Rebekah Vardy admitted getting kickbacks from photographers for pictures of herself, her family and their pets, it has recently been revealed.
The wife of Leicester City ace Jamie said she “would receive a percentage of the revenue from their syndication” to media outlets.
The revelation is in documents her lawyers filed to support her libel claim against Coleen Rooney.
The mum-of-five alleges Rooney wrongly publicly outed her as a snitch who had leaked details of her private life.

She wants damages and an order stopping the mum-of-four repeating her claim.
In legal documents filed to the High Court in London, Rooney claimed Vardy “worked with a number of agencies to bolster her public persona”.
In court documents Rooney, 34, claimed Vardy, 38, “insisted” England’s WAGs posed for a group photo outside a restaurant in St Petersburg at the 2018 World Cup in Russia.

She said in the documents Vardy “did not let the others know” she “arranged” for a “paparazzo to be outside to photograph them”.
The wife of Man Utd ace Wayne claimed the pic was sold to a UK newspaper.
Her statement said it could be “inferred” Vardy “received payment directly or indirectly”.
But in her response, Vardy said she “had nothing to do with the photograph” and
“received no payment”.
But she admitted she had separately worked with a UK-based agency, which would “take photographs” of her “or her family or pets on the basis that she would receive a percentage of the revenue from their syndication”.
