Rebekah and Jamie Vardy leave court after sixth trial day

Rebekah Vardy has denied reports she is to leave the UK for the United States alongside her husband, Leicester City striker Jamie.

It had been reported that the Vardys were thought to be making plans to move before the Wagatha Christie libel trial against Coleen Rooney came to court, but Rebekah has stated the claims are “categorically untrue”.

A spokesman for Rebekah Vardy said: “The story in The Sun newspaper claiming the Vardy family are planning to move to the United States is categorically untrue.”

The expensive court case is heading towards a conclusion and Rebekah, who brought the case against Coleen over claims that she had leaked stories about her, has been looking increasingly more emotional as the days in court rack up.

Alongside her husband Jamie, Rebekah left court early on Tuesday before an IT expert said during his testimony that Rebekah’s account had not been hacked and that messages to her agent were “manually deleted”

Cyber expert Matt Blackband told the court that Rebekah had changed her Instagram password five days after Coleen Wagatha Christie reveal post.

Mr Blackband said that the password had been changed at 3.23am on October 14 2019 and told the court: “From what we have seen there is no evidence of a compromise on that account.”

Mrs Rooney’s barrister, David Sherborne said two batches of WhatsApp messages between Rebekah Vardy and Caroline Watt had been lost.

Mrs Vardy has said the first group – between 2017 and 2019 – vanished when she tried to send them to her solicitor.

Mr Sherborne asked what was the most likely explanation for the absence of WhatsApp messages between October 15 2019 25 July 2020.

Mr Blackband replied: “Based on the information provided I would suggest it’s a manual deletion.”

Mr Sherborne said Rebekah had suggested they must have been lost when she got a new phone.

Mr Blackband replied: “There is no indication there was a new device on that date.”

The trial continues.
