Candice Warner, wife of Test opener David Warner, has slammed rumours of a feud between herself and skipper Michael Clarke's wife Kyly, while going in to bat for the WAGS.

News Corp has reported Australia's tour had been dogged by off-field dramas which included bad-blood between two unnamed WAGS (wives and girlfriends), with Candice and Kyly eventually named.

"This story that we may not get along is total rubbish," she told the Triple M Grill Team.

Warner said her main focus when joining on tour was her husband, but conceded in these environments there was bound to be conflict though she didn't have any problems with anyone.

"In any group there's going to be people who ... it doesn't matter if it's a work environment or sporting environment, who aren't going to get along," she said.

"I get along with everyone ... I'm here to support David."

Last week, former Test wicketkeeper Ian Healy said the WAGS were a contributing factor for Australia's poor Ashes performance as they were a "distraction".

When questioned whether WAGS should be allowed to tour with the team, Candice replied: "Most definitely."

"The most important thing is the boys. It's about getting them ready, getting them on the field and making sure they're 100 per cent ready to go," she said.

"I think a lot of them would be very unhappy if their kids and their partners weren't here ... there's a lot of things we do behind the scenes that people don't know to help get the boys on the field."
