Hughie Maughan and Ryan Ruckledge attack ‘not homophobic’

The couple were attacked at the weekend following The Gossies 2017 sponsored by Unislim

Hughie Maughan and Ryan Ruckledge’s attack was reportedly not homophobic.

The Big Brother stars were out partying after attending the Gossies 2017 sponsored by Unislim and were attacked in the early hours of Sunday morning.

“This attack was not homophobic because everyone involved in the fight was gay,” a source said.

The reality stars apparently went to The George, one of Dublin’s gay bars, and were supposedly refused entry

“There was some insulting remarks shouted at Hughie and he was called a ‘pikey tinker,'” the source told The Irish Sun.

“But this was not a homophobic attack. That should be made clear.”

The source continued that there were punches thrown as a fight broke out.

“One of my friends said, ‘Oh wow, it’s Ryan from Big Brother’.

“And Ryan said, ‘Listen don’t start with me’. My friend then told Ryan to cop on to himself as he was only a ‘B-lister’. There were punches thrown. Hughie then ran down the street.

“There was no security on the door so it was the customers eating in the restaurant who broke up the fight.

“Ryan left the scene and Hughie was outside the restaurant and the doors were closed and he couldn’t get back in.

“Hughie was really upset that Ryan had been attacked and wanted talk to the man inside who had hit him,” they added.

However, Hughie also spoke to the publication and said that the source is “trying to sell a story”

“I don’t know the names of these places but I do know myself and Ryan wouldn’t start an argument with anyone,” he said.

“What this guy is saying is not accurate. This guy is trying to sell a story. I don’t want to comment anymore.”
