Coleen Rooney has made a pointed final comment about her long-standing WAG rival, Rebekah Vardy, as she wrapped up her stint on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!, where she finished as runner-up.
Throughout her time in the jungle, Coleen’s wit and sharp sense of humor were on full display, and it was clear that she had no intention of letting bygones be bygones when it came to Rebekah.
In a final jibe before leaving the jungle, Coleen appeared to make a veiled dig at Rebekah, referencing their infamous legal battle and history of public spats, leaving fans wondering if their rivalry
had simmered down or if it was still very much alive. After weeks of enduring grueling challenges, uncomfortable living conditions, and emotional highs and lows, Coleen Rooney’s I’m A Celeb journey
was finally coming to an end. But, true to form, the wife of footballer Wayne Rooney couldn’t resist a last word on Rebekah. The rivalry between the two WAGs has been well-documented over the years,
culminating in a very public courtroom drama in 2020 when Coleen accused Rebekah of leaking personal stories to the press,
a claim that Rebekah vehemently denied. Despite the verdict in Rebekah’s favor, Coleen’s remark in the final days of her jungle stint served as a subtle reminder of the ongoing tension between the two.
While Coleen’s time in the jungle was largely focused on her personal growth and new friendships with fellow campmates, it was clear that she still had some unresolved feelings about the drama surrounding her and Rebekah.
As the final days of I’m A Celeb unfolded, Coleen’s jibe felt like the perfect way to express her emotions on the matter without fully rehashing the details of their past.
It was a clever, strategic move—delivered with her trademark dry wit—that added another layer to her public persona. For many viewers, it was a reminder of just how much Coleen has been through in recent years, both personally and professionally, and how she continues to handle it all with a certain level of grace and humor.
The jibe also came at a time when Coleen had proven herself to be a fierce competitor in the jungle. As a runner-up, she had earned the respect of her fellow campmates and viewers alike, not only for her ability to handle the tough physical trials but also for her ability to stay grounded in the face of emotional challenges. She showed herself to be both resilient and reflective, qualities that made her a standout contestant.
Her jibe at Rebekah, however, revealed that even in the most challenging of circumstances, she wasn’t afraid to stand her ground and speak her mind. The rivalry may have been overshadowed by other moments in the camp, but it was clear that it still loomed large in her thoughts.
After the final episode aired, many fans of the show took to social media to comment on Coleen’s last jab at Rebekah. Some viewed it as a final act of defiance, a statement of closure after years of public back-and-forth between the two women.
Others saw it as a sign that, despite everything she had been through in the jungle, Coleen was still determined to have the last word.
Whatever the interpretation, it was undeniable that the rivalry between Coleen and Rebekah has continued to captivate the public’s attention, and Coleen’s final jibe ensured that it would remain part of her story even as she exited the jungle.
In the end, Coleen Rooney’s time on I’m A Celebrity was more than just a reality TV appearance—it was an opportunity for her to show the world a different side of herself. She emerged from the experience as a relatable, strong, and multi-dimensional figure.
Yet, her final jibe at Rebekah Vardy reminded us all that the drama surrounding the WAGs was far from over.
It may have been a passing comment in the grand scheme of things, but it was one that ensured the rivalry would remain a lingering part of Coleen’s public narrative.
