Former Spandau Ballet singer Ross Davidson has been charged with sexually assaulting and attempting to rape a woman on a Thai island.
The 36-year-old singer allegedly groped and attempted to have sex with the woman without consent in December 2019, when they were in the popular holiday destination of Phuket.
Davidson is also accused of voyeurism by allegedly recording the woman “doing a private act” on the same date in Thailand.
He appeared at Wood Green crown court on Tuesday via videolink from HMP Pentonville to enter pleas to the charges.
Davidson, of Station Road in Finchley Central, pleaded not guilty to attempted rape and sexual assault, and no plea was entered for the charge of voyeurism.
The singer, whose stage name is Ross Wild, joined 80s favourites Spandau Ballet in 2018 as the frontman, having previous performed on the West End alongside the band’s guitarist Martin Kemp.
After performances in London and a short European tour, Davidson quit the band in May 2019.
Judge John Dodd remanded Davidson in custody and set a provisional date for a two-week trial to start on June 2 next year.
A further hearing in Davidson’s case is set to take place on October 24.
