Russell Brand has reportedly been moved to a low-security prison, with access to his own cell, yoga, bowling and more, after he was sentenced to more than 10 years in prison for rape and sexual assault. The actor was transferred to HMP Littlehey in Cambridgeshire, England, on Friday, which primarily holds an estimated 1,200 male sexual offenders, the Sun reported Saturday. An insider told the outlet that Brand “looked like he was s–tting himself” as guards escorted him to a single-person cell.

Per the outlet, Littlehey is a safer prison for Brand than the high-security HMP Wakefield facility he was reportedly almost transferred to. Littlehey offers Brand the choice to participate in a football league, board games, origami classes and choir sessions. The prison also features indoor bowling, two gyms and a few sports halls.

Former Metropolitan Police detective Mick Neville told the Sun that Brand was likely transferred to Littlehey because Wakefield, which is dubbed a “Monster Mansion” prison, was too unsafe. “People will see Littlehey as Brand given a soft option,” Neville explained. “People would expect him to spend time in a jail such as Monster Mansion after the appalling things he did.” The source continued, saying Brand has “had extra officers looking after him since he arrived.” (Seen here: A walkway at the prison.)

Brand remains behind bars after he was sentenced to 10 years and six months in prison on Nov. 9, following a nearly four-week trial, which saw him being convicted of rape and sexual assault. The “Rock of Ages” star’s conviction stems from incidents in the 2000s.

Last Thursday, six additional women accused the former comedian of sexual misconduct, with the alleged incidents occurring around the same time as the prior misconduct he was convicted of. A rep for Brand has yet to address the new allegations. If you or someone you know is affected by any of the issues raised in this story, call the Sexual Assault Hotline at 1-800-330-0226.
