Melissa George's long-term partner Jean-David Blanc has faced a French court over claims he assaulted the Australian actress at their Paris apartment, according to reports.
George, 40, was pictured looking sombre as she left the Paris courthouse on Thursday.
Blanc, the 48-year-old father of her two sons, left separately.
The French businessman has denied allegations he physically abused the Grey's Anatomy actress, leaving her face swollen and bruised, last month.
French newspaper Le Parisien reports the domestic assault case has been remanded until February next year.
