Today is day five of the so-called 'Wagatha Christie' libel battle between Rebekah Vardy and Coleen Rooney at the High Court.

Coleen Rooney has finished giving evidence and further witnesses will be called on Monday afternoon.

Mrs Rooney has accused Rebekah Vardy of leaking "false stories" about her private life in October 2019 after carrying out a months-long "sting operation".

Mrs Vardy denies any involvement in the leaks and is suing the fellow footballer's wife for libel over the "untrue and unjustified defamatory attack".
