Jeremy McConnell is appearing in court today to face charges of assault by beating, relating to an incident at Stephanie Davis’ home on March 9, 2017.
He has denied the assault claims, but pleaded guilty to criminal damage at a pre-trial hearing in May.
Today, Stephanie Davis is giving her testimony at Liverpool Magistrates’ Court.
According to The Mirror, Stephanie cried while giving her testimony, while Jeremy laughed behind the dock and yelled “lies”.
Steph has claimed that during the alleged assault, Jeremy had a “psychotic episode”.
She told the court: “I heard him go over the gate and I thought ‘this is like a horror film’.
“He was booting my glass doors with his foot, and I thought the glass was going to shatter. I thought, ‘this is it, he’s going to kill me’.”
She also told how Jeremy had become convinced she was having a lesbian affair with her pregnant friend, and accused her of using a sex toy with other girls.
The Mirror also reports that there was an outburst in the court room when Stephanie said: “Jeremy is laughing at me in the court. Why are you laughing? You’re a blatant liar?”
“How can he do this to me? It’s the truth.”
He then reportedly replied: “I can’t help but laugh.”
Stephanie then apparently said: “He’s completely destroyed my life. It’s been the worse 18 months of my life”.
The judge then is said to have told them both their behaviour is unacceptable and ordered a break.
