He’s fought with gangsters, criminals and even his own family and mostly always come out on top.

But tonight he found himself doubled over in agony after trying to bully his sister in law.

As the couple clashed, Cain became annoyed and demanded they leave.

“That’s enough. Take it outside,” ordered Cain but while Caleb agreed, Ruby refused.

“Jog on. Either that or rejoin Oasis. Do not come near me or you will regret it.”

As Cain tried to intimidate her into leaving, telling her she wasn’t welcome here, Ruby called his bluff.

“Who do you think you are, John Waye?” she said.

“I’m having a drink. We’re not going anywhere, we’re staying here. Now move. You like playing the big man, don’t you?”

Cain tried to patronise her, telling her to be a good girl and run along but Ruby refused, warning him: “You’ve got three seconds to move.”
