Rebekah Vardy accepts it is possible that her friend and former agent may have been the source of leaks at the centre of the High Court libel case she has brought against fellow footballer's wife Colleen Rooney, her barrister has revealed.
Hugh Tomlinson QC said Ms Vardy and her agent Caroline Watt occasionally "used the language of leaking".
In a social media post that quickly went viral in October 2019, Coleen Rooney said she had set up a "sting operation" to catch whoever was passing on stories about her to The Sun, and concluded the leaks came from "Rebekah Vardy's account".
The wife of former England star Wayne Rooney, who was dubbed "Wagatha Christie" for her detective work, publicly claimed Ms Vardy's account had passed on three fake stories she had posted on her private Instagram account.
