Peter Andre Speaks Out After His Manhood Is Compared To A 'Chipolata' In Court
Peter Andre has defended the size of his manhood after he was shocked to discover it had become a main talking point on day one of the infamous 'Wagatha Christie' libel trial between Rebekah Vardy and Coleen Rooney.
In a trial that can only be described as much-anticipated, Vardy is suing Rooney for libel after the latter claimed that the wife of Leicester City footballer Jamie Vardy had leaked at least three private stories about her personal life – notoriously making the allegation in her now infamous 'it was... Rebekah Vardy's account' Instagram post.
Both Jamie Vardy and Rooney's husband Wayne were in attendance on day one of the trial at the Royal Courts of Justice in London. However, it was poor Peter Andre who perhaps got the biggest shock, as his manhood quickly became a major talking point.

Being cross-examined by Rooney's lawyer, David Sherborne, Vardy was shown what appeared to be an A3 printout of an article featuring an interview with Vardy. The Daily Mail reports that it bore the headline: 'Peter's hung like a small chipolata, shaved, slobbery, lasts five minutes'.
The barrister then read excerpts from the article, including claims that the Mysterious Girl singer had managed 'just five minutes of sex with Rebekah' and that he had 'the smallest trouser equipment I've ever seen', which was like a 'miniature chipolata'.
The article had appeared in the News of the World, and Vardy was asked if she felt it was 'respectful' of Andre's 'right not to share this information' after she'd earlier said that she respected people's privacy.
She replied: "I was forced into a situation by my ex-husband to do this.
"It is something that I deeply regret... It is not nice to read and I understand why this is being used and to me this is mudslinging and I was also threatened with mudslinging by Mrs Rooney's team."
Asked the question again by Sherborne, the 40-year-old said: "The circumstances around it were completely different."
She later admitted said she did not ask Andre for his permission or tell him it was going to happen in advance.
With his private parts suddenly the topic of the day, Andre seemingly had no choice but to take to Instagram.
"Do you know how hard it is to keep biting my lip on situations?" he wrote.
"But the way I look at it, most people saw in the jungle how an acorn turned into an oak so I think I'm ok."
He added: "At least she has now admitted it wasn't true and was forced to say it."
