Ryan Giggs’ ex girlfriend ‘screamed in pain’ during a 999 call after he allegedly headbutted her in the face, a jury has heard.
The former Manchester United player is currently on trial at Manchester Crown Court over allegations he assaulted former girlfriend and PR executive Kate Greville, 38, at his home.
He is also accused of assaulting her younger sister Emma, 28, by elbowing her in the jaw during the same incident which took place on November 1, 2020.
The alleged assault happened after the two shared a meal at Giggs’ Stock Exchange Hotel in Manchester city centre.
Kate Greville returned home alone in a taxi after after accusing Giggs of messaging a string of women over a period of a few months.
Giggs, 48, arrived home separately in another taxi and the row continued as they tussled over their mobile phones, the jury at Manchester Crown Court heard.
Kate Greville’s sister was looking after the family dog at the couple’s home when they arrived back and called the police at 10.05pm to which Emma said: ‘Assault. Headbutted her’.
In a recording heard by the jury, Emma can be heard telling police to ‘come quickly’ as Kate Greville could be heard crying in the background.
The operator asks: ‘Does she need an ambulance that lady who is screaming in the background?’
Emma Greville replies: ‘I think, yeah. He has just headbutted her in the face.’
Giggs denies the allegations and also denies an accusation he used controlling and coercive behaviour against Kate Greville between August 2017 and November 2020.
The trial continues.
