The Trial: Russell Brand - The "Peacock"

The Trial: Russell Brand - The "Peacock"

The woman who was Russell Brand's PA at the height of his fame has said his sexual appetite was "insane." Helen Berger was giving evidence at his trial for several counts of sex offences. She said she often encountered Russell Brand having sex with different women - in his dressing room, in the bedroom of his flat in Camden, in the shower and in public toilets. She said even when he was working on a deadline he would ask for a break to "go and have sex." She said his behaviour was normalised by those around him and she quit after eight months. She said she never witnessed anything illegal but he treated women poorly.
