Former Manchester United footballer Ryan Giggs has told a jury he has never been faithful in any of his romantic relationships but he has never assaulted a woman

Mr Giggs began giving evidence in his defence for the first time today at Manchester Crown Court, where he is on trial accused of assaulting his ex-partner Kate Greville, 38, and her younger sister Emma Greville, 26, on November 1 2020.His barrister Chris Daw QC, calling his client to the witness box, asked Mr Giggs if he agreed he was"well known" the world over for being a footballer.

Mr Daw then asked:"Have you ever set out to control or coerce a woman in any way or in the ways alleged by Ms Greville?"Mr Daw asked:"Did you make Kate Greville a slave to your every need and every demand as she described?" and Mr Giggs replied:"I did not." Jurors were told that he provided officers with a handwritten prepared statement which began with the words"at this stage I feel very emotional about the incident".

He added the couple had been together for four years and had had their"ups and downs", but that the relationship was mainly"wonderful".
