But there was little sign of the impending strain as the 49 year-old posed with his ex-wife Stacey, 42, and current partner Zara Charles, 34, at a restaurant in Manchester on Christmas Day.

Stacey and Ryan were married for 10 years between 2007-2017 and co-parent their two kids, Liberty and Zachary.

A source said: “Whatever happens next year, Stacey and Zara are standing by Ryan and supporting him.

“Spending Christmas Day with your ex wife and girlfriend wouldn’t be everyone’s cup of tea, but it works for Ryan and Stacey.”

Ryan found love with lingerie model Zara last year and she has supported him throughout his court appearances.

Stacey went on to date The Wanted’s Max George before he ended things to be with Maisie Smith.

The festive lunch comes after the ex-Wales boss told of his “disappointment” at facing a retrial for allegedly headbutting ex Kate, 38.

Jurors failed to reach a verdict following the three-week assault trial on August 31.

Giggs was accused of attacking PR exec Kate and coercive and controlling behaviour against her between December 2017 and November 2020.

He also denied an allegation of common assault by beating against Kate’s sister Emma, 26.

Giggs said: “After more than three weeks in court I am obviously disappointed that a retrial has been ordered.

“My not guilty plea remains in relation to all charges. I am confident that justice will eventually be done and my name will be cleared of all the allegations.

“I would like to thank my legal team, my mum, my children, my girlfriend Zara, as well as my closest friends, for their support throughout this period.

“I understand the level of interest and the scrutiny around this case but I would like to ask that my and my family’s privacy is respected in the weeks and months ahead.”

A trial date has been set for July 31, 2023 – 143 weeks and one day after he was arrested.
