Jemima Goldsmith accuses Russell Brand of violence and coercive control

Russell Brand sentenced to 10.5 years in prison

Russell Brand, 51, received a sentence of 10-and-a-half years in prison on Monday at Southwark Crown Court. The court convicted him for the rape of a fan and the sexual assault of three other women between 2004 and 2009.

Brand will remain in prison for at least seven years, or two-thirds of his total sentence, before he becomes eligible for release. Authorities transported him to HMP Wandsworth in London on Monday following the hearing.

The judge remarked during sentencing that Brand showed a "casual arrogant disregard to any woman's right to say no to you". The judge also stated he believed Brand felt his fame allowed him to act as he pleased.

Goldsmith details 2014 police intervention

Goldsmith stated that police removed Brand from her home following a violent incident in 2014.

She wanted to protect her teenage children from the impact of press attention. Goldsmith confirmed she has not seen or spoken to Brand since 2014.

Goldsmith assisted journalists in exposing Brand

Sunday Times correspondent Rosamund Urwin said Goldsmith provided significant help and attempted to explain that the situation was more complex than the public realized.

Goldsmith assisted journalists who exposed allegations against Brand and was willing to testify regarding his "abusiveness" if the reporters were sued.

Following the trial, Goldsmith said she was "in awe of the courageous women who came forward" and ensured justice was served.

Goldsmith addresses 2015 injunction controversy

Goldsmith issued a 1,534-word statement on Monday to address "misleading reports" regarding a 2015 harassment injunction she and Brand obtained against a masseuse named Szilvia Berki. The injunction stemmed from a June 2014 massage gift that Goldsmith arranged for Brand, which did not ultimately take place.

Mr Justice Jay granted the injunction in October 2015 to prevent Berki from harassing the couple, which included making allegations of assault against Brand. Goldsmith defended her support for the injunction, stating it was necessary to protect her family.

She agreed to the harassment order at the suggestion of Brand's lawyer, noting her sole reason was to stop Berki from targeting her and her family. Goldsmith stated that media reporting on the injunction created an "untrue narrative" that led to her receiving "vile hatred and abuse online".

Circumstances surrounding the 2014 massage incident

On June 7, 2014, Szilvia Berki visited the home of Jemima Goldsmith for a massage that did not occur. Goldsmith said she remained present for the entire meeting between Berki and Brand and witnessed no untoward behavior. She did not see the assault that Berki later reported to the police.

Police investigated the assault claim and concluded there was no case to answer. Goldsmith alleged that Berki launched a harassment campaign against her and her family following the incident. This campaign involved sending disturbing emails and publishing untrue stories.

Goldsmith also claimed that individuals submitted antisemitic comments to the judge who issued the harassment injunction against Berki. The Independent reported that it has been unable to contact Berki.

Background on the relationship between Goldsmith and Brand

Goldsmith and Brand dated for approximately one year, with reports placing the relationship in 2013 and 2014. Brand is 51 years old.

Goldsmith was previously married to Imran Khan, a cricketer and former prime minister of Pakistan.
