Ryan Giggs' ex-girlfriend Kate Greville was spotted with a bruised lip as she walked with her dog in her first public appearance since the Manchester United football star allegedly assaulted her.
Sources close to the PR executive, 36, say she is going through the 'worst two weeks of her life,' after police arrested Giggs at their home in Worsley, Salford, on November 1.
The 46-year-old Wales manager denies allegations of assault against Ms Greville and another woman, who is believed to be her relative, and has been released on police bail.
Ms Greville was spotted out for a walk with her Labrador, Mac, on Sunday as friends revealed how she is struggling following the 'disturbance'.
A source told The Sun: 'Kate has been through a living hell. These have been the worst two weeks of her life, a nightmare.
'Kate doesn't want to talk about what happened but it's clearly shaken her up. They've had bust-ups before but it really is over.
'Ryan doesn't seem to be dealing with it well either — he looks like he's got the weight of the world on his shoulders.'
Giggs was supposed to take charge of Wales during a friendly against Ireland on Sunday, but stepped down amid the ongoing police investigation.
Once a star of the Premier League, Giggs suffered a fall from grace in 2011 when he spent £150,000 on an injunction in a bid to hush up an affair with Big Brother contestant Imogen Thomas.
The scandal unravelled further when it later emerged he'd also had an eight-year affair with his younger brother Rhodi's wife Natasha – and paid her £500 to abort his child weeks before her wedding.
In 2016 he eventually split with his wife of ten years Stacey, with whom he has two children, kicking off an acrimonious £40million divorce battle.
It came amid reports that Giggs had struck up a 'flirty' friendship with a PR girl – later revealed to be Miss Greville.
A row allegedly between broke out between Giggs and Ms Greville last Sunday when she confronted him over 'flirty' messages to two women on his iPad, which was linked to his phone, before the pair engaged in a blazing row.
The Welshman was reportedly accused of getting too intimate with former air hostess Zara Charles, 33, after 'flirty' messages were found between the pair.
