Lee Ryan, 39, had been under arrest for abusing a Black flight attendant on a flight from Glasgow to London
Blue star Lee Ryan has been successful in a bid to withdraw his guilty plea for drunkenly assaulting a police officer. The singer-songwriter had been under arrest for abusing a Black flight attendant after drinking a bottle of port before a flight on July 31 last year.
He was found guilty at Ealing Magistrates’ Court in January of racially aggravated common assault by beating and behaving in an abusive way towards the cabin crew member, while pleading guilty to assaulting a police officer by biting him. Describing the moment he pleaded guilty at a second hearing in January, when a trial was due to start, he said: “I couldn’t believe the words coming out of my mouth. There was no conviction. It wasn’t true. I was being made to do it.”
