After months of public scrutiny and media silence, Rebekah Vardy has broken cover in the most festive way possible, taking her family to London’s Winter Wonderland. This marks her first public appearance since her rival, Coleen Rooney, entered the “I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here” jungle, and it was a night filled with contrasts—while Rebekah seemed to be embracing the holiday cheer, her husband, Jamie Vardy, appeared to be less than thrilled.

The Winter Wonderland Outing
On a chilly Wednesday evening, Rebekah, dressed warmly in a furry jacket, cream jumper, and matching suede boots, was spotted at the popular winter destination with part of her blended family. The Vardy family, including their two sons, Taylor and Finley, aged seven, as well as their daughter Olivia, aged four, were enjoying the magical atmosphere of the Hyde Park Winter Wonderland. Rebekah looked positively delighted as she took her children on various carnival rides, including the iconic swing ride and rollercoasters.

Meanwhile, her husband Jamie, wearing a black jacket, accompanied their daughter Olivia on the swing ride. However, his expression suggested he wasn’t exactly enjoying the outing as much as his wife. With a look of discomfort, Jamie seemed less enthusiastic about the festivities, especially as he gripped the bar during the ride.
The Absence of the Rest of the Family
Interestingly, Rebekah’s two daughters from previous relationships, Megan and Taylor, were noticeably absent from the outing, as was Jamie’s daughter, Ella, whom he shares with his ex-partner Emma Daggett. The omission of these children raised eyebrows, leaving fans wondering whether there were tensions behind the scenes or if it was just a simple case of different schedules.

A New Chapter Amidst Old Tensions
Rebekah’s return to the public eye comes just as Coleen Rooney has become a star contestant on ITV’s “I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here.” This new chapter in the ongoing feud between the two has sparked media attention once again, and Rebekah isn’t holding back her thoughts.
In her exclusive column for The Sun, Rebekah has been openly commenting on the “I’m A Celeb” cast, and naturally, much of her attention has been focused on Coleen, her long-time nemesis. The two women’s bitter feud began in 2019 when Coleen accused Rebekah of leaking private posts from her Instagram account to The Sun. The fallout led to a high-profile libel trial in 2022, which has since become known in the media as “Wagatha Christie.”
The Legal Battle
The trial, which took place in London in May 2022, ended with the court ruling that Coleen’s accusations were “substantially true”, effectively vindicating her. As a result, Rebekah was not only ordered to pay her own legal fees but also the majority of Coleen’s legal costs, which is estimated to be around £3 million. This public defeat has been a significant blow for Rebekah, but she hasn’t let it silence her. Over the years, both women have made digs at one another, and Rebekah has continued to take swipes at her rival whenever the opportunity arises.
Rebekah’s Scathing Column
In her latest column, Rebekah didn’t hold back when commenting on Coleen’s appearance in the “I’m A Celebrity” jungle. She described her hope that Coleen would eventually have to “eat humble pie” and accused BBC Radio 1 presenter Dean McCullough of committing the “ultimate sin” during a recent challenge. During a task on Tuesday’s episode, Dean was locked inside a mummy figurine and faced a terrifying combination of giant mealworms, crickets, and sand. Overcome by fear, Dean screamed the infamous phrase, “I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!” and was promptly removed from the figurine.
Rebekah did not mince words in her response. She wrote: “Dean, you really let the camp down last night. There’s nothing worse than failing a trial, but to scream ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!’ is just a no.” She continued, “You literally just have to force yourself through these trials. Everyone’s starving, and I’m totally relying on you to succeed. I can’t believe he actually tapped out.”
Her strong opinions and scathing remarks are a reflection of her fiery personality, especially when it comes to Coleen and the ongoing tensions between them.
Rebekah’s Strategic Public Appearances
Rebekah’s decision to step out and take her family to Winter Wonderland could be seen as a strategic move to shift the public’s focus away from the media frenzy surrounding Coleen’s time on “I’m A Celebrity…” By enjoying a family outing at a popular, feel-good event, Rebekah may be attempting to regain some control over her narrative. It’s no secret that the public loves a bit of drama, and with her ongoing rivalry with Coleen, Rebekah has found herself at the center of it.
Her appearance at the Winter Wonderland event also comes on the heels of a recent spat she had with a fan. On social media, she had a heated exchange where she bluntly told one fan to “p*ss off” after they made an unwanted comment about her feud with Coleen. Her fiery temper, coupled with her candidness, ensures that the public remains intrigued by her every move.
Jamie Vardy’s Discomfort
While Rebekah may have been smiling and having fun with her children, her husband Jamie appeared to be in a less than jovial mood. Despite being dressed warmly, his discontent was noticeable as he accompanied Olivia on the swing ride. The couple’s body language suggested that Jamie, known for his serious nature and focus on his football career, might not have been too thrilled about participating in what he may have perceived as a public spectacle. His discomfort could also stem from the ongoing media attention surrounding his wife and her feud with Coleen, something that likely isn’t easy for him to ignore.
Despite this, the couple appeared to be making the best of their outing, with Rebekah leading the way with her usual confidence. The kids seemed to be enjoying themselves, and Rebekah’s energy was infectious as she laughed and chatted with them on the rides.
The Future of the Feud
As Coleen continues her stint on “I’m A Celebrity,” it seems that the feud between the two will not die down anytime soon. In fact, it’s likely that the rivalry will continue to provide ample media fodder for months to come. With Rebekah continuing to make her thoughts known through her columns, and Coleen holding her ground in the jungle, the battle between these two WAGs seems far from over.
It will be interesting to see how this public showdown plays out, especially with both women seemingly determined to have the last word. For now, however, it seems that Rebekah is enjoying the Christmas season with her family, even if her husband Jamie is less than thrilled about the whole affair. As for Coleen, her journey in the jungle is just beginning, and it’s clear that the tension between these two women will only intensify as the weeks go by.
