Rebekah Vardy wraps up against the autumn chill as she attends rehearsals for Dancing On Ice

Rebekah Vardy headed out for another grueling Dancing On Ice rehearsal on Sunday, as January’s show premiere creeps closer.

The WAG, 38, who is married to footballer Jamie Vardy, 33, was joined on the outing by her professional skating partner Andy Buchanan.

Rebekah wrapped up against the autumn chill in a cream padded jacket, a pink sports top and skinny black leggings. 

The former I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! contestant added cream moon boots to the look.

She wore her chestnut locks loosely around her shoulders and toted a large sports holdall. 

Rebekah looked cheery as she grinned while heading back to her car, bidding goodbye to her pro partner.

She shielded her eyes from the bright November sunshine with a pair of large dark shades. 

She will be competing on Dancing On Ice alongside the likes of Myleene Klass, Denise Van Outen and Jason Donovan.

Her appearance at rehearsals comes after it was alleged the second lockdown currently in place across the UK would interfere with practice sessions.

It was reported last week that ice rinks are being closed to adhere to new coronavirus guidelines and that the pro skaters and celebrities are said to be concerned that they’ll be unable to train.

A source told The Sun: ‘Lockdown is affecting many industries, but Dancing On Ice looks set to be hit in a big way.

‘The main concern from some of the professionals is that because council rinks are being closed down, they’re going to be left with nowhere to train.

‘Not all of them are near one of the few available UK rinks so it remains to be seen how they’ll get on-ice training.’ 

Yet a Dancing On Ice spokesperson hit back at the claims and told MailOnline: ‘We’re in constant contact with our entire cast in training and there have been no concerns raised. 

‘All scheduled training is proceeding safely within guidelines and at easily accessible locations.’ 

They added: ‘ITV takes the safety and welfare of everyone involved with its programmes extremely seriously and follows all government guidelines regarding Covid-19.

‘The government has confirmed that TV production can carry on throughout lockdown, to that end we will be hiring the local ice rinks on a private and exclusive hire basis.’ 

So far, the cast have been undergoing weekly coronavirus tests in order to train with their professional partners on the ice.

Meanwhile, Rebekah’s £1million libel court case against  Coleen Rooney continues to loom.

It is now thought the pair have been given the date November 19 for their ‘meanings hearing’, reports The Sun.

Last year, Coleen released a statement admitting she has been planting false Instagram stories on her private page and blocking all her other friends to prove that Rebekah was the guilty party. 

The socialite claimed stories about her basement flooding, gender selection and so on were only viewed by her former friend and these were subsequently followed by media outlets.

The wife of footballer Jamie Vardy subsequently hit back at the star and insisted the claims were false.

In her original post, Coleen wrote: ‘For a few years now someone who I trusted to follow me on my personal Instagram account has been consistently informing The Sun newspaper of my private posts and stories.

‘There has been so much information given to them about me, my friends and my family – all without my permission or knowledge. After a long time of trying to figure out who it could be, for various reasons, I had a suspicion.

‘To try and prove this, I came up with an idea, I blocked everyone from viewing Instagram except ONE account.’

Reality star Rebekah is seeking substantial damages in the subsequent libel trial, as she claims to have suffered ‘severe and extreme hostility and abuse’ in the fallout after the claims were published on Instagram.

The Mirror reports that judge Mr. Justice Nicklin has stated a preliminary trial will decide the ‘natural and ordinary’ meaning of Coleen’s social media posts.

In the September 17 court order, he stated: ‘It is ordered by consent that there be a trial of the preliminary issue of the natural and ordinary meaning of the words complained of.’
