Brand says he now feels 'nourished' and 'as though a new resource' has been 'switched on inside me' following his baptism on Sunday.
Russell Brand was yesterday baptised in the Thames as the disgraced comic turns to Christianity after allegations of rape and sexual assault.
Last year a Dispatches documentary on Channel 4 exposed allegations of sexual assaults during the height of his fame, as part of an investigation with The Sunday Times and The Times. He described being baptised as an 'incredible profound experience' and that 'something occurred in the process of baptism that was incredible, overwhelming'.
In his announcement last week, Brand said: 'What's been explained to me is, it's an opportunity to die and be reborn. An opportunity to leave the past behind and be reborn in Christ's name.' After the claims came to light, Brand appeared on Tucker Carlson's show last month, where he referenced the allegations he faces'As meaning deteriorates in the modern world, as our value systems and institutions crumble, all of us become increasingly aware that there is this eerily familiar awakening and beckoning figure that we've all known all of our lives, within us and around us.
