Helen went into "panic mode" and fell to the floor crying on the balcony, begging to get home to her children.Then Sargeant's demeanour suddenly changed and he "snapped out" of his rage, she said.
He was remanded into custody to appear at Merseyside Domestic Violence Adult remand court on Monday, August 18.
He later appeared at Liverpool Crown Court on October 23 where he pleaded guilty to assaulting a person thereby occasioning them actual bodily harm.
Sargeant was jailed to 20 months in prison and a 10-year restraining order was issued by the court.
He was also ordered to pay £187 in court costs.
Helen has been diagnosed with PTSD and is prescribed medication since the attack.
She says she now suffers bad dreams and cannot sleep at night because of harrowing flash backs.
