Jamie Carpenter KC, for Mrs. Vardy, claimed that Coleen Rooney and her legal team 'deliberately understated' some of his client's costs in the libel battle, but a judge ruled that Mrs. Rooney's lawyers did not commit misconduct.
Rebekah Vardy 's lawyer is expected to appeal a ruling against her, after Coleen Rooney scored a fresh victory in the Wagatha Christie case. Barristers for Mrs Rooney and Mrs Vardy have returned to the High Court in a dispute over how much Mrs Vardy should pay in legal costs after she lost their libel battle in 2022.
He said that while there was a "failure to be transparent", it was not "sufficiently unreasonable or improper" to constitute misconduct. In 2019, Mrs Rooney, the wife of former Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney, accused Mrs Vardy of leaking her private information to the press on social media, which Mrs Justice Steyn found in July 2022 was "substantially true".
