I'm Alice | The Trial of Russell Brand - The Sunday Story

WARNING: This episode contains descriptions some listeners may find distressing.

Mia Latter was known as Alice in The Times and The Sunday Times' 2023 reporting. She had a relationship with Russell Brand in 2006 when she was 16 and he was 30.

She alleges that during that relationship Brand was emotionally abusive, cruel, controlling – and that he orally raped her. Allegations Brand denied.

Now, Mia has waived her right to anonymity to share her story with our sister podcast The Trial of Russel Brand, so she can campaign for a staggered age of consent in the UK, restricting sexual activity between teenagers and those in their 30s or older.

Read how Rosamund and Charlotte helped women expose Russell Brand.
