Comedian and actor Russell Brand has arrived at court to face rape and sexual assault charges.

Brand did not speak to reporters as he walked into Westminster Magistrates’ Court today (Friday, May 2) after flying back to the UK from the US for the hearing.

‌

Last month, the 49-year-old was charged by post with one count each of rape, indecent assault and oral rape, as well as two counts of sexual assault, relating to four separate women.

‌

The charges came following a joint investigation in September 2023 by The Sunday Times, The Times and Channel 4 Dispatches in which several women accused him of rape, sexual assaults and emotional abuse.

Brand previously said he welcomed the opportunity to prove his innocence in a video previously posted on his X account.

He arrived to the court just before 9.30am wearing sunglasses and a navy open-buttoned shirt. Photographers surrounded his car when it pulled up outside the court on Marylebone Road where there was also a police presence.

It took the comedian more than two minutes to walk the short distance from his vehicle to the court door as photographers attempted to get a shot of his arrival.

‌

Brand is charged with the rape of a woman in 1999 in the Bournemouth area and the oral rape and sexual assault of a woman in 2004 in the Westminster area of London.

The 2004 sexual assault charge alleges the actor touched the woman’s breasts without her consent.

He is also accused of indecently assaulting a woman in 2001 by “grabbing her arm and dragging her towards a male toilet”, and sexually assaulting another woman between 2004 and 2005 – both offences are alleged to have taken place in Westminster, London.

Between 2006 and 2008, Brand presented a BBC Radio 2 show and left the role after his on-air prank, now known as Sachsgate, when he left a “lewd” voicemail for Fawlty Towers actor Andrew Sachs about his granddaughter.

As well as this, he presented on Big Brother spin-off shows Big Brother’s Big Mouth and Big Brother: Celebrity Hijack in the noughties.

‌

From 2010 to 2012, the film star was married to US pop singer Katy Perry but is now married to Laura Gallacher, the sister of presenter Kirsty, and the pair have two children, Mabel and Peggy.
