Rebekah Vardy revealed she struggled uprooting her family to Italy as husband Jamie transferred to US Cremonese. 

The WAG has opened up about the family's stressful move to Lake Garda as she packed everything up from their Leicester home, including the grand piano, to move to Italy. 

However, things didn't go as smoothly as they had hoped as within months of uplifting their lives in the UK their lavish Italian apartment was raided by burglars, leaving Rebekah 'on edge 24/7'.

'When something like this happens it makes you question everything,' she said during their new three-part ITV series The Vardys, revealed The Mirror.

She later moaned: 'They've taken my f***ing watch.'

The family did manage to stick with Italy until the end of the season, but Rebekah said it was a struggle to find her kids, Olivia, six, Finley, nine, Sofia 12, Taylor 16, British home comfort foods like baked beans, gravy and squash. 

'I have been tasked by my little monsters to go and find some English home comforts. I think the Italian teacher thought I was mad. The kids have asked me to find, they want baked beans. It's really hard to find.'

Elsewhere, while struggling to obtain visas and to find a home to live, Rebekah insisted the whole family had to move together.  

Explaining the decision to move, she said: 'Some people would say it's really drastic uprooting and moving all the kids when they're so settled, and it's only a two hour flight away, but the reality is we're a family unit. 

'You either keep the family together or you both live very different lives. Splitting up the family just was not an option for us'. 

The family flew over in a private jet, but eldest child Taylor opted to stay at home along with Rebekah's dad Carlos who is very close to the kids. 

Daughter Sofia was also worried about missing her friends, so parents Jamie and Rebekah decided to give her a phone for her 12th birthday.

'If we had been back in England, not in a million years would Sofia have ever had a phone', said Rebekah. 'I would say don't give them a phone till they're at least 30! 

'The main reason we gave her a phone was so she didn't feel as isolated out here, so she still felt connected to all of her friends, granddad, and Meg's back in the UK.'

Meanwhile after moving to Italy, Olivia asked to stay home from her school as kids in her age group don't speak English, making it hard for her to communicate with other little ones to make friends. 

The footballer addressed that it was a struggle moving his whole family to Italy but explained that he needs the 'normality' and his children to help him stay 'grounded'. 

He told ITV: 'They're the ones that keep you really grounded. It is massive for me, having the family around. You need that normality.'

Despite the Vardy's moving to Italy following Jamie's transfer to US Cremonese, he has this week put in a request to leave the team when his contract expires this summer. 

The Vardys airs at 9pm on Tuesday June 2nd on ITV1 & ITVX. All three episodes will be immediately available to stream as a boxset online
