The remainder of Russell Brand's live shows have been postponed, his promoters have said.

A statement from the show's promoters said: "We are postponing these few remaining addiction charity fundraiser shows, we don't like doing it - but we know you'll understand."

It comes as the Brand faces multiple accusations of sexual assault and emotional abuse by four women.

Brand denied the allegations vehemently on Friday - which were published on Saturday - hours before his show at Wembley, which went ahead.
