Colleen has claimed on Twitter that Vardy has been selling stories on her!

I bet this happens a lot to celebs, although my first guess would not have another celeb!

A good friend of Ryan Reynolds tried to sell photos of Ryan's first baby, but Ryan figured out it was him. They'd been friends from childhood, really tight. I'd be so paranoid after that.

The memes on Twitter are hilarious!

Coleens statement has been very deliberately and carefully worded to ensure she's not directly accusing RV of selling the stories (hence the word 'account'). I imagine she's had a shit load of legal advice on this.

Won't lie, have spent far too much time on Twitter today chortling about this.

I'd seen a reference to Coleen on another thread on here today, now I see why! Loving WAGatha Christie.

BonnesVacances · 09/10/2019 17:12

If that's going to be RV's defence, she remember that she should take care to make sure her PA and other people can't just pick up her phone and read other people's stories that are clearly private and for viewing by only a select few.

Potnoodledoo · 09/10/2019 17:15

Seriously the memes on Twitter have been taken to another level.They are so funny.

Team Colleen, best drama since the years old Indy/Brexit crap Grin

So two people trading off of their husbands name have a disagreement. Must be a slow news day

It's more than that - two people trading off their husbands name have public row that one is or isn't trading the other husbands name in addition to her own Grin

Hell on in the wag world 🤣

Crystal87 · 09/10/2019 17:43

Those celebrity accounts probably are run by a team of people, not just the individuals themselves. So I doubt Rebekah has done anything.

ManonBlackbeak · 09/10/2019 17:43

I remember William and Kate doing something similar years ago. They worked out that one of their circle was leaking stories to the media, so they started telling various friends ridiculous false stories to weed them out.

I believe Coleen 100%. Rebekah Vardy has always had a really unpleasant air to her, and she was really nasty on Im a Celebrity Get me out of Here. Also, Jamie is estranged from his family. Allegedly because they all dislike her so much.

PeterRouseTheFleshofMankind · 09/10/2019 17:47

It's not clear whether 'It's.... Rebekah Vardy's account' (😂) is her public one that everyone sees, and therefore other PR people etc probably have access to, or a private friends and family only one, like the one Coleen has. I would have thought it would be the latter as I would imagine that lots of famous people have 2 accounts. And that is unlikely to be accessed by others.

SesameOil · 09/10/2019 17:47

I had to Google Rebekah Vardy but am pleased I did! Love a bit of Goss.

TheLamleys · 09/10/2019 17:49

I'd never heard of RV either

100PercentThatBitch · 09/10/2019 17:52

Does anyone know the legalities of this

Because if this was fully untrue there is enough in the statement and national reaction to the statement for RV to press a libel charge

If she did, and Coleen challenged it could the S*n be compelled to reveal that she was their source

I feel like at this stage if RV DOES NOT pursue a libel case, it tells it's own story

Potnoodledoo · 09/10/2019 18:08

@100PercentThatBitch im sure CR took legal advise before she sent that message for all too see.

100PercentThatBitch · 09/10/2019 18:12

Yes I'm sure she did but I also think in terms of the media reaction and the interpretation that it IS RV not just "her account" she has a fairly strong libel case should it be a false statement

AllFourOfThem · 09/10/2019 18:12

Because if this was fully untrue there is enough in the statement and national reaction to the statement for RV to press a libel charge

Her statement just says RV’s account had access and not that RV herself was responsible. RV hasn’t denied her account had access and is saying she was hacked.

It's got to be true then because there's no way she was conveniently hacked again every time Coleen floated a false story
