Jamie Vardy is blasted by Coleen Rooney's lawyer for REFUSING to give evidence in £3M Wagatha Christie libel trial... but being 'perfectly willing' to issue PR statement attacking Wayne Rooney OUTSIDE court

Jamie Vardy was today blasted by Coleen Rooney's lawyer for failing to give evidence under oath on the bombastic final day of the Wagatha Christie case where his wife Rebekah was accused of lying to the High Court.

Celebrity lawyer David Sherborne claimed Mrs Vardy's case had 'disintegrated' during the week-long trial in an eviscerating attack on the wife of Premier League footballer at the Royal Courts of Justice.

And Mr Vardy also came in for criticism, with Mr Sherborne accusing him of not being willing to be called as a witness so he could avoid giving evidence under oath.
