Coleen Rooney: From Wagatha to Jungle Queen?

Coleen Rooney's I’m A Celeb journey begins with a familiar chuckle! Dive into the hilarious moments from the jungle and learn why everyone’s still obsessed with the Wagatha saga!

Coleen Rooney, famously dubbed 'Wagatha Christie', is diving headfirst into the wild world of 'I'm A Celebrity...' and the jungle is buzzing with anticipation. After the historical feud with Rebekah Vardy that birthed her infamous nickname back in 2019, Rooney is back in the spotlight, this time trading courtroom drama for jungle trials. Moments after stepping into camp, one of her fellow contestants couldn't resist cracking a Wagatha joke, leaving her in stitches. It's as if the jungle itself has become a stage based on her legendary legal escapades!

As if the Wagatha references weren’t enough, the hilarious banter continued when Radio 1 DJ Dean McCullough made a splash on social media with his exuberant shout, 'Let’s go Wagatha Christie!' This sparked a meme frenzy as fans embraced the throwback moniker. What’s better than mixing reality TV with a splash of courtroom intrigue? Coleen's ability to adapt to jungle life while holding onto her pop culture roots is both entertaining and charming, showing just how resilient and relatable the Wagatha saga remains.

Not to be forgotten, ITV's decision to bring in Coleen is a strategic move amidst a rather ‘bland’ lineup this season. Critics are questioning if the 'Coleen vs Rebekah' storyline still holds water, but with such an iconic figure now set against the backdrop of the jungle, it’s hard not to tune in. After all, who wouldn’t want to see how she deals with fierce challenges and potential new friendships while stepping out of her comfort zone?

In a world where controversy sells, the fascination with the Wagatha tale shows little sign of fading away. Coleen’s escapades in ‘I’m A Celeb’ have reminded everyone of her tenacity and wit. Did you know that Wagatha Christie has entered the realm of cultural references, generating its own memes, shirts, and even discussions on social media etiquette? And after all the drama, Coleen's tenacity couldn’t be clearer – from a courtroom to the jungle, she's proving why she's still a household name in the UK! So, grab your popcorn because this season is all about the laughs, the dares, and of course, the Wagatha legacy!
