Bargain Hunt star Charles Hanson begged his wife for forgiveness and promised to 'never lay a finger on her again' after she told him she wanted to separate, a court heard.
Charles Hanson, a TV personality known for shows like "Bargain Hunt," is on trial for domestic abuse, including assault and coercive behavior. After his wife, Rebecca, sought separation, Hanson allegedly sent her messages promising to change, attend anger management, and gave her an ultimatum. Rebecca, fearing for her safety, decided to separate. The court heard testimony from her mother, who described escalating abuse, including an incident where Hanson locked Rebecca in a hotel room. The defense argued that Rebecca's allegations were exaggerated, citing past false claims, and questioned the mother's support for Hanson after his arrest.
