In the video promoting her new book, Coleen said: ‘My new book is about my account of my life over the last few years, but it also goes back to my childhood.

“I feel like this is the right time to have my say, I feel like people have had their say and their say, but now it’s my turn.

‘I loved going back to my childhood memories, I was lucky enough to have a great upbringing and it was so fun to look back on that.

‘Overall I really enjoyed the writing process. I’ve had ups and downs in my life and it was sometimes difficult to write about them, but overall it made me realize what the real values ​​of life are.’

In Coleen’s book, she talks candidly about why she decided to stand by her husband Wayne after he was embroiled in multiple fraud scandals, and also revealed that the two tragically suffered a miscarriage during their first pregnancy.

In her book, Coleen wrote: ‘Wayne is a wonderful father. Every time he went off the rails it was a stupid, drunken, spontaneous event.”

‘My message is: if there is something to work on, if the love is still there, why throw it away? Mistakes were made, but I always knew Wayne loved me.”

Recalling their miscarriage heartbreak, she added: “A horrible experience that took Wayne six hours.”

She also explained the depression Wayne has suffered at times, due to the pressure he has faced since signing for Everton at a young age.

“To this day he still has it – everyone carries it,” she said. ‘Not to see what he does right, but to see what he does wrong. It is a shame.’

‘Whatever control I got, [Wayne] had it tenfold… he will drink to erase it all and escape the world. What happens, of course, is the opposite.

The TV personality hopes to ‘tell her side of the story’ in the upcoming autobiography.

Publisher Penguin stated: ‘Here she tells the story of how she first suspected someone had betrayed her trust (and how devastated it left her), and then the painstaking steps she took to identify, trap and ultimately reveal her suspect to the world to reveal.

“As the fallout plays out across the world and Coleen unwittingly finds herself in a devastating court case whose outcome was far from certain, she can only now candidly tell us her side of the story.”

Coleen added in the press release: ‘It was the biggest thing that had ever happened to me, and like nothing I had ever experienced.

‘Looking back on it now, it still amazes me how bloated it all became, how ridiculous, how serious. That’s why I have to give a full account of what happened.”

The title could be a nod to the tweet that started it all, in which Coleen revealed that ‘Rebekah Vardy’s account’ was the only one to see fake stories of hers that somehow ended up in the press.

Wagatha Christie is a portmanteau of WAG and Agatha Christie, a famous crime fiction writer who specializes in whodunits.

Coleen’s book follows a television drama, Channel 4’s Vardy v Rooney: A Courtroom Drama, a play, Vardy v Rooney: The Wagatha Christie Trial, and the two-part Discovery+ documentary Vardy v Rooney: The Wagatha Trial.

Last month, a drama documentary about the story and trial telling Rooney’s side of the story was released on Disney+.
