An English National Opera stagehand who stamped on his girlfriend‘s head and threatened to leak private intimate videos among other forms of physical and psychological abuse, is facing jail.

He also admitted ‘using degrading or threatening language and using violence towards her, and he knew or ought to have known that the behaviour would have a serious effect.’
