The 38-year-old faces a separate charge of engaging in abusive conduct with a third woman in Inverness between 2019 and 2022.

This features a number of accusations including claims he was violent and brandished a knife at her.

It is further said Ross controlled her access to money and contacted her medical professionals without her knowledge or permission.

Prosecutors also state he deleted "evidence" - including photos and audio recordings - from her phone as well as send messages pretending to be her.

Ross, of Inverness, is separately charged with threatening and abusive behaviour as well as attempting to pervert the course of justice.

The case called for a hearing at the High Court in Glasgow today.

Ross - who denies the accusations - had previously been due to stand trial late last year.

A new date has been fixed and the trial is scheduled to begin in May 2026 in Edinburgh.
