Peter Cooper, 48, of Mylor Yacht Harbour fought the charges, but was convicted.
He was found guilty of assaulting Imogen Gardiner on June 15 and 16 at a flat in Kestrel Avenue, Herne Hill, south London.
At Croydon Magistrates' Court Cooper was sentenced to twenty-four weeks imprisonment, suspended for twenty-four months.
The court ruled the reason for a custodial sentence was due to the seriousness of the offences, which were described as “sustained” and in a domestic context.
Cooper was also made subject to a five-year restraining order, prohibiting him from contacting Imogen Gardiner and entering Kestrel Avenue.
He was also ordered to pay £500 costs and a £128 victim surcharge.
