Carl Woods, Katie Price’s fiancé, is “relieved” that his threatening behaviour complaint against the model was dismissed just days before he was set to appear in court.
The 33-year-reaction old’s was described by sources close to him after his trial was cancelled due to a lack of evidence.
Following an altercation in August, car dealer and former ‘Love Island’ participant Woods was charged with using threatening, abusive, or insulting words or behaviour toward ex-glamour girl Price, 44.
He appeared in court in March after allegedly “trying to force his way into a property after rowing with Katie and shouting on the street.”
He pled not guilty, was granted unconditional bail, and was set to begin his trial this Thursday, backed by mother-of-five Price, whose children include severely challenged Harvey, 20. (16.06.22)

His case has been dropped, according to The Sun this evening (13.06.22), because there is “no longer a realistic possibility of conviction.”
“Carl is relieved to finally have his name cleared,” a source close to Woods said. He was under a lot of stress as a result of the lawsuit.
“Those close to Carl continued to support him throughout the process and everyone is relieved to hear the news.”
The insider added he is “now more determined than ever to seek justice against those who contributed towards falsely accusing him”.
Prosecutor Leigh Hart told the court in March Woods got in a row with Price at home, adding: “This resulted in his partner leaving his property to go to another property.
“The defendant followed her and attempted to force the door of that property and was heard shouting outside in the street which was overheard by neighbours.”
Defending, Mark Davies shrugged off the incident as “nothing more than a squabble”.
If found guilty, Woods faced a maximum of six months in jail.
A spokesperson for the Crown Prosecution Service today (13.06.22) confirmed: “The CPS has an obligation to keep cases under continuous review.
“As part of our review and in accordance with our legal test we concluded that there was no longer a realistic prospect of conviction and the case was stopped.
“The Crown Prosecution Service takes seriously all situations where a person’s behaviour causes fear and we will seek to prosecute suspects when our legal test is met.”
