Rebekah Vardy's career change to documentary host after Wagatha Christie ordeal
Rebekah Vardy is hoping to sidestep career and make it as a documentary host - and she planning on exploring part of her past in a new series.
The 40-year-old mum-of-five - who is married to 36-year-old footballer Jamie Vardy - is picking up the pieces after she lost a highly publicised defamation case against fellow WAG, Coleen Rooney.
TV fans will be able to see Rebekah investigating the world of Jehovah’s Witnesses in a new documentary series.
The star will travel across the UK to meet and interview members of Britain’s Jehovah’s Witness community - meeting those who follow and used to follow the religion.

“She has decided to make this documentary as it’s completely different and a topic she cares strongly about.
“It could be the start of a new career move for her and she's excited.”
Rebekah has opened up about her last as a member of the Jehovah’s Witness community, having been raised as a member of the religion.
Appearing on Loose Women back in 2017, the star joined in a discussion about how she and the other panelists decorated their homes at Christmas.

She said at the time: “I grew up as Jehovah's Witness and we didn't celebrate Christmas. It was horrible.”
She then told how she was 'alienated' by her peers after 'getting hauled out of festive assemblies.'
"Kids used to poke fun at us," she added.
And when she was asked how her family would spend December 25 when she was growing up, Becky responded: "we used to go knocking on peoples' doors. There was nothing. Christmas didn't exist, neither did birthdays.”
Last year the star again opened up about her strict upbringing, telling Hello! magazine that she has made up for all her missed Christmases now that she is mum.

She said: "My family were Jehovah's Witnesses. I wasn't allowed to celebrate Christmas. I feel like I missed out on so many precious times. That's why I go crazy with decorations now.
"I want to do everything I couldn't do when I was younger.”
Rebekah has three children with her husband, Jamie - and shares two children, Megan and Taylor, from previous relationships.
