Former England football star Wayne Rooney’s wife, Coleen, is reportedly keen to end her ongoing court battle with another England footballer, Jamie Vardy’s wife, Rebekah. Around three years ago, Coleen, 35, had accused Rebekah, 40, of leaking stories about her to the media. Rebekah denied the  claim and sued Coleen for libel. A trial is set to take place in May. However, it is learnt that Coleen is not happy about the image the court case is portraying to the world during these times of humanitarian crisis (Covid-19, Ukraine war).

“Coleen is the one being sued by Rebekah, and she’s just defending herself, but she knows how this appears to some people, especially at the moment. She didn’t want it to go this far, but now it looks like she’s spending all this money on a falling out, while people are facing a humanitarian crisis. The case is due to go to court in weeks, but she feels the public are starting to turn, and on top of all the fees, she knows it’s not the greatest look,” a source told  British news website, heatworld.com.
