Real Housewives of Cheshire star Dawn Ward ‘slapped man’ and called Jewish woman a ‘little disease’, court hears
Dawn Ward allegedly told a Jewish woman that she was a ‘little disease’ and is said to have ‘slapped’ a man during an incident at a train station, a court heard. The Real Housewives of Cheshire star appeared at the Inner London Crown Court, sitting at the Royal Courts of Justice, this week charged with racially aggravated intentional harassment and possession of cocaine, which she denies. It is alleged that Ward, 48, unleashed a tirade on Jewish brothers, Jake and Sam Jacobs, and Jewish woman Samantha Eisner, at London Euston in October 2019. The two men were reportedly asking customer services about a train delay when Ward allegedly approached them and said: ‘Why do you lot always complain?’ Eisner – who is Jake’s girlfriend – told the court: ‘I didn’t notice her until she started speaking to us when we were at the information desk.‘She said, “Why are you lot always complaining?” and I replied: “What do you mean?” ‘She said to the boys, “You Jewish c***s” and then she continued to say to me that I was a little disease. I don’t think we had much of a response because we were shocked, we were upset.‘It was awful, I was upset and my grandpa was in Auschwitz and survived Auschwitz.
