Russell Brand’s Wife Standing By His Side After Sexual Assault Claims

The woman, who claimed she was 16 when Russell allegedly assaulted her, spoke to the BBC about the comedian’s denial. Russell was accused of having a controlling, abusive, and predatory reputation that was allegedly well-known and overlooked in the industry.

“I think it is insulting,” the woman said. “It is laughable that he would even imply that it’s a mainstream media conspiracy. He’s not outside of mainstream media.”

Another woman, separate from the Times report, came forward and accused Russell of assaulting her in London in 2003.
