The police were called and Gray, 29, was charged with assaulting her. Gray, unemployed, pleaded guilty when he appeared from custody.
The incident followed a disagreement between them at their home at 1 Owen Place, Wick, on Monday night.Sheriff Andrew Berry called for reports aimed at establishing whether there was any underlying problems in their five-year relationship, and, noting Gray's extensive record, made his bail subject to a condition that he must not contact Ms Streight, who is pregnant.
The accused will reappear for sentence on July 25. He is presently living at his mother's address in Queen's Square, Wick.
