Downing Street has described the allegations made against Russell Brand by four different women on Channel 4's 'Dispatches' as “very serious and concerning”.
The comedian and actor has been accused of rape, assault, and emotional abuse between 2006 and 2013, when he was at the height of his fame working for the BBC, Channel 4 and starring in Hollywood films.
Brand and representatives say that he denies the allegations, stating all relationships were consensual.
A spokesperson for the PM said: “These are very serious and concerning allegations.
“The Met Police has asked anyone who believes they have been a victim of a sexual assault to come forward to speak to officers.
Currently, there is not an active police investigation into these allegations.
