Rebekah Vardy has declared that her drama with Coleen Rooney is overdue.
After Coleen blatantly claimed that Rebekah’s Instagram account had been leaked to the media, the pair have been at odds with one another. With her Wagatha Christie sting investigation, Coleen made an apparent internet break with a string of fictitious posts on her personal Instagram page.
The High Court was informed that Vardy’s account was the only profile that could see her posts. Rebekah firmly refutes the accusations that have been made against her. During the expensive court battle, it was heard how Vardy’s former agent, Caroline Watt, may have been responsible for the leaks, having had access to her account.
But despite the drama between Rebekah, 42 and Coleen, 38, it appears that the charity ambassadors could be prepared to leave the past behind them. Coleen had recently touched briefly on the trial, which saw a judge rule in her favor and state that her claim about Rebekah allegedly leaking stories was “substantially true,” on ITV’s I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!.

Now, Rebekah has praised the Liverpudlian, who placed runner-up to McFly singer and guitarist, Danny Jones, in Sunday night’s grand final. Writing in her column for The Sun, Rebekah said: “And Coleen finished second, Coleen has had a fab series, she has really done well and made herself proud.
” Yes, I know you’re all waiting for me to say otherwise, I’m sorry to disappoint, but it’s just not happening. It’s really, really time to move on and end the year with a positive. More than seven million people tuned in to watch Coleen narrowly defeat Danny on I’m A Celebrity on Sunday night, up from the 6.6 million viewers who watched TV star Sam Thompson win last year, according to ITV.
The winner Danny received a whopping 55.2% of the vote, while the Claire House ambassador received a staggering 44.8%. However, sources have now revealed that heading Down Under has revived her passion for television, despite Coleen’s previously unpopular status.
Coleen is a natural on screen, a TV insider told the Mirror, “her time on I’m a Celebrity only reinforced what the executives already knew.” Her sincerity and charm immediately appealed to viewers. She has been contacted repeatedly to produce more television, but it will now happen.
The source continues, “TV wanted to see I’m a Celebrity.” With her performance as the channel’s runner-up, ITV has long wanted to give her a significant role, and they now have one of the most exciting daytime TV slots available. She’s set to become one of TV’s biggest stars. A big deal is certainly in the offing! “
Rebekah Vardy has been busy lately, with one of her children playingfully placing two glittering red reindeer antlers on her head. The 42 year old, who shares Olivia, four, Finley, seven, and Sofia, ten, with her Leicester City striker husband Jamie (and also has Taylor, 14, and Megan, 19, from a previous relationship), has been juggling family life with writing her no-holds-barred newspaper column about I’m A Celeb, as she tells OK!.
Danny Jones was declared King of the Jungle on Sunday night, and Coleen Rooney, Becky’s arch-nemesis, took second place. Despite remaining tight-lipped about Coleen, Rebekah opens up about her bittersweet festive plans, a boozy new collaboration with her old I’m A Celeb campmate Dennis Wise, inspired by her husband’s own recipe, and the couple’s ‘ legendary house parties’.

Rebekah, are you feeling festive? How’s Christmas look at the Vardys?
I grew up as a Jehovah’s Witness, so we didn’t celebrate Christmas. Now, we make it extra special for the children. We go mad on decorations, but not on presents – that’s not what Christmas is about. Having the kids away from school means creating memories and traditions that the children will incorporate into their lives when they are also involved in families.
Does Jamie’s work ever make this time of year hard?
Oh it’s so hard when you’re in football. Football is our favorite holiday holiday. Jamie’s pretty much away the whole of Christmas. It’s really hard – and really hard for the kids, but at the end of the day, that’s his job and we’re so proud of him. Control the controllables, I always think. You simply must make do. He won’t make it to Christmas dinner, but we’ll have him for a short while. He’ll then spend Christmas Eve training before traveling to Liverpool where they play at 8 p.m. on Boxing Day, so he won’t be back home until the early hours of December 27.
It must be tough for him, leaving…
He finds it harder than I do, as he’s the one that has to say goodbye. I’m at home with the kids. But it’s not the same without him. When he must leave, the atmosphere actually changes. The children are devastated. But because my dad Carlos is insane, he’s here to lift everyone up and cause total carnage!

