Wagatha Christie’s big reveal? Wayne Rooney’s a genius
The IndependentTowards the end of part three of Disney+’s Coleen Rooney: The Real Wagatha Story, Coleen lets it be known that Wayne was so energised by his proximity to the multimillion-pound court case that captivated the nation that he “had all these plans about going to law school”. Several years before Wagatha came to court, before the epic “reveal” post, we now know that Wayne did tell her that the most straightforward solution to her Instagram-based problems was: “Just delete it.” It is reassuring to know that, at least somewhere, in all that beautiful chaos that unfolded over several years like a giant lily on timelapse in an Attenborough documentary, it was pointed out, at least once, that, you know, you could just delete it. She’s stubborn.” The precise sums are not known, but if Wayne Rooney LLP had chosen to bill for that advice, its retail value could have run well into six figures. So it was interesting to spot, among the executive producers of this one, that not exactly well-known factual entertainment TV industry veteran, Paul Stretford – Wayne Rooney’s very long-time agent.
