A court has ruled decisively against The Deb actress Charlotte MacInnes in her defamation case against Rebel Wilson, dismissing her lawsuit over social media posts, and attention has now shifted to lyrics in MacInnes's latest song that appear to reflect on the fallout from the dispute. Wilson said she was "standing up for what I believe is right", while MacInnes is reportedly set to appeal the ruling, keeping the row between the two actresses alive despite the court's verdict.

The case centred on claims MacInnes made regarding Wilson's conduct on social media, with the court siding entirely with Wilson and throwing out the action. MacInnes's newly released song is being read by commentators as a telling, thinly veiled reference to the bitter legal battle and its outcome, adding a fresh public dimension to a dispute that has drawn attention because of both women's profiles in the entertainment industry.
