Coleen Rooney supported by Wayne and lookalike son Kai, 13, at Wagatha premiere
Coleen Rooney stunned alongside her husband Wayne Rooney and son Kai at the premiere of her new Disney+ documentary on her Wagatha Christie case against Rebekah Vardy.
On Wednesday, the three-part series finally dropped on the streaming platform, and as eager viewers tuned in to finally get a behind-the-scenes glimpse into Coleen's perspective on the trial - after she put on a brave face for so long.
The new Disney+ series focuses on the legal case which was ignited in October 2019 when 37-year-old Coleen took to social media to sensationally accuse fellow WAG Rebekah, 41, of selling stories about her personal life to The Sun. She made the accusation revealing she had planted fake stories on her own social media channels, but limited who could see the false information, and then was surprised when the fake news made its way into the tabloids.

Since the judge ruled in favour of Coleen, numerous stage and screen adaptations of the case have been produced.
Coleen and her family pulled out all the stops for the Liverpool premiere at the Everyman as the WAG's son, 13, joined his parents to watch the new documentary-series unfold. Kais is currently playing as a centre forward at Manchester United's youth academy after following in his dad's footsteps.

Other famous sporting stars in attendance were England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford who arrived with his wife Megan Davison. Phil Jones and his wife Kaya Hall were also at the premiere and Manchester United player turned football coach Darren Fletcher also showed his face.
Coleen Rooney : The Real Wagatha is told through Coleen's recollections and included interviews with her family, legal team and key players involved. For the first time ever, curious fans see Coleen break her strong demeanor and break down in tears as she says she 'lost herself' throughout the case after becoming infuriated by Rebekah selling her stories.

Coleen is set to earn more money than her football manager husband Wayne after signing the multi-million pound deal with Disney+. However, it hasn't been all plain sailing for her, with insiders claiming the star ran the risk of being forced to change the working title of the new three-parter after Rebekah trademarked the iconic 'Wagatha Christie' phrase earlier this year.
