A Scottish podcaster has been found guilty of domestic abuse against a former partner.

James English, 43, repeatedly attacked the woman - a model and influencer - at a flat in Glasgow and elsewhere between July 2022 and November 2023.

English, from Larkhall, starred in Scottish reality TV show Glow, before becoming the host of the Anything Goes podcast which has more than 800,000 subscribers on YouTube.

He was convicted of engaging in a course of behaviour which was abusive to a partner or ex-partner after a 12-day trial at Glasgow Sheriff Court.

The single charge included a total of 19 allegations, with six proven. One allegation had been withdrawn mid-trial by the Crown.

The court heard the pair had met through social media in July 2022.

The woman - who gave evidence remotely - told the trial English was "nice at first" and the relationship moved "fast".

The first act of violence came when they were lying together in the early hours of the morning and English kicked the woman off the bed after she refused to give him a cuddle.

The woman said she felt "shocked" and wanted to leave. English joined her five minutes later in the living room.

She said: "He came over to the sofa where I was sat and he grabbed me by the shoulders for me to stand and pushed me against the wall."

The woman added English used enough force to lift her from the floor.

Prosecutor Danielle Docherty asked how English seemed at the time. The woman said: "Angry."

The court heard the relationship continued and the woman discovered she was pregnant.

In one incident English grabbed his victim by the neck and pinned her against a door.

He later pressed his thumbs into her eyebrows which caused redness.

Other violent incidents included pulling the woman by the hair which caused her to lose her balance, and on another occasion, slapped her on the face causing redness.

The trial was also told English sent threatening and abusive messages to her.

Calum Weir, defending, told the court in his closing remarks that the Crown's case "fell short" of guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.

In relation to the violence and injuries, Weir said: "There was no evidence in terms of pictures for someone who described herself as online."

Weir stated that the victim was also "vague" with dates and there was "no specific time" given for each allegation.

He added: "There is no evidence or pictures - it simply did not happen."

It was revealed English has previous convictions for mainly road traffic matters.

Convicting English, Sheriff David Hall told the court: "I considered the victim to be credible and reliable.

"I am satisfied that it is appropriate to convict of parts of the charge.

"There was a lot of evidence that this relationship was on-off between them."

Sentence was deferred pending background reports until next month and English's bail was continued meantime.
