Jemima Goldsmith, a British television producer, has said that her former partner, the comedian Russell Brand, physically assaulted her, according to a report in The Guardian. The 52-year-old said she has accused him of "violence, coercive control and abuse," The Guardian reported.

The Guardian also reported that the relationship reportedly ended in 2014. The newspaper noted that Brand has been sentenced to more than 10 years in prison for rape and sexual assault.

BBC News, in its own report on the allegations, said Goldsmith accused Brand of violence and abuse against her while the two were together.

The New York Times reported that Goldsmith made the allegations publicly for the first time after Brand's sentencing for rape and sexual assault. In a New York Times report, the paper said she accused him of "coercive control" during their relationship.

The reports describe the claims in somewhat different terms. The Guardian described physical assault, while the BBC and The New York Times described violence and abuse during the relationship. The reports reviewed do not describe the alleged incidents, when or where they occurred, or whether Brand has responded to the allegations.
