when he allegedly butted her in the face as she tried to end the relationship — leaving her with a bruised lip.During repeated attempts to leave him, Giggs would fire off texts aimed to “erode any sense of self-worth”, it was said
Opening the case, Peter Wright QC, prosecuting, told jurors at crown court in Manchester: “He is, you may know, a former professional footballer of considerable repute. In his heyday he played locally for Manchester United and internationally for Wales.“On the pitch his skills were abundant and a thing of beauty. Off the pitch in the privacy of his own personal life, at home behind closed doors there was, we say, the facts in this case reveal a more uglier and sinister side of his character.
“As she was vacating the defendant’s home address, he came back and began arguing with her and trying to stop her leaving.” The prosecutor said she took his phone as a “bargaining chip” to try to persuade him not to prevent her from going. Mr Wright said: “At that stage, we say, the defendant entirely lost self-control and he deliberately headbutted Kate, thereby causing swelling to her lips and bruising.Mr Wright said it was Giggs’s claim that the headbutt incident was an accidental “clash of heads”.
