Rebekah Vardy took a night off from watching her rival Coleen Rooney on I’m A Celeb as she attended the opening night of Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park, London with her family on Wednesday.
The WAG, 42, arrived with her two sons Taylor and Finley, seven, Sofia, 10, and four-year-old daughter Olivia, and footballer husband Jamie.
Rebekah has been sharing her thoughts on the campmates for The Sun, initially taking aim at her Wagatha Christie nemesis Coleen, who she was locked in a notorious defamation trial with in 2022.
But taking an evening off to spend with her children, Rebekah looked happier than ever at the star-studded affair.
Rebekah shares another daughter Megan and Taylor from previous relationships.
She is also a step-mum to Ella, 11 – Jamie’s daughter from a previous relationship with Emma Daggett.

While Coleen has been settling into jungle life, Rebekah has been sinking her claws into the campmates within her new column.
Rebekah claimed she hoped Coleen is forced to ‘eat penis or humble pie’ in the jungle before more recently slamming BBC Radio 1 presenter Dean McCullough, for ‘cosying up’ to Coleen on the show in another blistering attack.
However, Rebekah’s remarks apparently won’t work in her favour in the long run and she is ‘selling herself one final time because she won’t be given airtime in future’.
This is according to PR guru Nick Ede, who admitted he would have encouraged the former I’m A Celeb stay to ‘stay quiet and maintain some dignity’.
He told MailOnline: ‘Rebekah Vardy is doing herself no favours by offering barbed commentary on this years line up and especially of Coleen.
‘We would have thought that she has lessons to learn but she does have quite a hefty bill to pay so she’s having to sell herself one final time because it really does feel like this is the last time she’ll be given airtime and so shes taking advantage while she can.
‘She is still being used for numerous memes and as long as the show is continuing she’ll be the ʙuтт of many of the jokes and especially those from Ant and Dec.
‘I think that she could have won the public over with being silent and just showing some dignity but I think this is going to really have a negative effect on her already precarious career.

This is according to PR guru Nick Ede, who admitted he would have encouraged the former I’m A Celeb stay to ‘stay quiet and maintain some dignity’
‘I would have advised her to stay quiet and not make spiteful comments that will always make her look petty and snide and not be popular with the general public.
‘It not only makes her a villain again but also will scupper big money deals and future earnings.’
However in stark contrast, Nick admitted he thought Coleen was coming across ‘really well’ on screen thanks to her warm personality and can do atтιтude.
He said: ‘She has hit the ground running as a favourite to win because for the first time we are getting to see the real Coleen and finding out what she’s really like.
‘She and Dean have hit it off immediately and he’s not afraid to call her wagatha and shes showing the viewers that she is more than that and much more than a WAG.
‘She’s going to become the meme queen of the jungle too with her banter and can do atтιтude all making her into a winner.
‘For her this is exactly what she wanted to show the viewers who she really is and for them to fall in love with her personality.
‘This is a really great stepping stone for her giving her a voice and I can see iTV bosses wanting to sign her up for Loose Women or her own chat show!
‘I’m actually really glad he got voted to do the trial because actually I find him really, really irritating. Give it a rest, mate. I don’t think it’ll take long for the public to get bored of him at all’ (pictured with Coleen on the show)
‘As this years biggest booking all eyes will be on her to deliver and if day one is an example of the air time shell get then they have really invested perfectly this season.
‘Her down to earth personality really showed when her boat sank and she didn’t throw a fit or act like a diva but looked at how she could get to shore and help dean get to camp. This team player relationship will put her in excellent stead to win the show.’
This comes after Rebekah posted her second piece for The Sun about the second episode, she called Dean ‘irritating’ and claimed his constant references to her Wagatha Christie trial were an attempt to ensure he got airtime.
She fumed: ‘Dean, Dean and his cosying up to Coleen. It’s so very obvious and, believe me, it is going to get tiresome.
‘He absolutely loves to talk about Wagatha and when he does he knows he’s going to get airtime from it.
‘I’m actually really glad he got voted to do the trial because actually I find him really, really irritating. Give it a rest, mate. I don’t think it’ll take long for the public to get bored of him at all.’
