Katie Price shares thoughts on Russell Brand's jail sentence - Geo News
Katie Price has shared her point of view on Russell Brand's conviction after previously opening up about the her alleged rape by another British TV star 20 years ago.
The British comedian and actor, 51, was jailed for more than ten years this week after being convicted of one count of rape and three counts of sexual assault at Southwark Crown Court.
However, he was acquitted of two other rape charges and one count of attempted indecent assault.
In the wake of Brand's sentencing, Katie spoke about the case on her podcast, The Katie Price Show,Β which she co-hosts with her sister Sophie.
She said on Thursday: 'Obviously I met Russell Brand years ago a few times. My old security man Danny went on to do security for Russell.
'Anyway, I'm glad Brand got sentenced because of the victims. It means a lot for them. 'I just hope more victims come forward because there's been lots of drama series and stuff like that, true ones, where rape victims come through and they're not believed. And the police have mocked them and not believed them.
'My advice to victims is please be strong and come through because if you do it will help other people to put away these predators.
'I believe there are more investigations now coming through with Russell Brand.'
Moreover, Katie, 48, said last October that she had not reported the celebrity she claimed raped her to the police because she 'didn't want to get involved in it.'
