Police told Russell Brand to leave Jemima Goldsmith’s house in 2014

On July 25, 2014, Thames Valley Police were alerted by Jemima Goldsmith, her ex-partner Russell Brand's alleged victim, to a possible violent incident at her Oxfordshire home. Officers arrived at the address, listened to Goldsmith's concerns, and ensured her partner left the property as she had requested, but no arrests were made.

Upon her recent revelation on social media, Goldsmith recounted how she had to call the police to have Brand removed from her residence during a violent episode, though she decided against pressing charges at the time. Goldsmith, who dated Brand for approximately a year, stated that she was "in awe of the courageous women who came forward at Brand's trial" and expressed relief that he had finally faced justice.

She detailed her own personal experience of his violence, coercive control, and abuse, and explained that she had chosen not to press charges due to concerns about the press's impact on her teenage children. Goldsmith, who has neither seen nor spoken to Brand since 2014, also mentioned that she assisted the journalists who exposed him and had been willing to testify against him if needed.
