£100k payout in wags' libel case

Barristers for the two have appeared in court in a dispute over legal costs after Mrs Vardy lost her High Court claim against Mrs Rooney in 2022.

It followed Mrs Rooney accusing Mrs Vardy of leaking her private information to the press on social media, with Wednesday marking five years since the viral post at the heart of the dispute.

Mrs Vardy was later ordered to pay 90 per cent of Mrs Rooney's fees, with an initial payment of £800,000.

But at the end of the hearing, which began on Monday, senior costs judge Andrew Gordon-Saker ordered Mrs Vardy to pay a further £100,000 to Mrs Rooney within 21 days.
