Yesterday the story emerged that when Harding had broken up with Dutchman Theo De Vries, he attacked her in a drunken stupor. But, when interviewed by police, investigators witness the injuries which De Vries had sustained at Harding’s hands, and she will most likely be charged – even though De Vries didn’t want to press charges. Now, Harding has come forward to try and get her story across.
“While he had me by the hair,” Sarah told The Sun, “he was pulling me across the floor. He was dragging me around. He was smacking my head on the floor. He bit my ear. When I kicked him to try and get him off me, I got his nose and he was bleeding.
“He smeared the blood all over my face so it was all over my clothes. Look at me, look what he has done to me. That doesn't come from just holding me back. I've got bruises on my bum. Bruises on my legs.
“The damage to my arm is probably the worst. This is where they bandaged me in hospital as they thought I might have fractured it. During the row he said, 'You're nothing but a B-class singer. You are just a fucking alcoholic. You have got no friends.
“He was really, really horrible. Any insecurities I had, he used them against me. He was goading me. The abuse carried on and on and on till I'd had enough. He got so horrible I threw a coffee cup at him. It missed.
“It was probably coming up to midnight. I'm not going to lie, I had a gin and tonic at the airport, but I was sober at this point. I wasn't drunk at all. He didn't seem drunk but he just completely changed character.”
It’s going to take a long time for the truth of the situation to come out (if it ever does) – but for now, it looks like they may both be facing assault charges. What do you think of the ordeal? Let us know in the comments section below.
