In an interview with the Daily Telegraph podcast, Miller claimed, “I took two frames, then I ran to get in front of them, so I had my back to them, and the next thing I knew, he had shoved me from behind”. Kristi Miller works for News Corp Australia and the publication reported that when she took a photo of Mel Gibson and his 24-year-old girlfriend Mel went all insane on her, spitting on her, calling her a dog.
Ross finally stepped in and tried to calm her beau down while apologizing to Miller on his behalf. “I’m sorry, he’s a bit sick at the moment”, she said. There was no physical altercation whatsoever. He swore and called me a c***.
Police have confirmed they are investigating reports that Oscar-winning actor pushed Miller.
Express.co.uk has contacted Gibson’s representatives for comment.

Gibson is in Australia to direct a movie at Fox Studios.
Surry Hills Local Area Command Police Superintendent Tony Crandell has also assured that his department will look into the case.
Right now Mel Gibson isn’t exactly thought of as a ladies man, but word has it that the original Mad Max actor is head over heels in love with his new 25-years-yound girlfriend, Rosalind Ross.
