Meghan Markle's privacy case judge to preside over another legal battle between two celebrities

Meghan Markle's privacy case judge Justice Warby will reportedly head Coleen Rooney and Becky Vardy's libel trial'.

Justice Warby has reportedly been put in charge of Coleen, wife of Wayne Rooney, and fellow WAG Rebekah Vardy's libel trial following the Wagatha Christie scandal of last year.

The 62-year-old Judge,  who's responsible for Meghan Markle's privacy case involving her dad Thomas, will hear arguments in a preliminary hearing on Thursday, which is expected to last half a day.

The Judge will reportedly be drafted in for the opening of the trial this week at the High Court in London. He is reportedly able to take on the case after a privacy trial between Meghan and a tabloid, which printed a letter from her to her father, was postponed for nine months.

Becky, wife of Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy, is suing Coleen  over an Instagram post she made in October last year.

Coleen allegedly accused Becky's Instagram account of leaking stories about her to the press, writing in her post: 'It’s . . . Rebekah Vardy’s account.'

The judge’s ruling will set out what Coleen and Becky must prove to win the case.

To be awarded the significant damages, Rebekah will have to specifically prove her libel claim against the former Manchester United hero's other half .

Rebekah will star on Dancing On Ice 2021 and previously claimed she wanted to take part in the ITV competition in a bid to 'clear her name'.
