Clive Standish, 68, was accused of attacking Anna Standish, who was in the process of divorcing him, by trying to barge down a door she was behind.
Anna, who threatened to get him out of their luxurious 83-acre mansion in Basingstoke, had previously claimed her husband tried to punch her during the dispute.

A former banker assaulted his wife in their £11million stately home after he accused her of being a gold digger, a court heard.
Clive Standish, 68, is alleged to have attacked his wife Anna in a divorce row amid suspicions that she was having an ‘inappropriate relationship’.
Mrs Standish told magistrates that her husband had a ‘wild and menacing look in his eyes’ when he confronted her in Moundsmere Manor in Hampshire – a mansion with a mile-long drive, a tennis court and a swimming pool.
