After being charged with raping and sexually assaulting a woman between May 5 and August 10, Lord Charles Brocket, 73, appeared in Westminster Magistrates’ Court today.
Lord Charles Brocket, the star of I’m A Celebrity, has been accused of rape and sexual assault. A woman is accused of raping and sexually assaulting her between May 5 and August 10 by the 73-year-old peer.
Brocket, who finished fourth on the 2004 series of I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! appeared at Westminster Magistrates’ Court charged with two counts of rape and one count of sexual assault by penetration. He was not asked to enter any pleas and was granted bail ahead of a hearing at Isleworth Crown Court on 26 August.
A spokesperson for the Metropolitan Police told The Mirror: “Charles Brocket, 73, (12.2.52), from Fulham, appears at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Saturday, 30 August charged with two counts of rape and sexual assault by penetration.
Brocket was detained on suspicion of rape on Friday, August 29 and charged on Saturday, August 30. The incident that occurred in Fulham on Saturday, August 10th, involved a woman, and is the subject of the rape accusations. Police received a report on the situation the same day.
The sexual assault by penetration charge is related to a Warbleton, East Sussex incident that occurred on May 5th. Specialist officers are assisting the victim.
During the brief hearing, where the prosecution’s Aarya Mishra presented the allegations, Brocket, a resident of Fulham, west London, confirmed his name, birthdate, and address.
Brocket denied the allegations, but the court heard he was not required to enter pleas to any of the charges, which can only be tried in the crown court. He was given bail with conditions by district judge Louisa Cieciora. She claimed that because of a GPS-monitored exclusion, Brocket, who was represented by Henry Milner, must appear at Isleworth Crown Court for the following hearing on September 26.
Lord Charles Brocket was known for his eccentric antics on the third series of I’m a Celebrity, but didn’t stay in the spotlight for too long.
