A footballer is accused of raping a woman whilst his friend and former teammate, ex-Love Island contestant Dennon Lewis, slept nearby in the same hotel room.
Ashley Charles, 23, allegedly forced himself on the woman as she slept after a night out at luxury clubs in London's West End, Snaresbrook Crown Court heard, as per the Evening Standard. Charles denies rape and insists the claim that he had sex with the woman is untrue.
Charles and Mr Lewis, who appeared on hit ITV reality show Love Island in the fifth series, were both former Watford youth players and had been out at clubs including Mahiki, Club Maddox and Lords London with fellow footballer Michael Philips in March last year.
