Russell Brand ‘sent car to take 16-year-old he called “The Child” out of lessons’

Russell Brand allegedly sent a car to take his 16-year-old lover out of school classes.

The comic, 48, is facing accusations of rape, sexual assaults and emotional abuse from four women, and one of them, who said he assaulted her when she was a teenage schoolgirl, has detailed how he apparently called her “The Child” and was obsessed with her being pure and innocent.

Known only as Alice to protect her identity, the woman accuses the comic of subjecting her to an “emotionally abusive” and “controlling” relationship by the comedian when he was 31 for about three months.
