The Week Trending - Coleen Rooney And Rebekah Vardy Feud Rumbles On

In a week dominated by budget and Brexit news, the row between Coleen Rooney and Rebekah Vardy also made quite an impact. Rooney has accused Vardy of leaking her private Instagram stories to the tabloids. She came to this conclusion after blocking everyone except Vardy from viewing her stories, and posting a series of false stories which she claims were subsequently leaked. Vardy, who denies responsibility for the leaks, has compared the escalating feud with Rooney to "arguing with a pigeon". Lise Hand and Lorcan Nyhan discussed this and more of the week's news stories in The Week Trending. Listen to the interview in full by pressing the play button on this page.
