Coleen and Wayne Rooney arrive to give evidence in Wagatha Christie High Court row

COLEEN Rooney has arrived at the High Court to begin her evidence in the blockbuster Wagatha Christie case.

The Wag, 35, is going head-to-head with Rebekah Vardy, 39, after she accused her of leaking stories to the press.



Coleen was joined by husband Wayne as she arrived at the court in London this morning.

She wore a cream trouser suit and a medical boot on her leg after she reportedly broke a bone in her foot.

The mum will take to stand to the stand at the high-profile case later today after Rebekah finishes her evidence.

She arrived minutes after Coleen in a dark suit and white shirt.

7 bizarre moments from Becky Vardy & Coleen Rooney’s Wagatha trial

The explosive trial kicked off this week in spectacular fashion as Rebekah broke down twice while giving evidence.

She was accused of lying after denying she set up paparazzi to take pics of Wags during the 2018 World Cup.

Rebekah also claimed she was "distracted" by Gemma Collins "faceplanting" on Dancing on Ice when agent her Caroline Watt admitted in texts she'd tipped off the press about Coleen's 2019 car crash in Washington.

Coleen's barrister David Sherborne then confused the mum-of-five when he asked about Miss Watt losing her phone in the North Sea days after she was ordered to turn it over.

The lawyer asked: "We know that Miss Watt's phone is now in Davy Jones' Locker, don't we, Mrs Vardy?"

Rebekah, who was clearly baffled, then replied: "I'm sorry, I don't know who Davy Jones is."

As people in the room burst out laughing, the judge explained it's an idiom for the bottom of the sea.

Despite the brief moment of levity, Rebekah left the witness box in tears following jabs from Mr Sherborne.

After complaints of poor form from Rebekah's lawyer Hugh Tomlinson, judge Mrs Justice Steyn rapped Mr Sherborne.

She branded his jibes "unnecessary" and telling him: "There's not really enough time for those comments in any event."

Shortly afterwards, the court was adjourned for a second time after Rebekah put her head in her hands and wept again as she said: "There's been a lot of abuse."

Coleen turned detective in October 2019 and accused Rebekah of sharing stories from her personal Instagram account.

In the infamous post, Coleen said she posted a string of false stories via her Instagram account with restricted access to see if they appeared in the media, which they did.

She then said the fake stories had only been viewed by one person, and ended dramatically: “It’s . . . Rebekah Vardy’s account.”

Jamie Vardy's wife Rebekah, who was heavily pregnant at the time, denied the allegations and claimed several people had access to her account.
