Read our privacy policy Dizzee Rascal has been found guilty of assaulting his ex-fiancee during a “chaotic” row about child contact. The court earlier heard that the musician “barged” into Ms Jones’s residence in June last year, “put his forehead against hers” and then “pushed her to the ground”. Announcing the guilty verdict, District Judge Polly Gledhill said: “I am satisfied so that I am sure that on 8 June that Mr Mills, on returning home with the child late, lost his temper in an argument over child contact and finances.” Mills was “abusive and aggressive” and “assaulted her as outlined by the Crown”, she added.
