Jamie Vardy taunted 'your wife is a grass' at match after Wagatha Christie trial

Jamie Vardy was taunted by Manchester United fans during the team's win over Leicester at Old Trafford over the weekend.

Fans poked fun at Rebekah Vardy's famous trial against Coleen Rooney after she took Wayne's wife to court for libel and lost.

The case was dubbed Wagatha Christie and even became a TV show and West End production.

Although the Vardy family and Rooney family put the trial behind them, fans haven't forgotten the drama.

They were heard chanting 'Jamie Vardy, your wife is a grass' a few seconds after he came off the bench to replace Kelechi Iheanacho late in the game.

'Rooney, Rooney, Rooney' was then chanted as a tribute to Wayne.

It comes after Rebekah decided to sidestep career and make it as a documentary host.

The mum-of-five - who is married to 36-year-old footballer Jamie - is picking up the pieces after she lost a highly publicised defamation case against fellow WAG, Coleen.

TV fans will be able to see Rebekah investigating the world of Jehovah’s Witnesses in a new documentary series.

The star will travel across the UK to meet and interview members of Britain’s Jehovah’s Witness community - meeting those who follow and used to follow the religion.

A source told The Sun on Sunday of the star’s plans: “Rebekah has been inundated with TV offers, but turned down everything to do with the Wagatha Christie trial as she wants to move on.

“She has decided to make this documentary as it’s completely different and a topic she cares strongly about.

“It could be the start of a new career move for her and she's excited.”

The new career move came less than a year after Rebekah lost her defamation trial against Coleen Rooney.

In July last year, the judge ruled in Coleen's favour following a seven-day trial at High Court.

Rebekah said she was "extremely sad and disappointed" by the decision, and she did not accept it nor believe it "was just".

She brought Coleen to court following a two-and-a-half year feud, when Coleen, 36, said she had carried out a "sting operation" and accused Rebekah's account of leaking "false stories" about her private life to the press in the now-viral Instagram post. Rebekah, 40, has always vehemently denied Coleen's accusations.
