Lawyers have alleged that Rebekah authorised her agent Caroline Watt to access her personal Instagram account, which was then used to monitor Coleen’s posts and to pass information on to the Sun.

Paralympian Stef was quick to react to her kind words. “It was so great to meet you and your daughter,” she wrote. “Thanks for all your advice and support – both with @dancingonice and on @andybuchanan2 [laughing emoji].”
Rebekah found herself making headlines last week as details from the high court emerged. In 2019, Coleen – the wife of the Derby County manager, Wayne Rooney – accused her of leaking stories from her private Instagram account to the Sun after a months-long sting operation.
The ‘Wagatha Christie’ case will go to full trial in May
Rebekah, who is married to the Leicester City footballer Jamie Vardy, denied the accusation and is suing Coleen for libel. The case is due to go to a full trial in May but a two-day hearing this week has considered which evidence should be taken into account.
