Bargain Hunt star Charles Hanson has been charged with seven offences including assault and coercive behaviour after police were called to reports of a domestic incident.

“On December 14, Charles Hanson was charged with seven alleged offences.”

The offences include two counts of assault occasioning actual bodily harm, two counts of assault by beating and engaging in controlling and coercive behaviour.
