Guy Sebastian’s wife has been criticized for his mental health and a historic head-on incident while giving evidence at his ex-manager’s trial.
Guy Sebastian’s wife has repeatedly stated that the singer “is not a violent man” while testifying in court.
Celebrity stylist and TV presenter Jules Sebastian returned to the courtroom on Friday to continue his testimony in the trial of Mr. Sebastian’s ex-manager, Titus Day, accused of fraudulently embezzling about $ 900,000 in money that supposedly due to the pop star.
Mr Day’s lawyer, Dominic Toomey SC, spoke to Mrs Sebastian about the events that took place following an alleged home invasion of her family’s home in Sydney in 2012.
The court said Ms Sebastian made a triple 0 call to police after she discovered a man allegedly trying to break into the house.
“I know him [Mr Sebastian] I was holding the man who came and tried to come into my house with my nine week old baby and when he came I know there was a contact of some description but it was not a deliberate blow that I could see, “said Mrs. Sebastian.
“There was a certain degree of contact.”
Toomey told the court that the man who allegedly tried to enter Sebastian’s house was charged with admission, but that the case was kicked out of court after Ms Sebastian testified.
“The triple 0 call that was played in court stated that what you had said in your statement [to police] It wasn’t right, was it? “Toomey asked Mrs. Sebastian.
She replied, “I think I told my statement to the police as I remember it.”
Ms Sebastian told the court she did not “think” she had discussed the content of her statement to police about the 2012 incident with Mr Sebastian.
When asked if she talked about her concerns about her statement with Mr. Day’s wife, Courtney, Mrs. Sebastian said “possibly, I don’t remember.”
Mr Toomey said “Did you tell Mrs Day that you were seeing a councilor because she was worried about what was on her statement to the police?”
“I’ve seen counselors for various things in my life,” Mrs. Sebastian replied.
“The whole process was very difficult and very scary and I didn’t enjoy it … it was a very hard time.”
Ms Sebastian told the court she was “surprised” to learn that Mr Day had requested that an arrest warrant be issued for violence against Mr Sebastian.
The court was told that the AVO application, which was later withdrawn, suggested that Mr Sebastian had a violent history.
Ms Sebastian said she “possibly” assumed the reference to a violent story was related to the 2012 home invasion incident.
“I wasn’t thinking about that … he’s not a violent man,” he said.
“It simply came to my notice then [AVO] because he is not a violent man. “
The trial continues.
