Coleen Rooney Wagatha Christie Documentary: Release Date and Where to Watch

The highly anticipated documentary, Coleen Rooney: The Real Wagatha Story, which explores the high-profile defamation case between Coleen Rooney and Rebekah Vardy, is set to premiere soon. This docuseries will delve into the infamous ‘Wagatha Christie’ case that captured headlines in 2022, featuring exclusive interviews with Rooney and her family.

The ‘Wagatha Christie’ Case

In 2019, Coleen Rooney accused Rebekah Vardy of leaking private information about her to the press. Rooney, known for her sleuth-like tactics, published fake stories to her Instagram account and then revealed, in a now-infamous social media post, that only Vardy’s account had viewed them. Vardy denied the claims and subsequently sued Rooney for libel.

The case, marked by intense media coverage and public interest, culminated in a trial where the judge ruled in Rooney’s favor. The judge stated that it was “likely” that Vardy’s agent at the time had directly passed the information to a newspaper. Shortly after the trial, Disney+ announced the production of a documentary on the matter.

The Real Wagatha Story: What to Expect

Coleen Rooney: The Real Wagatha Story will consist of three episodes that delve into the jaw-dropping court case. The series offers exclusive access to Rooney, her family, legal team, and key players involved in the trial. It aims to uncover one of the most significant tabloid news stories in Britain over the past decade, showcasing how Rooney transformed into an amateur online detective to identify the source of the leak.

Moreover, the documentary explores the circumstances leading up to the viral Instagram post that “broke the internet,” as well as Coleen successfully defending herself in one of the UK’s highest-profile High Court defamation cases in recent years. In addition to the case itself, the series delves into how Coleen’s life has played out in the public eye for the past two decades as one of Britain’s most famous celebrities and as the wife of former England footballer Wayne Rooney.