Tell us about your new vodka collaboration with Denis Wise, which was inspired by Jamie…
Many years ago, it’s well-documented (it’s in Jamie’s book!) that we kept at home to make Skittles vodka. We leave the vodka in the fridge for a few weeks before serving the sweets. We’d go to Costco and buy massive multi-packs of different sweets, separate them into different colours, then whack them in the vodka!
What inspired you to develop this concept? !
We wanted something different, and we do like to experiment with alcohol with our friends, so I believe it was one of those crazy situations. We’re renowned for throwing the best parties – the Vardy’s know how to have a party! They are very popular. We just love having fun, life’s too short – and you never know what’s round the corner.
And why did Jamie serve as a source of inspiration?
It was one of the main drinks around Leicester’s Premier League title-winning season. It was once consumed by everyone around our house. The night they won the Premiere league, we served it at home, so that was it – it became our drink. Now, that party was… insane. It’s almost ten years ago now, but when people ask me about it, I still get goosebumps. A truly close-knit team, I must say. To do something so special in the world of football was magical because they were always the underdogs – Jamie has always been cast as the underdog. And boy, did we celebrate. The party of the century was attended by all the young people at our house.
For a new vodka launch (ITV), the WAG and former Im A Celeb campmate Dennise Wise collaborated.
Who’s the biggest partier, then – you or Jamie?
You know, the older I get, I can’t do it! It’s so hard with kids as well – you’re still getting up early in the morning. You can’t do what you used to. As the saying goes, I may be able to party like a rock star, but I sure can’t recover like one.
You and Denise collaborated on this bottle of vodka. You got on well in the jungle, didn’t you?
Oh, we’re so close. We met on Im A Celeb in 2017, because obviously Denis had history with Leicester – bosses were probably thinking we were going to clash, personality-wise, fall out, argue. We quickly developed into such close friends that we completely matched up. We’ve stayed in touch, our families go on holiday together… That’s what made that series so special for me. You break those bonds, too.
What are your stand-out moments from the show?
The whole experience. You know what it’s about, but you never realize how difficult it is until you do. I went in thinking, this is going to be a walk in the park – they’re going to give me back-handers of bananas, jelly beans… Oh my word. It’s nothing like that. It’s so hard. You have a lot of time to reflect on life and reflect on things. The boredom is a killer! Especially when the weather’s miserable. But we got on really well, I still look back on it as an incredible experience.

You’ve had your fair share trolling over the years. How are you going to handle that?
With cyber-bullying so rife, it needs to be tackled. People must hold themselves accountable for their actions more frequently. The situation appears to be eroding from control. Initially, I found it really difficult. How is it possible to criticize someone who is completely stranger? Anyone in the public eye is a huge target, as I frequently see it. But the older I got, the more I realised what was important. And what some obscene keyboard warrior might say about me, my family, or my personality is not important to me. I guarantee, they wouldn’t say these things to my face!
Do you worry that your children will develop in a social media era?
It petrifies me. I’d like to stop using social media for a minimum age and turn the clock back. Kids these days are way too focused on what’s online. With our kids, Jamie and I are very disciplined. After they’ve drank their iPads, completed their homework, and gotten ready for bed, they can only use them for an hour. Obviously my eldest, Megan, is nearly 20 so I don’t have control of what she does. But what she has seen me go through is really important to her.
The 42-year-old admits that the idea of her kids being abused like she has ‘petrifies’ her (Dave Benett/Getty Images for Hyd).
In what sense?
Someone will always have an opinion on you, which is taught to her because you can be the nicest person in the world. Because it won’t happen, you can’t expect everyone to like you in life. And that’s OK. As long as you’re true to yourself and stand up for what you believe in, you’re respectful and have great manners, that will get you everywhere in life.
You’re looking fab – fans have said you look like Cheryl…
Well, I really keep myself busy and try to look after myself. There aren’t enough hours in the day, though! I did see that about Cheryl. Well, she’s a stunning girl so I take that as a huge compliment.
Any big plans for 2025?
I don’t do New year’s resolutions, they’re a load of crap – if I have goals, they’re all year round. But there are exciting things in the pipeline that, annoyingly, I can’t talk about yet – sorry! My main focus is on the new vodka. We’re talking to big international distributors, we want to make it a huge success. Watch this space for more information about the upcoming release of a few new flavors and possibly a new spirit with sweets!

