MANCHESTER. — Ryan Giggs’ ex-girlfriend said living with him during the first Covid lockdown was “utter hell”, a court has heard.

Greville said she did not choose to live elsewhere or with her parents because she “wanted to stay with Ryan… because we had just started the relationship again”. The court heard that during the lockdown the couple took part in online family quizzes, wine tasting on Zoom and had Michelin-starred chefs bring in food. — BBC Sport.
