The Derby manager was approached by then-gaffer Roy Hogdson and assistant manager Gary Neville, who were both England captains at the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rebekah Vardy had been the subject of “bad media publicity” and “problems,” according to Wayne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“They asked me, as captain, would I be able to speak to Mr Vardy on concerns affecting his wife, and I think we all understood that it was a delicate subject,” he said the High Court during the Wagatha Christie trial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’d need to communicate with Mr Vardy and ask him to speak with his wife and to tell her to calm down.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For the talk, Wayne claimed he sat in the games room and drank coffee with Jamie, who was drinking a can of Red Bull.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“It was an awkward situation for me, and I’m sure it was an awkward one for Mr Vardy,” he said, “but I believed it was in the team’s best interests.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rebekah was “nearly there with the team” during “down time,” according to the ex-Manchester United star, who was on Facetime with Jamie during the tournament in France.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wayne also admitted that he and his Three Lions comrade have never been “especially friendly.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The disclosures occurred as Jamie sat yards away from his former teammate in court for the first time, supporting Rebekah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After Coleen claimed Rebekah, 39, of leaking stories to the press, Wayne was drawn into the Wagatha feud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
He added today that he “didn’t want to get involved,” but that Coleen’s ordeal has been “very terrible.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I’ve watched my wife battle with everything that’s gone on over the past two, two and a half years… become a different mother, a different wife,” Wayne continued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“This isn’t something we want to be a part of,” my wife says. “Hopefully, whatever the judgment is, my wife and our children can get on with their lives.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It comes as Coleen said yesterday that their 14-year marriage hasn’t always been easy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rebekah’s lawyer, Hugh Tomlinson QC, referred to Wayne’s 2017 drink-driving charge, in which he was discovered driving a party girl’s car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The barrister said their relationship was in “another apparent crisis” and that the ex-Manchester United star had been “misbehaving.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
