The former Wales international and manager is accused of using controlling and coercive behavior.

He denies hitting Kate Greville's sister Emma Greville.

He gave a statement to the police the morning after the alleged assaults on Kate and Emma Greville.

Mr Wright asked if you were trying to create a narrative that didn't adequately describe what had happened. "No," Mr. Giggs replied.

He wanted to create a story in which he was the one who had been attacked. The man denied that.

Mr Wright pointed to a part of the statement where Mr Giggs said that his head clashed with hers.

Mr Wright asked if you headbutted her. Mr Giggs said no.

Did you lose your self control?

The man denied headbutting Emma Greville.

Mr Wright wanted to know if it was an accident. He did not know.

He said it was because he was talking about something.

Did you assault her? "No," Mr. Giggs replied.

Mr Wright wanted to know why he could be heard saying "all loser" during the emergency call. He didn't know why he would refer to the two women as loser.

The man was told by Mr Wright that he was going to be arrested. "No," Mr. Giggs replied.

Mr Wright accused Mr Giggs of getting his story straight as he waited outside his house for the police to arrive. He denied that the ex- footballer wanted to give the impression that he was happy they were here.

He pointed out that Emma Greville told police that he was screaming.

The prosecution asked if he was screaming and shouting, but no one else was present.

According to the court, Kate Greville's sister Emma will obviously be on her side after she told police that she attacked her.

He told the police at his house that Kate Greville had taken his phone, so he was not returning it.

He denied that he headbutted Kate and that he was aggressive to Ms Greville.

He admitted that he was scared about the accusations.

"It just didn't look good, I'm not too sure, but I'm not too sure," he said.

When asked what he meant by "we'll be everywhere", he said the newspapers and the media.

Both Ryan and Kate would block each other on the internet.

It was common for them to exchange intimate photographs of each other, but he had never threatened to share any of Kate Greville with anyone else.

When Kate was looking to break up with him, he would send messages to her and her friends.

He told the court that he was trying to reignite the relationship.

Mr Daw asked what Kate's reaction was.

The man said that she was happy that he persisted and fought for her.

He said his "unannounced visits" to Kate Greville at times when they had broken up was to try and see her.

After Kate told Ryan that he wouldn't be going on a trip to Scotland with her, Chris asked him about the messages he sent to her.

He said that he only remembers using that language once.

I was excited to go to the trip because I was upset. I was on a high and low at the same time.

He admitted that he had a private and public persona, but he didn't use violence.
