SHE may have lost her libel court battle against fellow Wag Coleen Rooney, but Rebekah Vardy made sure she had the last word, or two.
As we revealed yesterday, Becky, 41, has trademarked the phrase “Wagatha Christie” – coined in 2019 after Coleen accused her of selling stories – to stop her rival and others from cashing in.
