The 48-year-old actor and comedian confirmed the news while opening up about the "intimate and personal" experience on social media.
"I felt changed," he said after Sunday's event before going on to thank his fans for their support, as well as his critics for expressing their "cynicism." "People are so cynical about the increasing interest in Christianity and the return to God, but to me, it's obvious," he said. In September, a Channel 4 Dispatches and Sunday Times investigation revealed allegations from four women accusing Brand of rape, sexual assault, and abuse during the peak of his fame from 2006 to 2013, according to the Independent.