Jay-Z and Beyoncé put on a united front after he faced allegations of raping a minor.
Following the 2000 MTV Music Video Awards, the megastar, whose real name is Shawn Corey Carter, is accused of sexually assaulting a 13-year-old in a civil law lawsuit. The 55-year-old has strongly denied the allegations. A lawsuit against Combs, which was originally filed in New York’s Southern District in October, was refiled on Sunday, listing Carter as a defendant in relation to an alleged incident at the MTV Awards.
The incident occurred after the awards ceremony and in front of P Diddy, who is currently remanded in custody due to a string of sexual abuse allegations, according to his accuser, who has been identified as Jane Doe. After sharing his grief with his wife and daughter Blue Ivy, 12, he informed his three children about the allegations. The rapper and music mogul, who is from Brooklyn, then walked out with his wife and daughter.
Jay-Z stepped out at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood with his wife, daughter and mother-in-law, Tina Knowles as they attended the premiere of Mufasa: The Lion King, just hours after the claims were brought to light. The actor, who has been named one of Forbes’ “Top 50 Rappers of All Time,” donned a black and white suit for the glittery event to pose with his family.

Meanwhile, his megastar wife who found fame in Destiny’s Child looked sensational as she matched her husband’s outfit, wearing a shoulder less black dress dress which featured elements of gold. Her blonde tresses were arranged so that her camera-she could smile and rest on her chest as she waved in a neat wave.
Beyoncé, who plays Nala in the film, also matched her appearance with Blue Ivy’s stunning gold gown, which undoubtedly caught the eye of onlookers. Jay-Z recently blasted the allegations and called the alleged victims’ lawyer an “ambulance chaser” trying to extort him, saying that his attempts would fail despite Beyoncé not to address them.
Jay-Z responded strongly to the rape allegations in a statement that was widely shared on social media. He criticized Texas attorney Tony Buzbee, who represents 120 alleged Sean “Diddy” Combs victims, and called the allegations against him “so heinous in nature.” He said, “I implore you to file a criminal complaint, not a civil one, because these allegations are so heinous in nature” Would you not agree that a minor who commits such a crime against a minor should be kept a lock? If that were the case, these alleged victims would deserve real justice.

” This lawyer, who I have done a bit of research on, seems to have a pattern of these type of theatrics! I can’t explain how you came to be such a cruel person, Mr. Buzbee, but I’ve seen your kind numerous times. I’m more than capable of handling your type. You claim to be a marine?! Marines are known for their valor, you have neither honor nor dignity. “
Jay-Z went on to say how it was” unfair “that his family will also be affected by the lawsuit”. My only heartbreak is for my family, “he wrote”. One of my wife’s children, who is at the age of 18, will undoubtedly see the news, be asked about the nature of these claims, and to explain the cruelty and lust of people, is where we will have to sit down.
“I mourn yet another loss of innocence. Children shouldn’t have to deal with this when they are young. It is unfair to have to investigate the absurdities of human nature intended to destroy families and the spirit. Real victims everywhere need my heart and my support, because they must watch as this ambulance chaser wears their life story in disguise for profit.
The woman who accused him of raping her has recently moved to make her reveal her identity. His attorney, Alex Spiro, filed documents on Monday morning asking the judge to make the plaintiff reveal herself. His lawyer said: “Fair is fair. It is not consistent with justice, fairness, or the rules governing federal proceedings for the Plaintiff and her counsel to smear]Jay-Z] ‘s good name”.
The documents, seen by the Mirror go on to state that Jay-Z, real name Shawn Carter, had built an “impeccable reputation” and has never been accused of, or engaged in, sexual misconduct.

