Times were simpler in October of 2019.
“It’s………. Rebekah Vardy’s account.”
When Coleen Rooney tweeted those now infamous words, she sparked a scandal.
But whilst social media exploded, catapulting ‘WAGs’ back into the spotlight, few could have predicted that the moment would launch a million-pound lawsuit.
In this new BBC Radio 5 Live podcast, comedian and TikTok star Abi Clarke will take listeners on a deep-dive into the football matches, tabloid headlines and WhatsApp messages behind the feud.
It’s… Wagatha Christie will trace the story back to the WAG culture of the early noughties and Rebekah Vardy’s rise to fame, before exploring the key events that would lead to October 9th, 2019.
Along the way, Abi will be joined by a cast of lawyers, private investigators, crisis managers and WAGs who will help her connect the dots.
