It came after her solicitor claimed a conviction would end Chardonnay's career as a carer. Dunfermline Sheriff Court heard the two families had gathered at Lochore Miners' Welfare Social Club in Fife on May 18 last year. At first, everyone seemed to be getting on "fine" but the mood turned sour following a game of "Would Mummy Rather". Most read in Darts One question was asked about whether Chantelle would rather "put a bottle on for the baby or open a bottle of wine'. The court heard someone from dad-to-be Ben's family then yelled out she would open the wine , which caused Chantelle to become "upset". Chardonnay Wilson said her mum Sarah and Ben's mum Pamela were 'arguing back and forward'. She added: 'My mum told her they could speak any other day but not to spoil the occasion." But the court heard more rowing broke out during a game of "Baby Bingo" after apparent sexual comments were heard. A punch up then unfolded outside the venue after an alleged abusive remark was aimed at the Wilsons. Sheriff Susan Duff said: "Mrs Ritchie's evidence was that she was left with a bald section on her head as a chunk of hair had been pulled out." Sarah Wilson pleaded guilty to assault, while Chardonnay was convicted following a trial. She still denies removing Yvonne Ritchie's feeding tube and punching and kicking the gran-to-be. Sarah's solicitor Stephen Morrison said: 'This was a baby shower celebration that turned sour for one reason or another. "She absolutely regrets the incident and she hadn't been drinking that day. "She continues to have a relationship with her daughter's partner but not with the rest of his family. There's no reason to believe there will be a repetition of this behaviour as she's not likely to put herself into another family situation like this.' Jocky Wilson was world champion in 1982 and 1989 and one of the biggest stars of the games . He retired in 1995 and died at the age of 62 in 2012. 6 Chantelle had got upset over a game called Would Mummy Rather Credit: Facebook 6 Sarah Wilson was ordered to pay the victim a fine 6 Chardonnay was also convicted of assault Credit: Facebook

Wilson, of Kirkcaldy, admitted to seizing Pamela Ritchie by the hair, leaving her with a bald patch. Her daughter Chardonnay, 20, was also previously found guilty of assaulting the 61-year-old grandmother of the dad's family by attempting to seize her essential nasogastric feeding tube. The trial heard there was growing hostility between the relatives of the happy couple throughout what should have been a fun family get-together.

"She continues to have a relationship with her daughter's partner but not with the rest of his family." Sheriff Susan Duff ordered £500 compensation to be paid to the victim, and added she was unimpressed by Wilson's reaction in the dock. She told Mr Morrison that Wilson would have to return to court to make sure the money had been paid, adding: 'Your client's face said an awful lot about what she thought of the sentence.'

Mystery question that led to punch up at baby shower with family of darts star
Relatives of darts star Jocky Wilson were involved in a family punch up at a Fife baby shower which saw one grandmother claim she had her feeding tube dislodged Relatives of an all-star darts player became embroiled in a baby shower brawl after a 16-word, initially innocent-seeming question was floated during the celebration. A party thrown at Lochore Miners' Welfare Social Club in Fife, Scotland, held on May 18 last year to celebrate the impending arrival of Chantelle Wilson's baby daughter had gotten off to a good start, with family members happily chattering and playing games. But the event turned sour when some of the games were used to throw insults. A punch-up at the club landed the expectant mum's mother Sarah Wilson and her sister Chardonnay - both relatives of Scots darts legend Jocky Wilson - in court after the expectant dad's mum was punched and his grandmother claimed her essential feeding tube was dislodged. The hearing at Dunfermline Sheriff Court in Lochore, Fife, heard all was "fine" at first as the two families sat at different tables, but moods soured during a gave of "Would Mummy Rather". One baby shower attendee brazenly asked: "Would mummy rather put a bottle on for the baby or open a bottle of wine?". The question, Chardonnay Wilson told the court, left her sister "upset" and "everything started to escalate from there" with arguments being traded back and forth before her mum Sarah said: "They could speak any other day but not to spoil the occasion." The arguments came to a head when allegations of abusive sexual comments were made during a game of "Baby Bingo", with rows only increasing in intensity until they broke out into a fully-fledged assault outside the shower venue. Chardonnay was found guilty of assaulting Yvonne Ritchie, the grandma of father-to-be Ben, who alleged her essential feeding tube was dislodged during the violence. The court also heard that Sarah Wilson of Kirkcaldy allegedly assaulted Pamela Ritchie by grabbing her hair and repeatedly punching her on the body. She reacted angrily when asked about her relation to Jocky Wilson by the Daily Record, saying: "I'm Jocky Wilson's niece and Chardonnay is his great niece but that has nothing to do with any of this." Chardonnay, who was found guilty of assault, was handed an absolute discharge by a sheriff after her solicitor Gino Gambale argued the conviction would end her career as a carer. She denies having ever assaulted Ms Ritchie, saying she "didn't touch her feeding tube and I didn't pull her feeding tube out. I didn't do anything. It took three of them to try and attack me". Sarah admitted to assaulting Pamela Ritchie by seizing her by the hair and repeatedly punching her on the body. Chantelle Wilson broke her silence on the events at her baby shower last year in a post earlier this month. Writing on Facebook, she said she had "kept my mouth closed for nearly a year", and that "finally this nightmare is over with". She added that she is still with her partner, saying: "Me and my family KNOW THE TRUTH!!! I can say a lot more but I don't need to explain myself to anyone just shows though me and Ben are still together even after all of this."

Fife baby shower ends in violence as families feud
A baby shower attended by feuding families in Fife ended in violence. There was hostility between the relatives of the couple having the baby as light-hearted games such as 'Baby Bingo' were ruined by offensive comments fired back and forward across the hall, Dunfermline Sheriff Court heard. The bad feeling between the families escalated to violence outside the hall in Lochore. The mum and sister of the mother-to-be landed ended up in the dock on assault charges. Sarah Wilson, 45, of Kirkcaldy, admitted punching the other mum after grabbing her hair. Chardonnay Wilson, 20, also from Kirkcaldy, was found guilty of assaulting another woman. Chardonnay Wilson told the court the baby shower for her sister Chantelle, had started at 1pm. She said the two families were sitting at different tables and 'at first it was fine'. However, bad feeling began to escalate during a game called 'Would Mummy Rather'. She explained there was a question, 'would mummy rather put a bottle on for the baby or open a bottle of wine'. She said someone from the father-to-be's family shouted out the new mum would open a bottle of wine. 'Chantelle got upset and everything started to escalate from there,' she said. She described how her mum Sarah and the other mother were 'arguing back and forward'. 'My mum told her they could speak any other day but not to spoil the occasion,' she said. The court was told there was more arguing during a game of 'Baby Bingo' and allegations about sexual comments being heard. There were then claims about an abusive comment, 'F***ing fools', aimed at the Wilsons, being written on a paper plate. Wilson said she had also written a good wishes message in the baby book and someone had ripped it out. Gino Gambale, solicitor for Chardonnay Wilson, asked for his client to be given an absolute discharge, as a conviction would end her three-year career as a carer. Sheriff Susan Duff said it would 'not be proportionate' to impose a sentence which would end a young person's career and agreed to the defence request, meaning the offence will not go on Wilson's record. Sarah Wilson will be sentenced on June 4 after the sheriff called for reports.
