Blow to Rebekah Vardy as two of her firms plunge into debt after Wagatha trial

REBEKAH Vardy’s finances have been hit hard by her Wagatha Christie legal battle — with two of her companies now in the red.

The firms owned by her and footballer husband Jamie owe just over £180,000, figures filed at Companies House show.

V9 Academy has net liabilities of £129,889 while BKYV Media’s liabilities stand at £50,209.

However, Rebekah, 42, and 37-year-old Leicester striker Jamie’s third company looks a little healthier.

VP Media film has net assets of £794,286 — albeit down from £805,088.

Becky is expected to fork out £1.5million towards Coleen Rooney’s legal bill after losing the libel fight.

And her balance may suffer further after The Sun revealed Coleen’s team are disputing the “disproportionate” 20 per cent costs they had been ordered to pay.

A judge ruled last year 37-year-old Coleen’s accusations that Rebekah had leaked stories on her to the Press were substantially true.

Coleen opened up about the courtroom saga in a documentary called The Real Wagatha Story after signing a lucrative deal with Disney+.

She also posed for Vogue magazine and released a book titled My Account.

Becky has always denied wrongdoing.

In April last year she applied to trademark the phrase “Wagatha Christie” and in August set up a firm called Wagatha Christie International — but it is yet to file any accounts.

Becky has given just a handful of interviews.

In April last year she applied to trademark the phrase “Wagatha Christie” to try and profit from the court clash, then in August she set up a new firm called Wagatha Christie International – but it is yet to file any accounts.

Becky has also left the spotlight largely to Coleen, conducting just a handful of interviews and instead fronting a Channel 4 documentary about Jehovah’s Witnesses.
