After the shocking news that Dawn Ward has been charged with two counts of racially aggravated harassment and possession of cocaine, friends of the reality star tell new she’s in “a bad way but maintaining her innocence”.

The alleged incident is said to have taken place at London’s Euston Station last October. The Real Housewives Of Cheshire star, 47, who’s married to former Premiership footballer Ashley Ward, 49, appeared at Highbury Corner Magistrates’ Court to hear the charges against her and will face trial in March 2022.

Dawn has strongly denied all charges, taking to Twitter to say, “I vehemently deny these allegations and look forward to clearing my name in court when the full facts can be made public. Thank you for all the overwhelming support, it really means a lot.”
