Former Rangers star Paul Gascoigne has opened up about the night he beat his ex-wife Sheryl "black and blue", admitting that his marriage was a "mistake."
The incident took place at a hotel in Perthshire 1996. As reported by the Mirror, Gascoigne head butted his wife and pushed her over, which saw her leave with her hand bandaged up.
Sheryl filed for divorce after one year of being married to each other. This resulted in the former England and Tottenham Hotspur midfielder paying her £700,000 plus £10,000 per month in maintenance payments.
Their interactions did not end with their short marriage . She was by his side when he was sectioned under the Mental Health Act in 2008 and also returned in 2013, after he reached out to her.
