Giving evidence, the woman said: “He (Barron Trump) helped save my life. That call was like a sign from God at that moment.”
Former fighter Matvei Rumiantsev, 22, is on trial at Snaresbrook Crown accused of assault and two counts of rape against the alleged victim.
Barron, 19, had called the woman, who jurors have heard is friends with the president’s son, last January 18.
The court was told he then spoke to in London when he saw Rumiantsev allegedly grab her hair and push her to the floor while shouting “you are not worth anything”.
In a transcript released by the (CPS), Barron said: “Oh I’m calling from the US, uh I just got a call from a girl, you know, she’s getting beat up.
“This was happening about eight minutes ago. I just figured out how to, how to call someone. Uh, uh it’s really an emergency.”
At one point, the 999 operator then told off Trump for refusing to answer questions, saying: “Can you stop being rude and actually answer my questions.
“If you want to help the person, you’ll answer my questions clearly and precisely, thank you. So how do you know her?”
Barron then said he met the alleged victim on social media and that she was “getting really badly beat up”.
He added: “So sorry for being rude.”
The court heard that police in London asked if Barron would be willing to provide a witness statement.
The US president’s son wrote back that what he saw was “very brief indeed but indeed prevalent”.
Barron added: “I didn’t expect her to pick up due to the time difference.
“The phone was picked up.
“The individual who answered was a shirtless man with darkish hair. This view lasted maybe one second… then the view flipped to the victim.”
Barron said he was “racing with adrenaline” and alleged seeing the woman was “getting hit whilst crying”.
Barron continued: “I made two of my friends call the Met Police in the UK, even though they are in the US.
“As per evidence I do not have any, I was told by the victim who I am very close with that this individual was giving her difficulty for a long time.”
Jurors heard how Rumiantsev was allegedly jealous of Barron’s relationship with the woman and became angry when he attempted to phone her earlier in the evening.
Bodycam video from police at the scene showed the woman telling officers: “I am friends with Barron Trump, Donald Trump’s son.”
One of the officers is then heard telling a colleague: “So apparently this informant from America is likely to be Donald Trump’s son.”
The court was told that the woman had been in a relationship with Rumiantsev for about six months at the time of the attack
Rumiantsev denies assault, actual bodily harm, two counts of rape, intentional strangulation and perverting the course of justice by pressuring the woman to withdraw her complaints.
The trial continues.
