Just when you thought the sensational Wagatha Christie saga had reached its dramatic conclusion, Coleen Rooney has added another plot twist in the form of a Vogue cover shoot and tell-all interview.
Mum-of-four Coleen last week finally broke her silence on her 2019 exposé of fellow WAG Rebekah Vardy – who she accused of selling fake stories on the Rooneys to The Sun – as well as the subsequent libel case.
And new can reveal that her latest bombshell should be seen as the first steps in her “return to the celebrity world as ‘top dog’”.
“This has shown Coleen’s hand with regards to where she wants to go in her career, and where she’ll let this court case take her,” a source explains.
“The Vogue interview speaks volumes on what the narrative between them will be from now on,” they told new. “It was only going to be either Rebekah or Coleen that lands something as big as this at the end of the day, but one is a ‘villain’ and the other is a ‘hero’.”
Our source says Rebekah is “absolutely gutted” over her former friend’s career move.
“She’ll be so jealous of Coleen – the front cover of Vogue is a massive deal. It’s huge. Not many big A-list celebs get to do it, never mind footballer’s wives,” they claim.
“Rebekah has always been really ambitious – she’s worked on a lot of other projects since going to court – but for Coleen to be on the cover of Vogue, that will be really hurting her.”
