Playboy model Louise Glover guilty of toilet attack


A former Playboy Model of the Year, Louise Glover, has been convicted of assaulting a woman in a row over her husband. Glover had banged Maxine Hardcastle’s head against a toilet rim up to 10 times before attempting to push her head down the lavatory.

Hove Crown Court jury’s judgment led to dramatic events in the court. Glover’s incoherently screamed at Judge Charles Kemp before fainting on the dock. The brawl between Glover and Hardcastle, the daughter of 80s' musician Paul Hardcastle, had occurred during a night-out in Brighton, East Sussex.

Glover accused her of ogling at her husband before attacking her. "One minute she was really angry and saying she knew what Essex girls were like and, ''I can see what you are doing''. She then told us not to look or talk to him," the Telegraph quoted Hardcastle as saying during evidence.

She added: "I knew that my nose was broken because there was blood everywhere. But she just picked me up by my hair and pulled my body weight by my hair and did exactly the same thing again. She punched me on the nose and the same thing happened - I fell straight on the floor."

Glover who had become hysterical tried forcing Hardcastle’s head down the toilet bowl. Hardcastle said: "I couldn't breathe through my nose because I had blood coming from it. I thought that if she put my face down the toilet I wouldn't be able to breathe. I did my best to keep my face away from the water."

Glover has been released on bail.
