RYAN Giggs’ ex-girlfriend screamed “oh my god, it’s so bad” after he allegedly headbutted her in a 999 call played to jurors today.
The ex-Man Utd star, 48, is accused of attacking Kate Greville, 38, after she confronted him about his serial cheating.
He also allegedly assaulted her younger sister Emma by elbowing her in the jaw at his £1.7million mansion in November 2020.
Jurors at Manchester Crown Court were today played a 999 call Emma made on the night of the alleged attack.
Kate can be heard screaming in the background and saying “oh my god, it’s so bad”.
When asked by the operator why her sister is screaming, Emma replies: “She was headbutted in the lip”.

In a second call, Emma says Giggs is “doing a runner” as the operator asks for his name.
The call-handler replies: “As in the Ryan Giggs?”
Emma then tells them: “He said he’s going to headbutt me quite soon… He’s coming back”.
Giggs can be heard in the background of the call asking if she called the police.

He adds: “Kate, Kate, all I wanted was my phone, now we will be everywhere.”
PR exec Kate can still be heard crying in the background of the call as the operator asks if she needs an ambulance.
Emma says: “I don’t know, she’s got a burst lip, I can’t tell you. He’s headbutted her in the face.”
The court also heard from a police officer who arrived at the mansion and saw Kate sitting on the kitchen floor with a “swollen top and bottom lip with significant bruises”.
In bodycam footage of Giggs’ arrest, the footballer claims a row broke out after Kate refused to give him his phone back.
Speaking with blood on his mouth, he says: “We got in a little bit of a tangle, rumbling on the floor there.
“I didn’t know if she had my phone or not, I then tried to get her phone off her and we struggled on the floor and she’s kicked me in the head.”
Giggs continues: “She asked for my phone and there’s been a struggle over there right… I got injured first and then it calmed down.”
‘SLAVE’ CLAIMS
The former Wales boss also tells police he loves his cocker spaniel “just as much as Kate” as he’s quizzed at the scene by officers.
Giggs is accused of using controlling and coercive behaviour against Kate over a three-year period.
In her previous evidence, Kate told how she became a “slave to his every need and every demand”.
She added: “He made me feel like I had to do what he said, otherwise there were consequences.”
Kate said she was a “vulnerable” position when their relationship started and claimed Giggs “played on it”.
She also told jurors the footballer “isolated me from certain people” and “interfered with my ability to interact with my family”.
