Rebekah Vardy has hit back at claims that her business, Wagatha Christie, has failed to make a profit. She instead insists that she is keen to make her businesses a success.
This follows claims that the 42-year-old star was left "humiliated" due to not being able to make a profit, but her spokesperson has said that this is far from the truth and that Rebekah is fed up with hearing such opinions, reports the Mirror.
Under her company name Wagatha Christie International Ltd, the star - who is married to footballer Jamie Vardy - is planning to launch a lifestyle brand. The term Wagatha Christie, which Rebekah has trademarked, was used to refer to a trail between herself and Coleen Rooney.
Rebekah tried to sue Coleen for libel - publishing false statements that are damaging to the person - as she had accused Rebekah of leaking her private information to the press. The legal case ended up favouring Coleen, but Rebekah remains unwavering in her stance that she is innocent.
Friends of Rebekah have said: "Rebekah is adamant that the judgement against her was on a technicality and circumstantial evidence. To this day she knows in her heart that she didn’t do it."
In terms of her business, a spokesperson has confirmed that the star is ready to make her company a success. They said: "The time has not been right to launch this business but Rebekah is now wanting to move forward in her life and make a success of this business.
"She has had many requests for Wagatha related business opportunities and has had to fight off attempts by others to cash in on what was a most serious time in her life. She is fed up with the constant sniping at her from some sectors and it is only her resilience that has enabled her to handle the insults and untruths thrown at her. "
They continued to explain that Rebekah's business is currently dormant: "Claims made that she was humiliated because her company failed to make a profit is just laughable as everyone knows that a dormant company means the company is not trading so how can she make a profit when she is not trading.
"As for their claim of legal defeat on the now registered trademarks, this claim is categorically false. She has never ever faced any legal defeat nor amended or removed any items 'Towels' or 'Bed Linen' as suggested." Rebekah is said to be working behind the scenes to launch the business very soon.

The lifestyle brand is not the star's first step on the business ladder, as last year she decided to launch a vodka range called SKTL with her friend and former footballer Dennis Wise. The idea was inspired by her husband's love for homemade vodka.
The drink seemed to do well with the Gen Z market, who liked its fancy bottle and sweet taste. It now has a fruity range to widen its appeal, and it was used to celebrate Leicester City's Premier League win back in 2016.
