The jury of seven women and five men had to sit through an oration of toe-curling love poetry and sometimes X-rated texts that former Man Utd star Ryan Giggs and Kate Greville texted each other.
The former England star has been referred to Attorney General Suella Braverman by Judge Hilary Manley over a remark seen as referring to Ryan Giggs domestic violence trial.
In summing up the case, Judge Hilary Manley referred specifically to the former Manchester United star and his ex-girlfriend Kate Greville, outlining the decisions the jury must make.
In his closing speech at Manchester Crown Court, prosecutor Peter Wright QC reiterated there were two very different Ryan Giggs . Jurors were also told to put aside any feelings of sympathy .
The ex-football boss, 80, who helped convince a teenage Giggs to join the football club, arrived at Manchester Crown Court this afternoon as a character witness.
