Rebekah Vardy broke down in tears today as she spoke out for the first time since her £3million Wagatha Christie libel defeat to once again deny leaking stories about Coleen Rooney. 

'I'll say it until I'm blue in the face, I did not do it,' the 40-year-old told TalkTV presenter Kate McCann in a teaser clip published this afternoon. 

The 40-year-old, whose reputation has been left in tatters by the case, added: 'I feel let down by a lot of people, a lot of things. But importantly I feel let down by the legal system.' 

At one point Mrs Vardy tells McCann 'I'm going to try' and puts her head in her hands. The presenter hosted last week's Tory leadership debate before it had to be caused when she fainted. 

The exclusive interview is likely to be the first of a series of efforts to restore her reputation that may include a documentary, a biography and two retail campaigns. 

Mrs Vardy, wife of Leicester City footballer Jamie, was told by a High Court judge that her evidence was 'evasive and implausible; and was accused of deliberately deleting WhatsApp messages central to the case.

Sources close to Vardy hope a bidding war will break out among production companies, five of which are said to be interested, to create a documentary on the infamous case.

Bidders are expected to offer between £50,000 and £250,000 for her involvement, The Times reports.
