Having written about the UK trade mark registration filed on behalf of Rebekah Vardy back in April 2023, it is interesting to see that the Disney Documentary on the dispute between Vardy and Coleen Rooney, which launches today, is called “Coleen Rooney: The Real Wagatha Story”.
The Vardy trade mark registration for WAGATHA CHRISTIE claims services relating to the preparation of documentaries in class 41, so it would appear that Disney has sought to avoid directly reproducing the term in order to lessen the risk of objection from Vardy and her team.
