It was the feud that gripped us all last year, when Coleen Rooney sensationally accused Rebekah Vardy of leaking stories about her to the press. But now, there’s been an update with the Wagatha Christie case, as reportedly Coleen has fired her legal team after they informed her that her case against Rebekah Vardy wasn't 'very strong'.
‘Coleen thought it was a total certainty she was in the right,’ a source told The Sun{
They added, ‘Coleen still won’t back down — and now she’s decided who to hold responsible, she is planning to fork out big time and hire a very expensive London legal team who are specialists in media and privacy work.’
Last month, it was reported that the pair - who used to be close friends - couldn’t agree on a ‘way forward’ during an online Alternative Dispute Resolution mediation meeting as they tried to resolve their dispute outside of court, meaning the case was escalated to London's High Court.
Rebekah has denied the allegations ever since Coleen claimed ‘it was Rebekah Vardy’s account’ in October. A source previously told The Sun, 'Becky is adamant she's done nothing wrong and while she wants an end to this ongoing legal battle, she also wants to be vindicated. Becky has told her team she wants a public apology. She was really hurt that Coleen went straight on social media to lay blame at her door, rather than speaking to her privately.’
