Tom Daley's husband Dustin Lance Black issues statement as he's cleared of assault
Tom Daley's husband, Dustin Lance Black, has issued a statement after being cleared of assault charges when his case was dismissed mid-trial at Westminster Magistrates’ Court.The claims made by a reality TV star that she was assaulted by Dustin, who married Olympic swimmer Tom Daley, 27, in 2017, were dismissed as inconsistent and not enough to secure a conviction. CCTV footage shown in Westminster Magistrates' Court today revealed Mr Black grappling with TV host Teddy Edwardes at Freedom Bar in London's Soho, while a former Love Island winner and Tom himself watched in shock. Dustin was alleged to have grabbed Teddy’s wrist “very hard” and spilled her drink over her.
