Rebekah Vardy's legal claim against Coleen Rooney for libel is starting in London's High Court.

If a court case has its own nickname, it is a clear sign that it is going to attract a lot of interest.

Both players were picked for the Euros in 2016 and famously the papers were full of shots of their wives cheering them on from the stands.Now Coleen Rooney and Rebekah Vardy are going head-to-head in a civil case where the legal costs could be far greater than any damages that might be awarded at the end.

"Once someone's taken a stand and said, 'I'm right, you're wrong,' in a very public way - to a six figure Twitter following - it's a very big climb down to say 'I was wrong'."He estimates that the legal costs for each side will be upwards of £1 million and that even the winner will only recover about 70% of their legal bill, leaving them with around £300,000 still to pay.

Then in a lengthy Tweet she claimed that "I blocked everyone from viewing my Instagram stories expect One Account," before delivering the pay-off "It's……….Rebekah Vardy's account." "Brands go into partnerships with celebrities to build consumer loyalty, ultimately increase sales and have a positive PR around associating with that person," he explains. "For both these ladies the impact is huge, especially in the short run here. They could be losing hundreds of thousands of pounds alone, just from being involved in his case."

Why is the BBC giving this such a high profile? Shouldn’t it be concentrating on quality news and leave this for the gossip magazines?

Shame they haven't got better things to do with their time/money. Should have sorted between themselves. Only winners will be the lawyers! Life is much too short for petty squabbles
