Coleen Rooney has appeared to hit back at Rebekah Vardy after she posted a cryptic message on social media that read: "Maybe I should start doing fake coffee run pics."
Rebekah's Instagram post appeared to take aim at Coleen and seemed to be accusing her fellow WAG of setting up pap shots during coffee shop runs – a claim that Coleen appears to believe was aimed at her.
And taking to Twitter to address the post, Coleen wrote to her 1. 2 million followers on Tuesday morning: "AS IF!!!" alongside a coffee, running and crying with laughter emojis.
Mum-of-four Coleen is regularly pictured picking up a coffee at her local Caffé Nero, usually wearing workout gear or casual attire.
Dancing On Ice star Becky's apparent swipe came in response to a friend in the comments section of her Instagram post, as she wrote: "Maybe I should start doing fake coffee run pics."
Becky's initial post saw her hit back at trolls who criticised her for setting up pictures with a paparazzi photographer at ZSL London Zoo.
Becky shared the comments that had been written underneath an online article of herself enjoying a family day out at the central London location.
She captioned the post: “Ok so I don’t often do this but I’m so bored of this narrative…. I got invited by @zsllondonzoo to come and spend the day with my kids in return for some pictures which of course I didn’t mind doing!
“Businesses like this thrive off PR especially after the couple of years we have had with COVID.
“My kids and I had the best day and it’s somewhere I recommend going! I don’t lie about set up pictures (unlike some) everyone does it…. and just for anyone wondering I didn’t make any financial gain off any of the pictures taken.
“So to those vile individuals who hide behind keyboards (you wouldn’t dare say this to my face) and spout hate on the Mail online comments section (aka the A***holes Anonymous forum), you can shove your negativity where the sun doesn’t shine.”
Some of the comments underneath the article included: “All she can do is try and push wholesome PR. Fancy calling a photographer when your kids just hoped for a day out with their parents.”
Another Instagram user had written: “She called the paps late last night: meet me at London Zoo 10am SHARP lol.”
Coleen, 35, who is married to footballer Wayne Rooney, is often spotted visiting her local coffee shop and carrying a blue cup.
Becky and Coleen are currently locked in a High court libel case after Coleen infamously accused Becky’s Instagram account of "leaking false stories" about her to the press in a social media post in October 2019.
Jamie Vardy's wife has vehemently denied the claims and has taken her fellow WAG to court in an attempt to sue her for libel.

Most recently Becky was successful in her request to have parts of Coleen’s defence thrown out of court as their libel case continues.
High Court judge Mrs Justice Steyn has now dismissed a claim by Coleen that Rebekah showed "publicity seeking behaviour" as she sat behind her in someone else's seat during the 2016 Euro football tournament.
