Rebekah, 40, and Coleen, 36, are involved in a legal battle after the latter accused the former of leaking news via social media. The trial begins on May 9.
According to The Sun, in a statement submitted to London’s High Court last week, Rebekah has revealed that Watt was a likely culprit. Coleen’s lawyer David Sherborne said: “The collapse of Ms Vardy’s case over the last day has been remarkable. As of Wednesday evening, in an abrupt change of position to her pleaded case, Mrs Vardy appears now to accept Mrs Rooney’s case. That Caroline Watt, Ms Vardy’s close friend and PR, was the conduit by which stories from the defendant’s private Instagram account were leaked.”