In light of ongoing divorce rumors with his wife Meghan Markle, a seasoned royal expert has backed Prince Harry’s claim of happiness, saying, “I believe him.”
Jennie Bond, a seasoned Royal correspondent and expert journalist, claims Harry’s difficult past has left its mark, labeling him “damaged” and calling for an end to unnecessary meddling in a marriage that the public is not privy to.
At a recent literary event in the Big Apple, the 40-year-old Duke made light of the relentless media sagas, scoffing, “Apparently we’ve bought or moved house 10, 12 times. We’ve apparently divorced maybe 10, 12 times as well. So it’s just like, what”? He did acknowledge the difficulty of such constant media attention and that it was difficult to “keep up with”.
Meghan and Harry appear content together, but rumors persist, particularly on social media (Getty).
Speaking to OK! magazine, Bond delved into Harry’s defiance and the shadows cast by the tragic demise of his mother, Princess Diana, explaining: “Harry is stubborn. Additionally, his mother’s actions are understandably hurtful. Who can blame him for being so protective of his wife and kids?
She empathised with the prince’s feelings towards the intrusive press and internet trolls, stating: “I have some sympathy with his despair about the media… and social media in particular, with the trolls who peddle unsourced nonsensical rubbish about his marriage”.
Jennie advocated for respect toward Harry and Meghan’s private life, concluding: “He says he is happy. I believe him. Stop trying to break up a marriage with nothing to do.

Given Prince Harry’s military background, having served in Afghanistan, his security worries are understandable, yet some of his actions, such as travelling to Nigeria and Colombia with Meghan, have been perceived as inconsistent. By taking on the Home Office over security concerns, Harry demonstrates determination, but this might further strain his relationship with King Charles, according to Jennie.
Following his 2020 relocation to California, the Duke of Sussex has been fighting legal matters over the removal of his UK security detail. He has publicly expressed his concerns on numerous occasions since being given the opportunity to challenge this decision in court.
Prince Harry has stated: “All it takes is one lone actor, one person who read this stuff, to act on what they have read, and whether that is a knife or acid… they are genuine concerns for me, they are one of the reasons I won’t bring my wife back to this country]the UK]”.
Coleen Rooney’s eight-year-old son Kit said: “Ugh, she stinks” when he made his surprise visit to see mum in the I’m a Celebrity jungle.
Because the child had spent three weeks in the camp at the time, the youngster noticed her mother’s scent less appealing than usual. The shock reunion with Kit and his younger brother Cass left Coleen, 38, in tears.
Speaking now after she narrowly lost out to McFly’s Danny Jones, Coleen revealed the first thing Kit said was “Ugh, she stinks” when he saw her in the jungle. She revealed the details in one of her first media appearances since the program ended, and afterward she was back to her flawlessly groomed self.
The period was the longest Coleen had been away from husband Wayne in their 26-year relationship, it is said. The mum of four continued: “Those first few days were tough. I got there and I thought, ‘ What have I set myself up for? ‘ I simply sat there amid a large crowd of personalities.
” Then, day three, the headaches from withdrawals from caffeine, sugar and alcohol kicked in. Before I entered, I really didn’t prepare. Then the hunger started because we didn’t really receive stars in the first week.

Only Coleen could tell the truth about the depressing conditions that Love Island’s Maura Higgins and the Reverend Richard Coles were living in during their separate camps.
It appeared to change the competition for Coleen, whose odds to win slashed to 9/4 by Friday. By then, Wayne, 39, had appeared on I’m a Celebrity: Unpacked to encourage viewers to vote for his wife to do a Bushtucker Trial – and it worked as Coleen was later enclosed in coffin crawling with rats, maggots, cockroaches and meal worms.
But speaking in her post-show chat, Coleen said she” was desperate to do a trial”. According to her, cockroaches caused her the most discomfort during the agonizing ordeal, according to Mail Online.
However, as they prepare to travel back to the UK with their mother, father, and two younger sons to reunite with the rest of the family ahead of Christmas, Coleen is now back with her. The media personality claimed that she had planned Christmas and had already done her shopping so she could leave knowing everything was ready.
