Mia Latter alleges Russell Brand raped her as a 16-year-old
A woman who made allegations about Russell Brand in a 2023 UK media investigation has revealed her identity.
Mia Latter, 37, has revealed she was raped by Russell Brand when she was just 16 years old. The woman, who was once known as "Alice" in a 2023 joint investigation by The Times, The Sunday Times, and Channel 4, has waived her right to anonymity to speak about her experience. At the time, Brand was 30 years old. The relationship lasted around three months, during which Latter claims he raped her orally.
She describes him as a "monster" who fetishized her youth, carrying her like a baby, calling her "the child," and bathing her. Following a 2023 interview where she alleged grooming, emotional abuse, and sexual abuse from Brand, the police decided to remove her from the trial, stating they didn't want the case to revolve around her.
She has since removed herself from any further involvement in the legal process. Latter is now advocating for changes to UK consent laws, specifically proposing to increase the age of consent when an older partner is involved.
