Rebekah Vardy bashes cruel Russian trolls who branded England World Cup WAGs ‘ugly’ and ‘hags’

ENGLAND star Jamie Vardy's wife has hit back at cruel Russian trolls who branded English WAGs at the World Cup "ugly".

Rebekah Vardy, 36, posted a feisty message on Instagram captioned: "Seeing as I'm being called a 'hag' by the delightful trolls I thought I would adopt this approach."

The image posted to her 341,000 followers read: "People talk about having an inner child. I don't.

"I have an inner old lady who says inappropriate things, calls everyone a c*** & wants to be in bed by 8pm."

The Loose Women panellist was widely praised for her tongue-in-cheek response, with many complimenting her looks and bravery in responding to the cruel taunts.

Rebekah led a ten-strong party of players’ partners at the stadium in Kaliningrad where England lost 1-0 to Belgium on Thursday.

The women were also seen out during the week drinking champagne at a swish restaurant in St Petersburg.

But back-biting Russians targeted the group, branding them "The Hags" and claiming local women were much prettier.

One said: "British women are as ugly as my life. If British women are coming here, our men need guards."

Another commenting on sports news website championat.com added: "Animal trainers are also needed because bears are walking around our streets."

One troll said goalkeeper Jack Butland's fiancee Annabel Peyton was "the only one that resembles a woman".

Another anonymous keyboard warrior added: "The rest of them are plastic silicon dolls."

Targeting Rebekah for "always being next to husband Jamie", one troll said: "She was an unemployed girl with two children from different husbands.

"Of course she would, where else could she find such an idiot?"

But angry England fans blasted the trolls with retired train driver Geoff York, 68, saying: "Russian girls are very pretty but they don’t know how to party like ours."

Building contractor John Simpson, 40, added: “The comments about them being ugly are not only rude, they’re untrue."

The squad of Three Lions wives and girlfriends also includes Raheem Sterling’s fiancee Paige Milian and Dele Alli’s girlfriend Ruby Mae.

But one Russian journalist blasted his own countrywomen — labelling them "overused prostitutes".

Platon Besedin, 32, wrote in a major Moscow newspaper: "We have raised a generation of whores ready to open their legs as soon as they hear some foreign language sounds.”

A petition started by a Cosmopolitan journalist demanding that he apologise has 6,500 signatures.

One said: "Maybe Russian girls fall in love with foreigners as they behave like men and don’t just hold a bottle of beer and retch during the championship."
