Welsh Rugby Star Henson Faces Drunk and Disorderly Charge

Welsh rugby international Gavin Henson is to be charged with disorderly conduct over allegations of drunken behavior on a train, British Transport Police said today.

The boyfriend of singer Charlotte Church and the Ospreys club player is to be summoned with three friends over an incident on a London-to-Cardiff train on December 2.

Henson and his three will appear at Cardiff magistrates court next month.

Henson, 25, who lives in the Vale of Glamorgan, issued a public apology last Monday. He is also facing a separate investigation from the Ospreys.

The events allegedly happened hours after Henson had scored all of the Ospreys' points in their 19-8 victory at Harlequins.
