Coleen Rooney says her husband Wayne played a key role in helping her expose Rebekah Vardy.
Coleen has revealed how she was able to identify Rebekah as the person who leaked her details of her life to The Sun.
The 37-year-old Wag was able to pinpoint Rebekah as she posted a series of false claims on her private Instagram account.
The social media page was only visible to the 41-year-old as Coleen tricked her into thinking she was travelling to Mexico to look into 'baby gender selection'.

The story was picked up by The Sun, which revealed Rebekah to be the leak.
Coleen also revealed that Wayne secretly underwent a vasectomy after the couple decided their family was complete following the birth of Cass in 2018.
The gender selection was the ideal fake story after the Manchester United legend's medical procedure.
Speaking in the Disney+ documentary about the Wagatha Christie trial, she said: "After the birth of every one of my kids the press is always interested if I'm going to have another baby and it's always, 'would you like a girl?'
"I always thought I'd have a few kids, maybe three at the most, but then number four came along and we knew our family was complete then."
Coleen added: "Me and Wayne talked about him having a vasectomy. He said after this baby that's it we're not having anymore and Wayne went in and got the snip so I knew for sure we wouldn't have any more children.
"I'd heard about this procedure where you could choose the gender of your children but it's something I'd never considered doing so I came up with this idea about doing a story."
