Why did she bother.? Must have cost squillions.

Galaxy Fri 29-Jul-22 12:16:45

For both of them. One million each I have just read.

And I know it's wrong and shallow but it was entertaining at times.

Smileless2012 Fri 29-Jul-22 13:34:00

I cannot for the life of me understand why Vardy persisted with this case when it was so obvious from the off what she'd done and was lying about it.

I'm glad Coleen won.

I gather the total cost is £3m - which Vardy has to pay

Galaxy Rebekah has to pay both her and Colleens bill ???, so Jamie is out of pocket to the tune of a cool 3 million.

I bet his parents are enjoying this since they warned him off her.

F feel somewhat sorry for Colleen, many people don’t bother reading past the headlines and have given her flack for ‘taking it to court’ when in fact, Rebekah took it to court so she had to make a defence and go to court, Rebekah declined her offer to settle twice. Brass neck considering she definitely was the one leaking to the press.

My dear old mum used to say that 'your sins will find you out' which seems apt for this case.

Smileless2012 Fri 29-Jul-22 13:47:50

I bet they are too Dilly. He estranged them, they didn't even go to the wedding so maybe the Rooney's wont be the only ones celebrating.

So tired of hearing about this, certainly doesn't need to be headline news. Two silly women wasting vast amounts of money. The legal teams must be laughing all the way to the bank.

Galaxy Fri 29-Jul-22 15:15:40

Why was she selling the stories?, is it because Coleen is higher in the wag hierarchy, it cant have been for the money.

PollyDolly Fri 29-Jul-22 15:32:46

Sodapop, Colleen had no choice as Rebekah Vardy launch the court case against her.
A storm in a teacup that got out of hand through jealousy and bitchiness from what I can see.
I have always had a high opinion of Colleen Rooney as she has always come across as the 'girl next door'.
The other woman is just vindictive and spiteful and a liar!

BlueBelle Fri 29-Jul-22 15:41:56

Can’t be bothered to even read more than the headlines two silly nouveaux rich girls quarrelling I guess ??‍♂️

Mine Fri 29-Jul-22 15:52:04

Wouldn't give them houseroom...A load of he Said she Said...Jamie Vardy the loser to the tune of 3million pds...

DiamondLily Fri 29-Jul-22 15:56:35

Two talentless females, living off of their husband's wealth and skills, with too little to think about.

What a waste of time and money.?

tickingbird Fri 29-Jul-22 17:23:23

It’s so dismissive and condescending when reading about “2 silly women with more money than sense”. Coleen Rooney was taken to court by Rebecca Vardy. This is all down to Mrs Vardy. She’s obviously a nasty, fame hungry piece of work and the judge saw that. CR had no choice but to attend court and defend herself.

However, from what little I’ve heard today they will both make even more money in the following months with interviews, documentaries etc. Obviously the old saying “no publicity is bad publicity” is true!

tickingbird Fri 29-Jul-22 17:25:38

two silly nouveaux rich girls

Nouveaux riche?? Good grief.

NanKate Fri 29-Jul-22 17:31:27

What a total waste of money.

Two airheads in my opinion.

Chewbacca Fri 29-Jul-22 17:36:11

I agree that this has been a massive amount of wasted money and court time but it could easily have been avoided if Mrs Vardy had accepted any one of the 4 attempts that Mrs Rooney made to settle out of court. But she was convinced that she'd gain more by pursuing legal action. That went well, didn't it?

Calendargirl Fri 29-Jul-22 18:09:11

“The only real winners are the lawyers”.

Just heard that on the News.

How true.

BlueBelle Fri 29-Jul-22 18:21:08

Yes tickingbird I believe the definition is ‘people who make their money within their generation and often lack good taste’ …sounds about perfect description to me
Two silly young women with more money than sense

GrannyGravy13 Fri 29-Jul-22 18:27:38

Colleen Rooney had no choice, she was summoned to appear in court.

She is far from an airhead and publicity seeking footballers wife.

vegansrock Fri 29-Jul-22 18:30:38

Rooney didn’t have a choice in this, she was being charged with libel by Vardy. A good judgement based on some of the ridiculous evidence brought by Vardy.

crazyH Fri 29-Jul-22 18:33:03

From the little I’ve read about these women, I believe Colleen is a more down-to-earth girl. She and Wayne were childhood sweethearts. She did not marry him for money and fame.

henetha Fri 29-Jul-22 18:35:54

From everything I've read this was entirely down to Mrs.Vardy. And the verdict was the correct one.
