Russell Brand faces accusations from 6 more women just days after being sentenced to 10 years in prison for sexual assault

Wait 5 sec.

Russell Brand is facing new accusations of sexual misconduct and predatory behavior from six more women, days after he was sentenced to more than 10 years in prison. The allegations come from an investigation by The Times and The Sunday Times, as reported by the Guardian. The newspapers held the claims until his criminal trial ended to avoid prejudicing the case. The comedian, 51, was convicted at Southwark Crown Court in London of raping a 21-year-old fan and sexually assaulting three other women in separate incidents between 2004 and 2009. He was cleared of two additional rape charges and one count of attempted indecent assault. He was sentenced to 10 years and six months in prison. The Times said it took extensive steps to verify the new claims and that none of the women were paid. Brand was approached for comment through his legal representatives after his conviction. His lawyer reportedly raised the possibility of seeking injunctive relief, but no response to the specific allegations was provided by the deadline. None of these new claims have been tested in court One woman claimed she had an on-off relationship with Brand in the late 2000s. She alleged that during one encounter, she asked him to stop because he was not wearing a condom. “I said: ‘No, stop,’ and I started to sort of try and move. And … that wasn’t happening,” she told the Times. She said she chose not to fight back because she feared what he might do, and claimed that Brand later apologized to her in person and by text message.

She further alleged that Brand told her afterward, “Tonight was consensual. Nobody did anything they didn’t want to do.” A third woman claimed Brand “manhandled” her and forced his hand down her trousers after a 2013 performance at The Chapel in San Francisco. Another woman alleged that Brand approached her at a music festival in 2005 and asked to pay her for sex. A woman who was a guest on his show in 2006 claimed Brand became angry when she refused to lick a toilet seat at his home. She said he “seemed p***** off that I wouldn’t let him humiliate me.” A staff member at a London venue also alleged that in 2015, Brand grabbed her in a restroom after his team sent her there, claiming he needed toilet paper. Brand has previously denied any wrongdoing and maintained that all of his relationships were consensual. Some high-profile figures called his sentence unjust before it was handed down. Following the conviction, Prime Minister Andy Burnham said the media industry needs to “look at itself” and “step forward” to protect women and girls. His comments also followed separate allegations of sexual misconduct against comedian David Walliams, who has denied the claims. Brand was first charged with rape and sexual assault in 2025, following a 2023 investigation by The Times, The Sunday Times, and Channel 4’s Dispatches. The Metropolitan Police confirmed after the verdict that it is investigating rape allegations from two more women.
