Russell Brand is now ‘living in the US full time – and may be extradited to the UK to face sex crime charges’
RUSSELL Brand is now reportedly living in the US full time and could be extradited to the UK to face sex crime charges, it is claimed.
The actor and comedian, 49, has moved his young family from Oxfordshire to Florida, saying he is being “attacked” and “shut down” by the British authorities.
It’s understood they relocated last autumn before Donald Trump’s victory at the presidential election.
Scotland Yard is investigating the star over historic allegations of sexual assault.
But with him thought to have permanently left the UK it could result in potentially lengthy extradition proceedings if British prosecutors decide to charge Brand, reports the Sunday Times.
It comes after the ex Big Brother’s Big Mouth presenter was spotted for the first time since the BBC apologised for a “culture of silence” about his alleged behaviour.
He was seen leaving a yoga session in Florida on Friday.
He is staying with wife Laura and their children at a £1.9million bungalow in Santa Rosa Beach.
Met Police detectives are said to have passed the CPS a full file of evidence in November following a 13-month inquiry as a result of an expose by the Sunday Times and Channel 4’s Dispatches.
Brand has been interviewed under caution three times.
He denies any wrongdoing and says his sexual relationships were “absolutely always consensual”.
If the CPS considers a charge is authorised while Brand is across the pond, he could be detained by US cops under an international arrest warrant.
The Home Office would have to submit a formal extradition request to Washington on its behalf to seek his return to the UK for court proceedings.
However, Brand’s legal team would be able to turn to the US courts to appeal against such action.
THE TRUMAN SHOW
Neighbours in Santa Rose Beach say the star has been going to church in the town, featured in 1998 film The Truman Show.
A source said: “We see him in his 4×4. He always says hello.”
Meanwhile, the BBC apologised to staff members after dropping a bombshell report into Brand’s behaviour.
The Beeb published the findings of an investigation into his time as a presenter for BBC Radio 2 and 6 Music.
The Peter Johnston review looked at eight complaints between 2006 and 2008 with two made while he still worked for the BBC.
Only one of those was formally made to the corporation.
It found a number of people “felt unable to raise” concerns about the presenter and believed he “would always get his way and therefore they stayed silent”.
It also said the actor and comedian was “perceived to be too influential” for staff to complain about.
Inside the ‘most expensive’ gypsy wedding ever at posh Dorchester with 350 guests, three dresses and rumoured £250k bill
A TRAVELLER bride who tied the knot at London’s iconic 5-star Dorchester is said to have hosted the “most expensive” gypsy wedding ever.
Louise Durant, 21, said ‘I do’ to Billy Maguire, 22, at a winter wonderland-inspired nuptials in December and is rumoured to have racked up a bill worth £250,000 that her parents gladly paid for.
The young couple hosted 350 guests at the luxurious Mayfair hotel, where room hire can start at £10,000.
Louise, whose family is from the Traveller community, said her wedding was “more than a dream come true” in an interview with MailOnline.
She had 12 bridesmaids, three wedding dresses and embarked on a three and a half week honeymoon to Barbados, Orlando and New York after the big day.
“It was beyond my wildest imaginations,” she said.
“The day started amazingly and just got better and better.
“It was perfect.”
Louise’s parents saved for two years to put on the lavish celebration, but couldn’t confirm how much exactly it set them back.
They admitted it cost well over £100,000 and reportedly didn’t baulk when figures around £250,000 were mentioned.
It was funded by Louise’s family’s holiday and lettings business, where the young couple from Yorkshire both work.
They had been together for four years before tying the knot on December 14 last year.
Their Christian ceremony took place at St John’s Church in Hyde Park, with guests being ferried there by four ex-London double decker buses.
Afterwards, the hundreds of attendees were taken to The Dorchester on Park Lane, which was a favourite place of the late Queen Elizabeth II.
They had a lavish three course meal of mushroom soup, a Christmas dinner and sticky toffee pudding for dessert.
The evening ceremony was in the posh hotel’s ballroom and ran until 1am.
Pictures from the day show disco balls, elaborate table designs, extravagant flower arrangements, Christmas crackers and huge, white fondant cake.
DRESS TO IMPRESS
Louise had three dresses for her big day.
The main one was a grand designed by Eleni Bridal Couture of North London and featured a corset-style bodice embroidered with lace detailing.
Later in the night, Louise slipped into a silver sparkling mini dress with stiletto heels and a white fur shawl.
She also wore a tutu-esque dress for one portion of the night.
Louise looked stunning in a crystal-encrusted tiara, a voluminous up-do, dainty jewellery and flawless bridal make-up.
Her bridesmaids matched her in all-white dresses of their own from Michaela Couture, complete with fur jackets draped over their shoulders.
‘ROYAL WEDDING’
Louise shared snippets from her big day on TikTok, sparking viewers to liken her nuptials to a royal wedding.
One even reckons the young couple “knocks spots off the Royals”.
“There will never be any wedding as lovely as yours,” one penned.
“Best of luck to you both.”
“Now that’s what I call being in heaven on earth,” another gasped.
“Many congratulations.”
“Oh wow, this is like a Hollywood film,” a third said.
Others thought her clips looked like something out of a “fairytale” and gushed over how “beautiful” Louise looked.
Guests from the big day chimed in that it was “the best wedding ever” and reminisced on the “stunning” day.

Snooker ace Neil Robertson emotional as he wins special award that when he first heard about ‘made me feel quite edgy’
NEIL ROBERTSON is hoping that when he flies to Australia to pick up a prestigious individual gong he will be bringing the Crucible trophy home.
The Melbourne-born cueist has been awarded the Medal of the Order by the Australian Government – which means he can have the OAM title after his full name.
This is in recognition of his outstanding achievements and service in the sport of snooker, specifically his world title win in Sheffield 15 years ago.
At some point, he will need to fly to Oz to receive the honour from officials – possibly in the capital Canberra – and the dream would be to go there with some extra silverware in his suitcase.
Robertson, 42, said: “That would be sensational, wouldn’t it? That would be awesome. To win at the Crucible before going out there.
“I believe there are events in April, May and September where you can pick up the OAM.
“So, I am hoping the May one is in the middle of the month after the Crucible has finished.
“That would be perfect timing, go home, see my family, That would be a really, really proud moment.”
Robertson, winner of 24 ranking titles, is arguably the most successful snooker player from outside the UK and Ireland.
In his career, he has hit five maximum breaks and only Ronnie O’Sullivan, Judd Trump and John Higgins have hit more centuries than the left hander’s mark of 972.
CASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITS
The Thunder from Down Under said: “I received an email in December saying I would be considered for the award.
“It made me feel quite edgy. I was so excited but I didn’t know how much of a formality it would be. Or if I’d miss out.
“In some sports you have Hall of Fame nominations and some people never ever get in or only when they retire.
“You want these awards while you are competing at the top of the sport.
“I then got an email saying it would be announced on January 26 – Australia Day – and I was full of emotion.
“You never think you will get something like this.
“Especially an Australian playing snooker. Australia doesn’t just hand out awards in sport.
“You need to be a big winner. I think I have definitely been that. I am happy to get the honour for sure.
“I’ve seen Ronnie and Stephen Hendry get various honours in Britain.
“So to get that myself through snooker and join them with the Australian version, I’m really proud.
“My legacy extends beyond Australia. I have been a big inspiration to overseas players.
“Before I came along, and Ding Junhui as well, nobody had had huge success on a consistent basis.
“I think between us we have combined for nearly 40 ranking events.
“We have left an amazing legacy behind and inspired others to see that it’s possible to come from the other side of the world to have a successful career in snooker.”
