Coleen Rooney grabs a coffee and enjoys socially distanced chat with footballer Phil Bardsley’s brother Josh… as her WAG war with Rebekah Vardy heats up further

Coleen Rooney stepped out for a coffee on Friday and enjoyed a chat with footballer Phil Bardsley’s brother Josh in Cheshire. 

The WAG, 34, kept it casual in tight black leggings and a grey T-shirt as she grabbed a hot drink and laughed and smiled while chatting away. 

The outing comes after it was revealed Coleen is ‘disappointed’ that her nemesis Vardy, 38, has decided to take their war to court.

The battle could cost each side £500k in legal fees. 

Paul Lunt from Coleen’s legal team Brabners, said in a statement on Tuesday: ‘It is disappointing that Mrs Vardy has chosen to issue court proceedings. 

‘Coleen feels that the time and money involved could be put to better use; her offer to meet face to face still stands. 

‘Mrs Vardy’s decision to issue court proceedings does at least mean that Coleen’s evidence can be made public when the time is right.’

The WAGs have been at loggerheads after Coleen publicly accused Becky’s Instagram account of leaking stories about her last year – something which she vehemently denies. 

Becky is said to have filed paperwork, claiming her ex friend Coleen libelled or slandered her on social media when she posted the serious allegation. 

Last month, the pair held a video meeting in a last-ditch attempt to avoid a very public and expensive court hearing, yet it ended in a bitter deadlock.

It is now said it could cost each side £500,000 in legal fees, but Becky is ‘completely determined to clear her name at any cost’.

A source told The Sun: ‘Becky has made it clear to Coleen that she is deadly serious about clearing her name, and wants a full public apology.

‘It’s not about money. As far as Becky is concerned, she wants her costs and vindication. But since Coleen still refuses to agree to an apology, she’s gone ahead with filing the paperwork at the High Court.

‘It’s a very expensive thing to do and the expectation is costs could run towards half a million pounds for each side but she’s completely determined to clear her name at any cost.’
