1. > Former Scotland rugby captain Stuart Hogg has pleaded guilty to a charge of domestic abuse against his estranged wife, Gillian Hogg, spanning from 2019 to 2024. The admission occurred at Selkirk Sheriff Court, where details emerged of Hogg’s behavior, including excessive messaging, tracking her movements, and aggressive language, which led to incidents of distress, such as a panic attack. The court heard accounts of Hogg’s criticisms and verbal aggression, particularly during his bouts of heavy drinking. Mrs. Hogg, who sought support from a domestic abuse service in 2023, eventually separated from him. Hogg will be sentenced on 5 December.
