The boyfriend of former EastEnders actress Gillian Taylforth has been found guilty of assaulting a receptionist at a Barbados hotel.
Magistrate Ian Weekes ruled Geoff Knights, 52, was found guilty of slapping a 25-year-old receptionist at the Tamarind Cove Hotel on the Caribbean island's west coast.
The fiance of the star, who now appears in The Bill, may have to serve community service on his return to England, magistrates said.
He will also face a fine.
