Davy Jones' locker

The 'Wagatha Christie' took another bizarre twist on Thursday as Rebekah Vardy gave evidence at the High Court in London.

While discussing this tweet in a private WhatsApp conversation, Ms Watt told Mrs Vardy “It wasn’t someone she trusted. I’ve told him I’m 100% confident that it happened but don’t know how.” Mr Sherborne accused Mrs Vardy of trying to throw herself a “lifeline” and asked why, after bathing her children, she didn’t respond to Ms Watt to challenge what she had said, if she didn’t know about and authorise the leak. Mrs Rooney later posted a public tweet saying it was “sad” someone who followed her was “betraying” her. On Thursday, the court heard one of the articles in the case concerned Mrs Rooney’s car being damaged in early 2019, with a picture of the damaged Honda being posted on her private Instagram account. Mrs Vardy, 40, appeared to accept that her agent leaked information from Coleen Rooney’s private Instagram account to a newspaper, but denied it was “new” information.

Mr Sherborne said Vardy was “fishing” when she went on to ask Rooney: “Have you been through all your followers? Mr Sherborne asked Vardy: "That article refers explicitly to a post on Mrs Rooney’s Instagram account doesn't it? What about being hacked?”

Mr Sherborne said: “You say that as a result of that process, all of the messages on your phone, all the WhatsApp messages on your phone between you and Ms Watt, were deleted, were lost. Mr Sherborne said on Thursday it was a “shame” that messages between journalists – who had allegedly been leaked stories – and Ms Watt were “lying at the bottom of the sea in Davy Jones’ locker”. Mrs Rooney’s barrister David Sherborne said Caroline Watt was “filming the coastline” while on a boat trip in Scotland and dropped her phone, with Ms Watt “unable to retrieve it”.

Tension broke in the heated Wagatha Christie trial earlier today when Rebekah Vardy admitted she didn't know what 'Davy Jones' meant.

Mr Sherborne suggested a short break, and as the judge left the room, a tearful Mrs Vardy put her head in her hands on the desk. For the second time this week, Mrs Vardy began to cry in the witness box during her cross-examination over whether she had seen a so-called ‘flooded basement’ post, which was one of the Instagram stories Mrs Rooney claims were only seen by Mrs Vardy’s account during her ‘sting operation’. I’ve told him I’m 100% confident that it happened but don’t know how.’

At the time I was speaking to Miss Boshoff I didn’t know what to think, I didn't know what to believe and that's what I thought had happened. You can tell it that you are right and it is wrong, but it's still going to s*** in your hair." and wished the mother-of-four luck for her move to Washington DC, adding she "must be excited". Vardy initially said: “I can't recall seeing this one. I confirmed she had definitely crashed it.” It's just the fourth thing in recent weeks that I have noticed.'' But she hadn't, had she?'' Vardy denied she was the Secret WAG and said she was referring to an upcoming feature with the Mirror, adding the column was “absolute nonsense” and “garbage”. It's just the fact that someone is telling them. On her public Twitter account she said she had not had a crash, someone had hit her car and the story was wrong. Mr Sherborne said the FA rep claimed Harry Maguire's fiancee Fern Hawkins had "expressed her upset" and was "embarrassed, was not prepared and had not expected to be put in that position". He said an FA representative said in a witness statement some of the WAGs had expressed to her their "annoyance and disbelief" at being "set up" to be in the photo by Vardy.
