Thames Valley Police have released a fresh statement after Russell Brand was sentenced to 10 years and six months in prison. The force confirmed they were called to an address as early as 2014 to respond to claims of an assault by Brand on his former girlfriend Jemima Goldsmith.
The force said it “ensured the victim’s partner left the address”, adding that no arrests were made at the time.
