Television producer Jemima Goldsmith said Russell Brand assaulted her in a 2014 incident at her home, after he was sentenced for sexual offenses against four women.
In a social media statement on Nov. 9, Goldsmith said she called police to have Brand removed. Goldsmith said she did not press charges or go public about the 2014 incident at the time because she feared press attention would affect her teenage children. She also said she has not seen or spoken to Brand since 2014.
The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) said Brand was sentenced at Southwark Crown Court to 10 years and six months in prison for one count of rape and three counts of sexual assault. The offenses involved four women and took place between 2004 and 2009, before the incident Goldsmith described. EconoTimes previously reported the jury’s verdict against Brand.
