Rebekah Vardy suffers a fall during training for Dancing On Ice as she trips over while skating and jokes ‘this week is going AMAZINGLY well’

On Thursday morning she attended a mediation hearing with Coleen Rooney via Zoom, following the WAGatha Christie scandal.

And later that day, Rebekah Vardy, 38, suffered a fall during training for Dancing On Ice with pro partner Andy Buchanan, as she tripped over while skating.  

The wife of Leicester City striker Jamie shared a video of the incident to her Instagram account and made fun of her progress on the ice.

Preparing for her latest rehearsal ahead of Sunday’s live show, Rebekah was clad in a zip-up sports jacket and tie-dye leggings, with a safety helmet atop her head. 

The video showed the I’m A Celeb star skating behind Andy but suddenly catching the front of one of her blades on the ice, before tumbling down and sliding around on her stomach.

Sharing the moment to Instagram, the WAG added the caption: ‘This week is going AMAZINGLY well….’ followed by multiple laughing emojis. 

‘That’s why the padding is up’ commented fellow Strictly star Alexander Demetriou, with Rebekah responding: ‘and the helmet is on!’

On Thursday, Rebekah and Coleen met in an intense face-to-face mediation on Zoom as they attempted to settle their high-profile dispute, but failed to come to a resolution.  

It’s understood that Coleen, who alleges Rebekah sold private stories about her to a national newspaper, tried to reach out to the brunette after another round of failed talks to avoid a costly legal battle.

However the Dancing on Ice saw the mediation as a ‘waste of time’ as Rebekah continues to demand she apologise for accusing her of leaking stories to the press.

A source told The Sun: ‘Nothing’s changed. There’s been no progress, no chink of light at the end of the tunnel — and no prospect of avoiding court. As far as Coleen’s concerned mediation was a waste of time. 

‘Coleen won’t apologise. She’s convinced she’s right about Becky leaking stories to the press and thinks she’s made a reasonable offer. 

‘She refuses to do another mediation meeting and is now preparing for court.’

Coleen is reportedly being pressed by her inner circle to apologise and say she regrets accusing Rebekah of leaking stories about her to the press.

She has already offered a make or break offer to ‘agree to disagree’ over the pair’s row.

A source told MailOnline: ‘Rebekah is digging her heels in and wants Coleen to say sorry.

‘But Coleen has refused and she has been told by her best friends that if she does say sorry, it could lead to a resolution and bring the dispute to an end. 

‘A judge has to be told after the weekend whether the peace talks they had in mediation meetings has worked.

Where it all began: Rebekah was accused by her former friend of leaking false stories about her personal life to the media in 2019

‘If they haven’t – and Coleen has been told she holds the key – then the two women’s lawyers will have a case management conference on March 26 which will be a big step towards it all going to the High Court.’ 

Proceedings began with both sides reading out a statement and then breaking off into separate virtual rooms as the mediator spoke to them and their legal representatives independently.

However the meeting ended with both sides failing to come to a resolution.

If they remain in deadlock, then the matter will be settled at a full trial expected to take place later this year.

Rebekah launched a £1m High Court libel action after Coleen accused her in an October 2019 Instagram post of being the source of leaks to the media.
