The teenager, who is currently studying sports science at Nottingham Trent University, was later treated for her broken noses at A&E in Macclesfield General Hospital. 

The attack was almost exactly a full year ago. She has not talked to her mother in over a year.

Stockport Magistrates’ Court: Mother of three Carroll admits common assault. After that, she tried to come to terms with her daughter.    

She was however issued a restraining injunction prohibiting her from speaking with her daughter for at least one year.

Peter Casson (defense lawyer) stated to JPs that his client would like for the relationship with their daughter to be resumed.

“She would love to host Christmas at her house. From last Christmas to her birthday, and now for Christmas she still has gifts. Unfortunately, this will not happen. That young girl’s mother is not gone. Her daughter is still her priority.

It happened on December 12, last year, after Carroll invited friends over to witness Joshua’s victory against Kubrat Pulev of Bulgaria. This was to defend his WBA, IBF and WBO belts.

Chantelle was working in a hotel all day and became angry because she didn’t want the house for herself.

Mr Casson said that she had taken her daughter to work, and it quickly became a problem. 

“The daughter became quite aggressive and said that she was tired of working long hours so wanted to have the whole house for herself. It was an admonition for the events that followed.

“This suspect called the police, while her daughter tried to persuade her. The mother wanted her daughter to leave the home, but she refused and the red mist fell on her.

She regrets the decision and feels ashamed that she is in such a position.

She said that she did not intend to get into a fight with her on this particular day. She was reckless and lost her plot. It seemed like her daughter was taking control of her home.

“She didn’t want to make her daughter go through a trial, so she pleaded guilty. However her daughter doesn’t want any contact with her.” She is ready to move on and put the past behind her. She said that her daughter was welcome to return whenever she wishes. This was a single incident. 

Carroll also received a 120 hour unpaid work order and 20 rehab activity requirements days. She will also have to pay £180 in costs and surcharges.

JP Dominic Stone said to her, ‘You were prodded and we don’t believe that this was deliberate. Also, you’ve lost your character and shown repentance. But this wasn’t your best hour. You broke your daughter’s nose, regardless of previous events.
