Rebekah Vardy has taken a series of swipes at Coleen Rooney ahead of the latter’s I’m A Celebrity experience, in what is the latest instalment of the famous Wagatha Christie scandal . The two women – wives of footballers Wayne Rooney and Jamie Vardy – cemented themselves in the culture history books in 2019 after Coleen, 38, claimed Rebekah, 42, was leaking posts made on her private Instagram account to The Sun. In response, Rebekah sued her former friend in a High Court libel trial, with the court finding during the highly publicised trial that Coleen’s statements were substantially true.
Now, as Coleen is set to jump into the I’m A Celebrity Jungle 2024 – for a reported £5million – Rebekah has given her thoughts on the wild news. When asked by The Sun what she would like to see Coleen chomp on during the ITV show, Rebekah responded: ‘A penis. Or humble pie.
’ When asked whether that was the worst thing Coleen had ever had in her mouth, Rebekah replied: ‘I don’t know. You have to look at her husband really, don’t you?’ Ouch. Rebekah, who said she would 100% join the jungle if ITV called her up mid-season, went on to say: ‘I don’t say this to be nasty, I say this because it’s an opinion of mine.
She likes to be the victim. She’s never liked me, we were never friends.’ The WAG – who confirmed she will be watching the ITV show – predicted Coleen will try to be the ‘mother of the camp’ and be ‘a bit boring’ until evictions starte.
