Some people said the dress was black and blue while others argued it was white and gold.   The court heard the couple had a "volatile" relationship and Johnston became enraged with his wife at their home during an argument.    He then tackled her to the ground and throttled her using both hands. […]   He threatend to "finish her off", struggled with his wife again, brandished a knife, uttered a further threat that "somebody was going to die" and then attempted to self-harm, the court heard.   He pleaded guilty at the same court last month to assaulting his wife to her injury and endangering her life. […]   They went on to appear on the Ellen DeGeneres Show in the USA, where they were handed $10,000 and a luxury trip to Grenada.
