She came for Wagatha and she lost.

What an absolute waste of money for both sides.

Well, Rooney saw her enemy humiliated in court and will get some of her legal fees paid, so she might have gotten value for money.

True, but I saw something saying it would be up to 70% of her fees predicting she'd spent £1million, so it's still like £300,000.

Still yeah, she'll be feeling a lot better about it than Vardy, who instigated it.

It likely is based on when she made the first offer that was rejected.

Can you imagine what was in the texts they destroyed/lost, with all the horrible shit she said in the texts that were handed over? A poisonous person and a delicious outcome.

The texts about Vardy calling Rooney a c*nt and using the anniversary of her sister's death as an excuse to get in touch with her ... how did she think it was a good idea to sue Rooney and have it all exposed? Her legal team must have warned her against legal action. Just bonkers

Apparently they did advise her against it (as did Rooney’s lawyers with her, though she had less choice given she was defending and Vardy wouldn’t settle)

I'm 100% sure they did, and several times. I'm flabbergasted that she went ahead with it anyway, knowing the contents of the texts they were able to retrieve.

This courtroom sketch is brutal

The most devastating thing about this case for Rebekah Vardy must surely be this court sketch. Brutal. #WAGATHA pic.twitter.com/42sqEUB5RS
