Russell Brand has been charged by UK police over alleged driving offences, the Standard newspaper reports.
The British newspaper reports that it has obtained court papers revealing the controversial figure faces two allegations of speeding, along with two counts of failing to disclose if he or someone else was behind the wheel of a Mini registered to Brand.
This is a separate police matter from London’s Metropolitan Police investigation into allegations of sex crimes made against Brand by multiple women, all of which he denies.
September 2023 saw The Sunday Times newspaper and broadcaster Channel 4’s Despatches investigation teams collaborate on an investigation into Brand’s sexual history, which he has admitted was “very, very promiscuous.”

After the allegations came out, he posted a video denying all claims against him and saying any sexual interactions were “absolutely always consensual.”
This week, the police have handed the file over to the Crown Prosecution Service who will consider if there is sufficient evidence for Brand to face trial.
