'I thought I was going to pass out': Rebekah Vardy reveals 'traumatic' moment she confronted Coleen Rooney

Rebekah Vardy has recalled the dramatic moment she confronted Coleen Rooney after being accused of leaking stories about her private life to the press. At the time of a viral post from Coleen in October 2019 Rebekah was holidaying in Dubai with her Leicester City footballer husband Jamie just months before welcoming their third child together.

Rebekah has been speaking out following the so-called Wagatha Christie libel trial after the judge ruled in Coleen's favour last week.

Rebekah denied leaking the stories to the media and sued for libel. On Friday, following a trial held at the High Court in London in May, Mrs Justice Steyn ruled in Rooney’s favour and dismissed the claim against her.
