He continued: "Sending constant unwanted messages and making constant unwanted calls to her and her friends when she tried to break-off your relationship; after she had tried to break-off the relationship, regularly turning up unannounced and uninvited at her home, workplace and gym."
Ryan Giggs denies all charges, and spoke only at the hearing to enter not guilty pleas and confirm his name, The Daily Mail reports.
The defence, led by Lisa Roberts QC, said: "These are serous allegations each of which is challenged."
When Giggs was originally charged with the offences this April, he wrote in a statement: "I have full respect for the due process of law and understand the seriousness of the allegations. I will plead not guilty in court and look forward to clearing my name."
Following his arrest, he was removed as manager for Wales during the Euros 2020 competition and replaced with care taker manager Robert Page.
Giggs has been bailed and will appear in court next for his pre-trial hearing in October. In the meantime, he is forbidden from contacting Kate or Emma Greville.Football
