Rebekah Vardy left the courtroom crying after a tense exchange with Coleen Rooney's barrister during their libel trial.David Sherborne, for Rooney, had been questioning Vardy about one of the fake posts Rooney posted on her private Instagram account as part of her Wagatha Christie sting.Mr Sherborne misspoke and said it was Vardy who had "gone to Mexico to look at gender selection" to which she responded: "It wasn't me who went to Mexico, it was Mrs Rooney."The lawyer said: "Is that your best point?"Vardy's lawyer Hugh Tomlinson QC then stood up and said: "Mr Sherborne keeps making remarks and if the witness is in the box for a long time it can be unpleasant."Mrs Justice Steyn, who is hearing the trial, said: "It is unnecessary."She added the court did "not have time" for the remarks and cross-examination resumed for a few seconds before she asked Vardy if she wanted a break.Vardy nodded and grabbed a handful of tissues before leaving the courtroom for several minutes.Mr Sherborne asked Vardy about Rooney's first fake post.She put up a photo of the back of an aeroplane seat captioned: Let's go and see what this gender selection is all about.'' Mr Sherborne asked: "You saw the gender selection post didn't you?"Vardy said: "No.'' whilst Sherborne said only Vardy's account saw it.

Vardy said: "That's what it says but I don't recall seeing this.''Sherborne suggested she screenshot the image and forwarded it to Caroline Watt to pass on to the newspaper.No, that's not true,'' she replied.

Vardy accepted she had known from other Rooney posts she had been to Mexico. A story later appeared saying Rooney had flown to Mexico to look into gender selection.
