Rebekah Vardy tells of her torment after losing Wagatha Christie court fight with Coleen Rooney
Rebekah 'I think! might have PTSD'

It was the court case that had us all gripped and after the Wagatha Christie verdict went in Coleen Rooney's favour, Rebekah Vardy insisted the judge had "got it wrong".

Now, in an explosive new interview, the 40-year-old has opened up about how she believes she may have PTSD, feels "let down by the legal system" and is refusing to rule out an appeal.

Rebekah, married to Leicester City footballer Jamie Vardy, 35, revealed she has been admitted to hospital twice to be treated for mental health issues since Coleen's "It's... Rebekah Vardy's account" post in 2019.

"I was having serious panic attacks, I had kidney stones which were brought on by stress, and I just felt like my life was falling apart. Physically, emotionally and mentally, it was exhausting," she said.

Rebekah added that she feels "physically sick" when she talks about the case and continues to have nightmares.

"I think I'm probably suffering with PTSD," she said in a chat on Talk TV. "I haven't gone to get a diagnosis yet but I do know I probably need some more therapy. It's been a horrible time."

Mum-of-five Rebekah, who was seven months pregnant at the time of Coleen's bombshell post, also revealed how she feared for her unborn child.

"I was trying to be mum to four children that were here and I had to try and protect my baby as well because I'd been told in no uncertain terms that if this stress didn't calm itself, there was a real high probability that I'd go into pre-term labour."
