Gwyneth Paltrow left court smiling after defending against claims of a 2016 ski collision and hasty departure.

The Oscar-winning actress was seen in court on Tuesday, dressed in a high-necked cream jumper and brown trousers, as proceedings began in her case against Terry Sanderson, a retired optometrist who is suing her over a 2016 incident at the Deer Valley Resort in Utah. Paltrow smiled widely for photographers as she left the building wrapped up in a long green coat and aviator-style sunglasses, ready to face the snow. Craig Ramon, who had been skiing with Mr Sanderson and was present during the crash, gave evidence, saying he heard a 'loud' scream and saw Paltrow 'slam' into Mr Sanderson, leaving him 'spread-eagled' on the mountain. The actress is alleged to have then 'bolted' away without saying a word.

In his opening statement, the lawyer representing Mr Sanderson declared that Paltrow's behaviour had been 'reckless'.

Her cheerful demeanour outside the courthouse stood in stark contrast to the solemnness inside, where jurors heard from Craig Ramon about the 2016 incident at the Deer Valley Resort in Utah, in which Paltrow is alleged to have 'slammed' into Terry Sanderson and then 'bolted' away without saying a word.

Mr Ramon described how he saw the actress collide with Mr Sanderson, leaving him unresponsive and spread-eagled on the mountain, and then heard a ski instructor, Eric Christiansen, arrive and start 'yelling' at the retired optometrist.

Paltrow is being sued by Mr Sanderson and is counter-suing him for a dollar.

In his opening statement, Lawrence Buhler, representing Mr Sanderson, told jurors that the actress' behaviour on the mountain had been 'reckless', as she had been blindly skiing down the slope while looking up and to the side.
