Coleen Rooney's lawyers did not commit misconduct over her costs in the Wagatha Christie row with Rebekah Vardy , a High Court judge has ruled.

Mrs Vardy sued Mrs Rooney for libel in 2022 but lost.

The pair are now locked in a further battle over how much Mrs Rooney should pay in legal costs.

Last October , a judge ruled Mrs Rooney's legal team had not committed wrongdoing and that, therefore, it was "not an appropriate case" to reduce the amount of money that Mrs Rooney must pay.
