The transgender sister of a NRL star has faced court accused of bashing her boyfriend to death in Sydney on the weekend.
Jade Walker, who is the sister of Manly Sea Eagles player Dylan Walker, allegedly killed her boyfriend Gilbert Caetano at his Brighton Le Sands home in the early hours of Sunday morning.
The 51-year-old father allegedly died from injuries to his head and face, according to court papers.
The Manly Warringah Sea Eagles released a statement over the incident today saying they were focused on supporting their player and his family.
“The Club’s focus during this challenging period, which has come at the same time as Dylan is undergoing recovery from a serious eye socket injury sustained in the Club’s win over Melbourne Storm on Saturday night, is on fully supporting Dylan and his family," the statement reads.
“Given the serious nature of the charges before the Court and the need to let due legal process unfold, neither Dylan or the Club will be making any further public comment.”
Ms Walker appeared in court with swelling to her face and bruising under one of her eyes.
She’s been charged with manslaughter and aggravated enter dwelling with intent and has been remanded to appear in court via video-link next week.
