The Hollywood star is being sued for $300,000 (£250,000) by retired optometrist Terry Sanderson over a collision at the Deer Valley resort in Utah in 2016.

Craig Ramon, who had been skiing with Mr Sanderson, told the Utah courtroom he witnessed the incident which left his friend unresponsive and lying face-down in the snow.

“We were skiing down the run and then I heard this yell, this scream, and then I looked over,” he said. “I see this skier just slam into the back of Terry.

“She slammed him very hard. She hits him directly in the back, his skis go out and he falls face down, so he’s kind of spread-eagled and Gwyneth is on top of him...and bounces off and slides about five or 10 feet.”
