Wagatha Christie case with the recklessness of recovering crack addicts who’ve just received an invitation to the next Brits afterparty, I was quietly catching up on Ted Lasso. But finally, the Trial of the Decade (apart from the Heard/Depp, the Meghan/Mail and Ghislaine Maxwell’s) reeled me in with Rebekah Vardy’s lemon coloured, tweed, Chanel-esque suit by Alessandra Rich. There was just so much pain, longing, aspiration and ultimately, self-delusion stitched into its pristine white embroidered trim that it became impossible to pretend that everyone on our planet is as kind as lovable as Ted.

Rebekah Vardy at the moment as the Wagatha Christie trial continues, a combination between the WAG and Duchess of Sussex Meghan Markle would still have been difficult to predict.With one married into the Royal family with her husband Prince Harry and one married to premier league champion Jamie Vardy, it is hard to see how they would be combined.Despite it appearing that their lives are worlds apart, they actually have quite a lot of similarities.Of course currently Rebekah is currently involved in the high-profile Wagatha Christie legal battle with fellow WAG Colleen Rooney, whilst Meghan had her own legal battle with the Mail On Sunday.During the ongoing Wagatha case, judge Mrs Justice Steyn quoted part of the privacy case involving the Duchess of Sussex in regards to the striking out of certain parts of evidence, reports The Mirror.But the most surprising link of all is that Meghan was reportedly being lined up to play Rebekah in a Hollywood movie back in 2016.Off the back of Jamie Vardy's incredible rise from non-league football to Premier League champion, there were plans to create a big budget biopic.Jamie started his football career at non-league team Stocksbridge Park Steels and also played for Halifax Town and Fleetwood Town before joining Leicester for £1million in 2012.LA-based Brit Adrian Butchart, a producer and writer, agreed to make the movie with the Oscar-winning producers of The King’s Speech Gareth-Ellis Unwin and Simon Egan and their company Bedlam Productions.But the making of the film has been delayed, which means Meghan likely won't be taking on the role as she has abandoned her acting career.The Suits actress was only dating Prince Harry at the time but the pair have since married before enjoying
