Good morning. Wayne Rooney is due to take the stand in the witness box for the sixth day of the “Wagatha Christie” libel trial today, after his wife ...

The High Court also heard that Mrs Rooney kept her so-called "sting operation" from her footballer husband Wayne, as she didn't want to put her "troubles and worries" on others. Mrs Monk said she has “never asked a journalist to reveal their source”, as she responded to questions regarding a conversation she had with a journalist from The Sun. She says she is close to Coleen Rooney and her husband, and that she was a follower on Mrs Rooney's private Instagram account. She says she "didn't feel the need to ask" Mrs Rooney any questions when she saw her tweet regarding her concerns about a suspected leaker. He says that he did not speak to Mrs Rooney about her concerns at the time, and only heard about her suspicions again in 2019, from her viral “reveal” post. Coleen Rooney has returned to the High Court in London for the sixth day of the "Wagatha Christie" libel trial. Mr Stretford responds that he had had a conversation with Wayne Rooney, who mentioned that his wife was “extremely upset” about the so-called leaks, and that she “wasn’t sure who to trust”. Mr Streford says he had no knowledge “whatsoever” about Mrs Rooney’s “sting operation” until she shared the post. Mr Stretford is being questioned about articles that appeared in The Sun in 2019, which Mrs Rooney says were false and part of her so-called "sting operation". Mr Stretford says he “didn’t want to assist The Sun in their quest to stand up” a story about an alleged “car crash” involving Mrs Rooney. Mrs Vardy denies leaking stories to the media and is suing the fellow footballer's wife for libel, while Mrs Rooney is defending the claim on the basis her post was "substantially true". The case comes after a viral social media post in October 2019, where Mrs Rooney, 36, said she had carried out a "sting operation" and accused Mrs Vardy, 40, of leaking "false stories" about her private life to the press.

She said: "I've been silent... it's Mrs Vardy who has brought me here". Rebekah admitted she was "not in a good place" at the time. She said she was forced to endure "hurtful and upsetting" abuse from trolls after the post went viral. It came after Coleen claimed her post was a "last resort" and told the court she was "surprised" by how much it exploded. She said today she "hated every minute" of the fallout - but the court was told she had a Scooby Doo meme about "unmasking the villain" on her phone.

I remember that Becky was constantly on her phone, often taking selfies and generally showing very little interest in the match itself.” Mrs Robertson also claimed in the statement that Vardy “grabbed her” at a 2018 World Cup match to complain about her seats.

But the pressure became so much and I was getting opportunities.I think I have done all right. I was thrown into it and I have worked with it.'' I have accepted it and I have tried to cope with it. Wayne Rooney is expected to give evidence on behalf of wife Coleen at some point today. She did not believe any of her followers had passed on any of the images. I could have done it a lot worse. I was trolled as well. Claire said she suspected someone was leaking information from Coleen's account to a newspaper. Mr Rooney claims they went to a games room to sit down and have a chat.

The memes are real and perhaps the most viral of all was one which compared the footballer-turn-manager to a PE teacher who has to ‘teach a big of geography’, with Wayne earlier seen carrying the bag while wearing a blue mac coat. That’s the joke. Tomorrow we’ll see the trial of the century – or at least the month – come to a close, but while we may not miss the general hullabaloo around the court reporting, the daily outfit comparisons and the overuse of ellipses in revealing any sort of news, by George we’re gonna miss that bag, baby. But we’re not the only ones needing to know more, with our interest piqued by the mere presence of such a bag when Coleen herself – who is being sued for libel – waltzs into the court room each day with nothing more than a stylish Chanel clutch bag. Perhaps even more intriguing was that yesterday Wayne turned up to court with the bag – which appeared to hold a white folder of, which we can only assume, great importance – but was seen leaving the High Court without it. Today the bag returned for day six of the trial, with Wayne, in a suit, striding defiantly, powerfully, past photographers on the Strand with the magical carrier in his right hand, a knowing smile on his face.

“Whilst it was obviously upsetting Coleen, I didn’t want to get involved. “I think Becky had some kind of column in The Sun about Euro 2016. “Again, being the person that I am, I didn’t pay a massive amount of attention to it but I hoped that the leaks would stop now that Coleen had gone public and that would be the end of the matter. “I remember she uploaded something on Twitter to make it clear that she was aware of what was happening and that she was unhappy about it. “In around January 2019, whilst we were living in the US, I recall Coleen again being distressed about the fact that private information that she had uploaded to her private Instagram account was being leaked to The Sun. “I was then asked during a press conference about the fact that I had spoken to Jamie about Becky’s media activities.

She said ‘If you go, we are over.’ I wanted to celebrate one of the pinnacles of my career but I couldn’t." Luke, who has met Jamie on a few occasions, added: "I feel sorry for him because it’s all about control with Becky. It’s my way or the highway with her. "We had a shop: I put £10,000 in it, a loan from my dad. She refused to work there, saying she wouldn’t do it for free and that it was boring. She wanted the biggest house on the street, expensive handbags. "Becky liked the finer things in life.

"I was forced into doing something I didn't want to do," she told the packed wood-panelled courtroom, blaming her ex-husband for making her do the interview. Vardy has accepted that Watt might be responsible, but denied any knowledge or authorising her to do so, Tomlinson said. She turned detective to try to find out who the culprit was. He suggested that Vardy had used her agent Watt as a "hitman" to leak the stories on her behalf. Vardy told the court she "didn't mean it to say that" and she had wanted to do a story about promoting positive body image. Facing questions from David Sherborne, Rooney's lawyer, Vardy agreed leaking private, personal information was wrong.
