Jules Sebastian grilled over Guy’s confrontation with home intruder

Guy Sebastian’s wife has been grilled about her mental health and a historic headbutting incident while giving evidence at his ex-manager’s trial.

Guy Sebastian’s wife has repeatedly declared the singer is “not a violent man” while giving evidence in court.

Celebrity stylist and television presenter Jules Sebastian returned to the witness box on Friday to continue her testimony in the trial of Mr Sebastian’s former manager Titus Day, who stands accused of fraudulently embezzling about $900,000 in money which was allegedly owed to the pop star.

Mr Day’s barrister Dominic Toomey SC grilled Ms Sebastian about events which took place in the aftermath of an alleged home invasion at her family’s Sydney home in 2012.

The court was told Ms Sebastian made a triple-0 call to police after she discovered a man allegedly trying to break into the home.

“I know he [Mr Sebastian] was holding the man that came and tried to break into my house with my nine-week old baby and when he came I know there was contact of some description but it wasn’t an intentional headbutt that I could see,” Ms Sebastian said.

“There was contact of some degree.”

Mr Toomey told the court the man who allegedly attempted to break into the Sebastian’s home was charged with trespassing, but the case was thrown out of court after Ms Sebastian gave evidence.

“The triple-0 call that was played in court established that what you had said in your statement [to police] was not correct didn’t it?,” Mr Toomey asked Ms Sebastian.

She responded: “I believe I told my statement to the police as I remember it”.

Ms Sebastian told the court she did not “think” she had discussed the contents of her statement to police, about the 2012 incident, with Mr Sebastian.

When asked if she discussed concerns about her statement with Mr Day’s wife Courtney, Ms Sebastian said “possibly, I don’t remember”.

Mr Toomey said “did you tell Mrs Day that you were seeing a counsellor because you had concerns about what was in your statement to police?”.

“I’ve seen counsellors for various things in my life,” Ms Sebastian responded.

“The whole process was very trying and very scary and I didn’t enjoy it … it was a very hard time.”

Ms Sebastian told the court she was “shocked” to find out Mr Day had applied to have an apprehended violence order taken out against Mr Sebastian.

The court was told the AVO application, which was later withdrawn, suggested Mr Sebastian had a violent history.

Ms Sebastian said she “possibly” assumed the reference to a violent history was linked back to the 2012 home invasion incident.

“I wasn’t thinking about that … he’s not a violent man,” she said.

“I was very shocked by that [AVO] because he’s not a violent man.”

The trial continues.
