A WOMAN told a court today that her life was “ruined” after former Big Brother star Jason Cowan allegedly forced himself on her as she slept after a festive work night out.Cowan, a contestant on the show in 2004, is accused of performing a sex act on the partygoer during an overnight stay at a luxury holiday estate in Lochgoilhead, Argyll, in December 2011. He denies the charge and has lodged a special defence of consent.
A jury at the High Court in Glasgow heard claims that Cowan pounced on the 36-year-old. The woman sobbed as she recalled shouting, swearing and kicking at Cowan, 39, when he was on top of her.
It is alleged he assaulted the woman when she was asleep and incapable of giving, or withholding, consent.
