Lee Ryan is trying to reverse his plea for assaulting a police officer after he pleaded guilty to that and using racially abusive language towards a Black flight attendant.
The Blue star, 39, was previously found guilty on January 12 at Ealing Magistrates’ Court of being drunk on an aircraft, assaulting a police officer by biting him as well as the abusive language used towards cabin crew.
Ryan was “slurring his words and staggering around” after drinking a whole bottle of port before the British Airways flight from Glasgow to London City Airport on July 31 last year. The singer was photographed walking into Westminster Magistrates' Court wearing a black suit, white shirt and a pair of dark sunglasses earlier on Tuesday.
