Ryan Giggs Accused of Assaulting his Girlfriend
Legendary Manchester United winger and current Wales manager Ryan Giggs has been arrested. The former Manchester United player is suspected of assaulting his girlfriend Kate Greville. The 46-year-old was questioned on suspicion of actual bodily harm and assault. Manchester Police spokesman said: “Police were called at 10.05 pm on Sunday to reports of a disturbance. A woman in her 30s sustained minor injuries but did not require any treatment.”
“A 46-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of section 47 assault and section 39 common assault.” Police said the arrested man was released on bail pending enquiries.
Ryan Giggs emerged from Pendleton police station on Monday afternoon. It was also gathered that he had been living in the house which he bought for his mum Lynne on the same street as his £3.5million pad, which is up for sale. Giggs had been at Hotel Football, in Manchester, which he co-owns, earlier in the day to watch Man United’s 1-0 defeat against Arsenal.
He has been dating Kate on and off since 2017. They met when she started doing the PR for Hotel Football in 2013 after moving from Dubai.
Giggs went public with the relationship when he was pictured with her holidaying in Italy in August 2018. A representative for Ryan Giggs said he denies the allegations and is assisting the police with their ongoing investigation.
The statement said: “Mr Giggs denies all allegations of assault made against him. He is cooperating with the police and will continue to assist them with their ongoing investigations.”
