    Russell Brand has hit the headlines after denying "criminal allegations" made against him.<\/p>\n

    His statement was released ahead of a mystery Channel 4 Dispatches programme, which is due to be aired at 9pm tonight (September 16) with no information released on its content.<\/p>\n

    The comedian said he "absolutely refuted" the as-yet unknown allegations against him, suggesting they were made at a time when he was in the mainstream media.<\/p>\n

    Brand now maintains a relatively quiet life away from the spotlight with his wife Laura Gallacher.<\/p>\n

    Russell, 48, and Laura, 36, have been married since 2017, but had known each other for years before that.<\/p>\n

    In fact, they first dated 10 years earlier, in 2007, after being introduced to each other by her sister \u2013 former Sky Sports host and model Kirsty Gallacher.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    Then, Laura was 19 and studying art, while Russell was 30 and enjoying a successful television career.<\/p>\n

    Laura would go on to tell You magazine she had "really" fallen for Russell and had "never experienced love like that before".<\/p>\n

    Of course, most will know it didn't last, and Russell spoke out about it during an appearance on The Wendy Williams Show.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    He said: "We went out with each other, we loved each other very much, but I was [in a phase where] I thought the world was an amusement park made out of orgasms."<\/p>\n

    Between the time he and Laura came back into each other's lives years later, Russell had a string of romances.<\/p>\n

    He married Katy in 2010 but they split up 14 months later, with their devastating break-up playing out on her docu-film Part Of Me.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    Russell went on to be linked to the likes of Geri Horner, Zara Martin and Jemima Khan, but he eventually found Laura again.<\/p>\n

    The duo met again in 2015 when a friend of Laura's "dragged" her for a walk in east London after she was left "heartbroken" by a breakup.<\/p>\n

    They bumped into Russell during the walk, and they've been together since.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    Laura said on the Made By Mammas podcast: "I hadn't seen Russell for years. He was so different. We both immediately knew it was going to be serious."<\/p>\n

    They took things "very slow" and just spent time "getting to know each other and going out on day trips together".<\/p>\n

    The couple got married in August 2017, but by then they'd already welcomed their first child, daughter Mabel, in 2016.<\/p>\n

    Laura told Grazia previously: "I remember him saying, 'I think I want a quiet life and a family,' and it was exactly what I wanted.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

    "So, then it was about seeing if we could build a foundation to make that happen."<\/p>\n

    And they did just that, welcoming their second child together, another daughter, Peggy, in 2018.<\/p>\n

    Then earlier this year, in June, Russell revealed on podcast The Diary of a CEO that they were expecting their third child.<\/p>\n

    Speaking of being a dad, Russell said: "It's taught me there is a lot more important in this world than me."<\/p>\n
