Rebekah Vardy believes her ‘book deal’ and endorsements were lost due to Coleen Rooney controversy

Rebekah Vardy claimed that her Wagatha court case against Coleen Rooney harmed her career by depriving her a “book deal” and a contract to promote “placenta capsules.”

Rebekah Vardy has claimed that her legal struggle with Coleen Rooney over Wagatha Christie has harmed her career.

Vardy, 40, is suing Coleen, a fellow WAG, for libel after she accused her of disclosing her personal details to the public in 2019.

Coleen Rooney, Wayne Rooney’s wife, claimed that the model leaked personal information via a private Instagram account.

Vardy has rejected the allegations of leakage and is suing for libel, while Rooney is defending her claim by claiming that her tweet was “substantially true.”

Ms Vardy now claims that the Wagatha court drama cost her a “potential book deal” that she had lined up but was “turned down.”

She further claimed that after the birth of her fifth child, Olivia, she had a midwife firm “set up” to create placenta capsules for her.

“I had a midwife company lined up to make placenta capsules and they pulled out weeks before the birth,” according to a witness statement obtained by the Mirror.

After both legal teams agreed, the records were made public on Friday (May 20).

Text messages between MS Vardy and her husband, Leicester City footballer Jamie Vardy, were among the other pieces of evidence discovered.

Vardy said that she had been branded a “scapegoat” during Euro 2016 and that news coverage of her made her “blood boil” during the conversations.

Coleen Rooney’s private Instagram account was also made public, with her celebrating her husband Wayne’s birthday among them.

A snap of the ex-England striker and three of their youngsters in their pyjamas was also posted.

On the penultimate day of the trial, Vardy walked out of the Wagatha High Court court when Rooney’s lawyer alleged she “destroyed evidence.”

David Sherborne, Coleen’s lawyer, accused her of “lying under oath” about missing WhatsApp communications.

Mr Sherborne told the court that he was surprised the case had progressed this far.

He claimed that Rebekah’s case was “shrunk to almost nothing” after recent developments, and that she only had a “slither of a case.”

In his closing argument, the lawyer claimed that Rebekah had “deliberate deletion and destruction” evidence.

He also stated that numerous significant witnesses, including Ms Caroline Watt and the journalists who published the leaked stories, had declined to testify.

He urged Justice Steyn to consider the “deliberate cover-up” intended to conceal Vardy’s activities, claiming the evidence revealed “Mrs Vardy deleted the WhatsApp chats and lied on oath.”

Mr Sherborne claimed to the court: “There is only one reason for her having taken such a step. It was done to cover up incriminating evidence.”

“Mrs Vardy deliberately deleted those messages to cover up the collusion between her and Ms Watt.”

Vardy’s antics were “fishy,” he said as the former Dancing On Ice star stood up and fled the Court.

Vardy has refuted the allegations levelled against her.
