blow in Wagatha row - as Coleen Rooney head onto I'm A Celeb
Coleen Rooney is one of the celebrities about to enter the I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! jungle this year, and there's no doubt her fellow campmates are hoping she'll spill all about her life with footballer husband Wayne. One subject which will undoubtedly come up is the famous Wagatha Christie trial, which saw Coleen's feud with fellow WAG Rebekah Vardy reach new heights.
Rebekah, 42, who is married to Leicester City ace Jamie Vardy, attempted to sue Coleen, 38, for libel following a social media spat, but ended up losing the case. The two WAGs faced each other in court during a trial which lasted several days in 2022, costing millions. After winning the case, Coleen released a documentary, Coleen Rooney: The Real Wagatha Story, on Disney+, where she told her own side of the story and gave fans a rare look into her personal life.
In a fresh blow for Rebekah, Coleen's documentary is now due to be released on ITVX to coincide with her entering the I'm A Celebrity jungle on Sunday, 17 November.

The Real Wagatha Story will be available to stream on ITX from Thursday, 14 November and then made available to watch on ITV2 in December. Millions more viewers will now be able to access the documentary, which was previously only available to watch on Disney+, and interest in the Wagatha Christie trial will no doubt increase due to Coleen's jungle appearance.
It marks a rare reality TV appearance from Coleen, who tends to keep her personal life out of the spotlight. Rumour has it ITV bosses have outdone themselves, splurging more than their historic £1.5 million they dished out for bringing MP Nigel Farage into the wild to tempt Coleen into this new adventure.
In a prerecorded clip shared online, Coleen said: "They've asked me for so many years now and I have just always said no or put it off because kids have been young and I have had a lot on but this year I just thought you know what I quite fancy doing it. I would like to experience it something different, do something for myself and meet new people."
She also added: "Do you know what I'm looking forward to? Just having time to myself to think and reflect over things, which I never get to do that much because I am always in mum mode. It's going to give me time to reflect and think of all the things that I am grateful for. So, I hope you enjoy the show. I hope I bring something to the table and I will see you when I get out."
