Rebekah Vardy rages at 'irritating' I'm A Celeb star for 'cosying up to' Coleen Rooney

I'm a Celeb: Coleen Rooney discusses Wagatha case

Rebekah Vardy unleashed fury at BBC Radio 1 presenter Dean McCullough during his recent conversation on I’m A Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here!

The 42-year-old slammed the ITV star for “cosying up to” her rival Coleen Rooney in her brutal attack.

In her I’m A Celeb column for The Sun, Rebekah labelled Dean as “irritating” and claimed his frequent references to her Wagatha Christie trial were to ensure he got airtime.

She raged: “Oh Dean, Dean and his cosying up to Coleen, I’m actually really glad he got voted in the trial becasue actually I find him really, really irritating. Give it a rest mate.”

In Tuesday’s episode, the DJ will enter the Sinister Sarcophagus in hopes of winning stars and ensuring his campmates have a meal.

In the trial he will be tasked with answering questions relating to Egypt and as the container begins filling up with critters.

During Monday’s episode, Coleen opened up about the infamous Wagatha Christie trial, in which she faced a libel lawsuit against Rebekah, calling it her “worst nightmare.”

When asked about the social media buzz surrounding the case, the socialite shared: “I just didn’t think it would have the impact it did, because I was just that sick and tired of it, it was draining.”

Coleen continued: “That was my worst nightmare to go to court, I felt like it was like putting on a show for the whole world.”

She stated that it was “really disappointing” how the saga became “a bit of a joke," before adding: “No one knew the full story.”

When Dean questioned her about the term “Wagatha Christie,” and asked: “Who owns it?”

Coleen chuckled in response, as Loose Women’s Jane Moore explained to the radio presenter: “That’s a whole other… she does.”
