Russell Brand told woman to ‘clear up the mess you’ve made’ after alleged rape, court hears

Woman says alleged assault at comedian’s London home was one of most painful experiences of her life

A woman has said she “couldn’t speak or breathe” when Russell Brand raped her at his London townhouse after picking her out from a crowd after one of his gigs, a court has heard.

She said the comedian looked “horrified” after the alleged attack so she assumed he would apologise but instead he told her: “Clear up the mess you’ve made.”
