Wagatha Christie trial: Rebekah Vardy ‘wanted paying’ for leak about footballer’s arrest, court told
Rebekah Vardy said she “wanted paying” for leaking information about a footballer who had been arrested, a court has been told. The 40-year-old took the stand on the second day of her libel trial against Coleen Rooney, who has accused Ms Vardy of leaking “false stories” about her to the press. Ms Rooney’s barrister, David Sherborne, asked Ms Vardy about messages with her agent Caroline Watt, including some about Danny Drinkwater - a footballer who was arrested for crashing his car while over the legal drink limit in 2019.
