Blood was found all over the room where the 45-year-old motorcyclist and his partner of two years Miss Saoud were staying following the attack , Guildford Magistrates ’ Court was told . A judge was told father-of-three Emmett lost his temper after the couple returned to the house where they were staying with a takeaway - and he took exception to the way she was eating . He admitted assault and was jailed for 12 weeks last Friday . Emmett 's former wife Abbie died after falling to her death from a hotel while they were on their honeymoon in Dubai in 2013 . At court last week , Carole Fern , prosecuting , said Emmett had calmly returned to the pub to drink more after beating up Miss Saoud . She was left in the street with a nose bleed . Ms Fern added : ‘ They were eating dinner , she was eating quickly as she was hungry . They had a difference of opinion about her manner of eating . She said he grabbed her around the neck with one hand and hit her in the face . 'He does say she slapped him first and in her statement she does say she slapped him. ’ Ms Fern said the man who they were staying with then heard Emmett tell his partner to ‘ get out ’ . ‘ She ’ s injured now and she ’ s on the street , ’ the prosecutor said . ‘ It ’ s about 8.30 or 9 in the evening . While this is happening the defendant goes back to the pub . Motorcyclist : A judge was told father-of-three Emmett ( pictured at Snetterton Circuit in Norfolk in 2006 ) lost his temper after the couple returned to the house where they were staying with a takeaway . Sentenced : Emmett was jailed for 12 weeks at Guildford Magistrates ’ Court ( above ) after admitting the assault . Pub : The couple had been drinking at The Lord Hotham ( pictured ) in West Molesey , Surrey , before the attack . ‘ There are young people outside the Royal Oak pub and the victim is trying to cover her face with her hands . She says “ please call me an ambulance , he ’ s hurt me ” . ’ However , Miss Saoub later told police and paramedics that she had sustained her injuries after falling over . Ms Fern said she had been left with hand marks around her neck , a very bruised left cheek bone and injuries to her nose . Ex-spouse : Emmett 's former wife Abbie ( pictured ) died after falling to her death from a hotel while they were on their honeymoon in Dubai in 2013 . The Lebanese national had already been attacked by Emmett once before , resulting in him being given a domestic violence protection order , the court heard . Ms Fern said : ‘ She ’ s vulnerable , she has no place else to go . He has the control there . 'It ’ s aggravated by the fact he had a DVPO for the same victim that was breached by taking her away and he served time for that. ’ The court was also told how Miss Saoud had given police a statement from her bed in Kingston Hospital in which she said her boyfriend had drunk ‘ seven or eight pints of Guinness and she drank four or five ’ . The couple had been drinking at The Lord Hotham pub in West Molesey , before the attack took place on January 24 this year . Simon Collingham , defending , told the court that Emmett admitted going ‘ beyond reasonable force ’ , but claimed it was ‘ dangerous ’ to speculate about other issues . He said : ‘ Those who deal with the defendant make no comment about his intoxication whatsoever . Do you think it would have been something they would have mentioned ? ‘ We only have to judge the case on the facts . He had no intention to cause great harm . ' Mr Collingham revealed the pair are now engaged to be married and added there had been correspondence between the two while he was in custody . Chair of the bench Jane Bak decided not to issue a restraining order to Emmett after hearing Miss Saoud did not want one . As well as being jailed , Emmett was told to pay an £80 victim surcharge .
