Coleen Rooney hits back at Rebekah Vardy's tearful Loose Women appearance

A defiant Coleen Rooney has had her say after fellow 'WAG' Rebekah Vardy appeared on Loose Women talking about the pair's falling out for the first time.

The women made headlines in October last year after Coleen accused Rebekah of leaking stories about her to the national press after seeing private information about her on Instagram.

Rebekah, who is married to Leicester City player Jamie Vardy, has always strongly denied the allegations and told the Loose Women panel yesterday (Feb 13) how trolls had made her life hell in recent months, reports The Mirror.

 

She broke down in tears as she blamed Coleen and the "Wagatha Christie" scandal for hospitalising her three times while pregnant.

She said: "It was really hard. It was up there with one of the worst things I’ve had to deal with - apart from being abused by my step dad when I was younger.

“The trolling was the worst part for me. I have been trolled before and I do get it all the time, but it escalated off the back of this. I think people don’t realise when they are saying stuff like that.

"I ended up with severe anxiety attacks. I ended up in hospital three times. I ended up with kidney stones. I felt like I couldn’t go out with people just looking at me just questioning.. whether.. did she do it? Did she not do it?"

“No one would ever say anything to your face they never do, do they? They aren’t brave enough to say things to your face.”

As she made her appearance, Rebekah showed off her nurturing side as she cuddled her newborn baby Olivia.

 

But a spokesperson for Coleen told  The Sun in a statement: “Coleen remains confident in the legal process and sees no reason to take the numerous opportunities that have been offered to engage in further public debate in this matter

“She has nothing to add to what she has already said.”

Sources added Coleen was puzzled why Rebekah has spoken out publicly about their row.
