Coleen Rooney shares sweet family snap as Rebekah Vardy joins Dancing On Ice

Coleen Rooney took to Instagram to share a sweet family snap with her boys just as Rebekah Vardy appeared on daytime TV to announce that she's taking part in the upcoming series of Dancing On Ice.

The two women have been locked in a fierce battle ever since Coleen accused Rebekah of selling stories about her to the press last year.

And just as the pair prepare to face off in court, Rebekah made a surprise cameo on Good Morning Britain today to reveal she'd signed up to the ITV skating contest.

"I’m really looking forward to getting my teeth into that and get going with it," she explained as viewers shared their excitement at seeing the WAG in action on the gruelling reality series.

Meanwhile, Coleen turned a blind eye to the drama as she updated her Instagram page with a sweet family photo.

The mum posed alongside Kai, Kit, Klay and Cass as they enjoyed a family outing to the beach.

It came two days after she shared another photo from the outing, this time a selfie with her eldest Kai.

Rebekah was also busy this morning as she took time out from the school run to speak on Tuesday's GMB about her upcoming Dancing On Ice appearance.

The mum-of-five spoke to the presenters while dressed in a pink hoodie and wearing no make-up in her parked car.

"I'm so ready for the sequins and the full glam squad. After months of lockdown it'll be nice to get the glam on," she explained.

Rebekah also revealed she already has some experience after skating at her local rink as a child.

"My dad taught me how to stand up on a pair of skates when I was about 7 years old, we used to go skating a lot when my mum and dad split up, we would go with him to the local ice rink.

"I'm really excited actually. The only time I've been ice skating since is when we take our kids to the rink," she said.

Rebekah, who appeared on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! in 2018 added that she just wants 'people to laugh at her.'

Piers Morgan couldn't resist quizzing the wife of football star Jamie Vardy about her looming High Court Battle with Coleen.

"Look, we tried to sort things out amicably, it just didn't work. I understand people think it's ridiculous, but you know..what was I meant to do? I need to clear my name.

"I want to clear my name. I will do whatever that takes. I hope it's going to be resolved soon. It's just one of the things that has to go through the process unfortunately now."

Piers then asked her if she'd found the fall-out difficult.

"I found it really tough. But to be fair Piers, in comparison to what some people have gone through with COVID and things like that, it's incomparable," she explained.
