Everything you’ve missed in the Rebekah Vardy vs Coleen Rooney Wagatha Christie libel trial – day by day

Rebekah Vardy’s ex-husband has spoken out about the infamous interview in which she referred to Peter Andre’s ‘chipolata’, and denies having any involvement.  During her tense High Court libel battle with Coleen Rooney this month, Vardy was quizzed about a newspaper interview she once gave to the News of the World about her alleged sexual encounter with Andre. In the interview, Vardy, 40, made disparaging remarks about Andre’s penis and compared it to a ‘miniature chipolata’. While giving testimony in the witness box, the former I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here star alleged: ‘I was forced into a situation by my ex-husband to do this. It is something that I deeply regret.’At the time, Vardy was in a relationship with her boss at a timeshare company, Steve Clarke, who later went on to become her second husband. However, Clarke has vehemently denied having any involvement in setting up the interview or pushing Vardy to do so. ‘Becky said to me, “Oh look, I should tell them about Peter Andre”,’ Clarke told the Mail On Sunday, recalling the moment Vardy saw a News of the World request looking for people with stories about contestants in an upcoming series of I’m A Celeb. He continued: ‘I asked her why she would want to do that and she replied that it would be a bit of money for her and it would be funny.

It was like a ­miniature chipolata.” Everyone giggled that day — Wednesday, March 10, 2004 — at the photographic studio in Clapham, South London, where the now Mrs Vardy had come to reveal all about her brief romance with the Mysterious Girl singer after he had appeared on I’m A Celebrity.
