Ryan Giggs prosecution over domestic violence allegations abandoned
Former Manchester United winger and Wales manager Ryan Giggs’ retrial later this month on domestic violence charges has been abandoned after lawyers withdrew the prosecution. Giggs, 49, was due to go on trial for a second time on July 31, accused of controlling or coercive behaviour towards his ex-girlfriend Kate Greville, 39, between August 2017 and November 2020. Giggs was also accused of assault by “losing control” and headbutting her and the common assault of Greville’s sister Emma by elbowing her in the jaw, during a row at his home in Worsley, Greater Manchester, on November 1 2020. He denied the offences and underwent a month-long trial, ending last August when the jury failed to reach any verdicts. Prosecutors then sought and were granted an application for a retrial, scheduled to begin on July 31, after telling Judge Hilary Manley that the complainants were willing to give evidence at a second trial. But on Tuesday, prosecutor Peter Wright KC told Manchester Crown Court that the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) were not now proceeding with the case. During Giggs’ time at Old Trafford, Manchester United won 13 Premier League titles, two Champions League trophies, four FA Cups and three League Cups. Giggs stood down as Wales boss following a period of leave since November 2020. He won 64 caps for Wales and is co-owner of Sky Bet League Two side Salford.

Husband screams and swears at wife after learning she is pregnant
The shocking moment a man yelled at his wife after she revealed she was pregnant with their fourth child has gone viral. The shock of finding out he was expecting another baby sent one man into a spiral after his wife, Anissa, filmed his reaction and shared it on TikTok. Also known on TikTok as The Cofer Family, Anissa shares clips of family life raising four children with her husband, James. The clip of her husband’s reaction to her note telling him that she was pregnant with their fourth child has been viewed more than 7 million times and isn’t the typical reaction you may expect. Text overlaying the video read: “When you’re done having babies but get a positive test and your husband’s reaction isn’t what you expected.” Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter In the video, Anissa told James to open an envelope on the bed which contained a note which confirmed her pregnancy news. He shouted: “Stop playing with me. Anissa, it’s not…Anissa, no!” James continued to shout, “NO” and sat with his head in his hands as he comprehended the news that they were about to have their fourth child. @anissacofer Needless to say, she’s the blessing we never knew we needed. ??#babynumber4 #pregnancyannouncement #blessed “Babe, please tell me you’re joking,” he continued before Anissa brought the positive test over to him and he screamed, “F**k". In the comments, people were surprisingly mostly understanding of the husband’s reaction, with many saying they have felt the same way. One person wrote: “THIS IS REAL LIFE… we have a 23, 13,9,8 and a MF 1 year old.. that last test we were like F*****K.. we were so close but she is a whole blessing!” Another commented: “Not him acting surprised like he isn’t 50 per cent the reason why we are here in the first place. Love it!” However, someone else told Anissa, "Divorce him now". “The most reasonable and true reaction I’ve seen after already having multiple and not really wanting more,” another TikToker wrote. Someone else argued: “Those ‘oh hell no’ babies end up being beloved in a special way. I know because I had one at 44.” Have your say in our news democracy.

FIFA criticised for lack of pro LGBTQ+ stance in new ‘Unite’ armbands
The World Cup begins on Thursday and captains will wear FIFA’s new ‘Unite’ armbands, but the governing body of world football has been criticised for a lack of pro LGBTQ+ stance. It was announced last month that FIFA had partnered with the United Nations to create eight stakeholder-sanctioned armbands that can be swapped out or worn during the month-long tournament co-hosted by Australia and New Zealand. The ‘Unite’ armbands are a solution to the ‘OneLove’ armband debate that sparked the threat of sanctions being issued to countries, including England and Wales, during the men’s World Cup in Qatar last winter. While FIFA’s ‘Unite’ armbands will highlight a number of social issues, amongst them inclusion, gender equality, indigenous people and peace, there is no specific armband that advocates for the LGBTQ+ community and none contain the rainbow colours commonly associated as the colours of pride. Stonewall ambassador Amazin LeThi has been left disappointed, especially given many players involved at the tournament will be part of the LGBTQ+ community. “Unite for inclusion is not enough,” LeThi told the PA news agency in reference to one of the eight ‘Unite’ armbands. “And who are you not wanting to offend by not having the rainbow flag colours for the unite for inclusion armband? It is like, ‘we are uniting for inclusion but only for certain communities,’. “So many fans as well are part of the LGBTQ+ community. FIFA has had World Cups in countries where there are anti-LGBTQ+ laws so what a statement it would have made this time if the athletes came out wearing an armband in support of the LGBTQ+ community.” FIFA consulted with national associations ahead of this World Cup in an effort to avoid the row that occurred in Qatar over the ‘OneLove’ armband, with the captains of the nations involved threatened with a yellow card if the bands were worn. The armbands were viewed by FIFA as a potent symbol of tolerance in a country where same-sex relationships were criminalised, but LeThi, an advocate of Stonewall’s Rainbow Laces campaign, questioned why the same should apply this time. Regardless of what FIFA has come up with, I think teams should come out wearing the OneLove armband because it would make such a statement. Stonewall ambassador Amazin LeThi She added: “It didn’t surprise me at all because there are obviously politics behind it as well. It was completely disappointing that so many big sports organisations caved in to not supporting LGBTQ+ rights. “Just the same with the trans exclusion we have just seen with World Athletics recently. “There is no reason why they can’t this time. Australia has inclusion and equality for the community so they can’t make excuses around sensitivity there.” England head coach Sarina Wiegman revealed last week the team were happy with the ‘Unite’ armband solution, but captain Millie Bright has not yet announced if she will wear one armband or alternate for the different cause being highlighted in each round of matches. Injured Euro 2022-winning captain Leah Williamson had signalled in February her intention to this summer wear the contentious ‘OneLove’ armband – which become symbolic for the LGBTQ+ community last winter – but sanctions would be issued for wearing it or any other unsanctioned band, the PA news agency understands. England men’s captain Harry Kane wore a rainbow-coloured armband during their Euro 2020 last-16 tie with Germany two years ago and LeThi would like Bright to wear the OneLove armband in their World Cup opener against Haiti on Saturday. “There is no reason why England shouldn’t still wear it,” LeThi said. “The UK prides itself on equality and inclusion. We have just had London Pride where nearly three million people attended, you have LGBTQ+ athletes as part of this team, there isn’t any reason why they can’t wear it. “When you think about it, it is just an armband with some bright colours on it. Where is the problem? “Regardless of what FIFA has come up with, I think teams should come out wearing the OneLove armband because it would make such a statement.” FIFA has been approached for comment.
