Comedian and actor Russell Brand has appeared in court court to face rape and sexual assault charges.
Brand spoke to confirm his name and address as he appeared at Westminster Magistrates’ Court after being charged with sexual offences, including rape.
Holding his sunglasses behind his back, Brand confirmed he lived at Ferry Lane, Hambleden, Buckinghamshire.

He did not speak to reporters as he walked into court on Friday morning after flying back to the UK from the US for the hearing. The TV personality was wearing sunglasses and a navy open-buttoned shirt as he arrived at the court, with media outside awaiting his arrival. Photographers surrounded Brand’s car as it arrived on Marylebone Road in London.
The 49-year-old was charged by post last month 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 by The Sunday Times, The Times and Channel 4 Dispatches in September 2023 in which several women accused him of rape, sexual assaults and emotional abuse. In a video previously posted on his X account, Brand said he welcomed the opportunity to prove his innocence.

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.
Brand, who presented a BBC Radio 2 show between 2006 and 2008, 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.
He also presented on Big Brother spin-off shows Big Brother’s Big Mouth and Big Brother: Celebrity Hijack in the noughties.
The TV and film star was married to US pop singer Katy Perry from 2010 to 2012 but is now married to Laura Gallacher, the sister of presenter Kirsty, and the pair have two children, Mabel and Peggy.
