Coleen Rooney<\/a> has been shocked by the level of interest in the ‘Wagatha Christie’ row.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Coleen Rooney has been surprised by the reaction<\/p>\n

The 37-year-old star became embroiled in a high-profile dispute with Rebekah Vardy back in 2019 – which ultimately led to a legal case and a new Disney documentary – but Coleen remains amazed that so many people are captivated by the story.<\/p>\n

Coleen – who is married to retired soccer star Wayne Rooney – told E! News: “I remember when I had done the post and the next day, my PR at the time, she came on and said, ‘You are wanted for interviews in Australia and America’.<\/p>\n

“Now, when I look back on it, it was pretty unbelievable that it hit that many places. But my state of mind wasn’t to accept any. But it shows I had a chance to say my peace from the beginning, but I wanted to just focus getting the right things out there and battling through the court case.”<\/p>\n

Coleen’s case centred on accusations that Rebekah was leaking private Instagram posts.<\/p>\n

\nThe row eventually led to a libel case in 2022, when both parties appeared at the High Court in London.<\/p>\n

\nIn 2019, Coleen took to social media to claim that “Rebekah Vardy’s account” was behind the publication of three fake stories that she’d deliberately leaked online.<\/p>\n

\nShe said in a lengthy social media post at the time: “Now I know from certain which account\/individual it\u2019s come from.<\/p>\n

\n“I have saved and screenshotted all the original stories which clearly show just one person has viewed them. It\u2019s \u2026 Rebekah Vardy\u2019s account. (sic)”<\/p>\n

\nColeen’s post prompted the row to become known as the ‘Wagatha Christie’ scandal, in reference to Agatha Christie, the author famed for her detective novels.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
