The longer time you spend on social media, the more people you will have annoyed, writes Sunny Hundal.

That’s my theory. Since I can’t expect everyone to agree with everything I say, the equation is simple: more opinions = more haters. And as someone who has been very online and very opinionated for about 20 years, believe me I have accumulated a lot of haters.

There are around half a dozen key figures in the case, including lesser known names such as Caroline Watt and David Sherborne.

We have compiled a hand guide to the individuals involved:

After months of legal wrangling, the much anticipated “Wagatha Christie” High Court libel trial is set to conclude.

The final day of court proceedings begins on Thursday at 10.30am.

Barristers for both women are expected to give their closing speeches at the Royal Courts Of Justice.

The Wagatha Christie burst into the public conciousness on 19 October 2019 when Coleen Rooney took to Twitter to issue an astonishing attack on Rebekah Vardy, accusing her of betraying her confidence in pursuit of personal gain.

Barristers for both Coleen Rooney and Rebekah Vardy are expected to give their closing speeches on the final day of the case on Thursday, after a break today.

Rooney accused Vardy of leaking “false stories” about her private life in October 2019 after she said she carried out a months-long “sting operation” which saw her dubbed “Wagatha Christie”.

Vardy denies the allegations and has sued the fellow footballer’s wife for damages for libel over the “untrue and unjustified defamatory attack”.

There will be no hearing today at the High Court in Rebekah Vardy’s libel trial against Coleen Rooney.

It is expected that both Hugh Tomlinson QC, for Rebekah Vardy, and David Sherborne, for Coleen Rooney, will give their closing speeches on Thursday.

Mrs Justice Steyn is expected to give her decision in writing at a later date.

Jamie Vardy has accused his former England teammate Wayne Rooney of “talking nonsense” in his evidence to the Wagatha Christie trial.

Rooney had told the High Court the team’s manager Roy Hodgson asked him to speak to the Leicester City striker to get him to “calm down” his wife Rekebah during Euro 2016.

In a statement issued by Vardy’s representatives outside the hearing, the footballer said: “Wayne is talking nonsense.

“He must be confused because he never spoke to me about issues concerning Becky’s media work at Euro 2016.

“There was nothing to speak about, I know this because I discuss everything with Becky.”
