Kevin Spacey has a 'predatory nature and is totally dead inside'. Now he ... trends now

Randy Fowler is a very flamboyant character with the whitest teeth I have ever seen.

He dresses each day in one of his 250 brightly coloured suits, with a statement tie and ruffled blouse and looks the spit of Rod Stewart.

He lives in Boise, Idaho with four patchwork toy cats (after his real ones died) and 'Trish the Dish', his partner of 30 years, a former corporate lawyer who, back in the day, was three-times winner of Idaho's Over-40s Women's Body Builder title.

Randy is also the big brother of Kevin Spacey – the double Oscar-winning actor who has been accused, charged, tried and now twice exonerated – in courts in the US and, last year, in the UK – for a series of alleged sexual assaults against young men.

Kevin, who changed his surname from Fowler for professional reasons, has always strongly denied any impropriety and, since then, has been charged with no further crimes.

But he is still on the hook for damages of $31million (£26million) after being removed from his hit Netflix show, House of Cards, following allegations that he was 'systematically preying upon, sexually harassing, and groping young men'.

And the allegations of sexual impropriety keep bubbling.

This week, in Channel Four's Spacey Unmasked, another 10 men publicly accused him of historical sexually predatory behaviour – several were former Marines, hoping to become actors. Others dated back to Spacey's triumphant tenure as director of the Old Vic Theatre in London between 2003 and 2015.

In response to the documentary, the actor said: 'I've never told someone that if they give me sexual favours, then I will help them out with their career, never'.

Randy pops up in the programme too – in an electric blue frockcoat and gold-rimmed classes – to give a bit of background context to his world-famous brother.

Thanks to Randy, we learn about the 'monstrous' Fowler parents. That their mother, Kathleen, was a religious fanatic and their father, Thomas – whom he called 'the creature'– was a neo-Nazi, homophobic Holocaust denier, who worshipped Hitler, trimmed his own moustache to match Adolf's, festooned their homes in swastikas and beat his children with a riding crop.

Randy bravely tells of the years of horrific sexual abuse that he suffered at the hands of their father. He also claims that he did everything in his power to protect his little brother but can tell from Kevin's behaviour that the damage was done anyway.

'He's never been honest with himself. He ran away from the truth when he got into acting and he's been running away from it ever since'.

'He hides behind his characters because he can't be himself. He doesn't even know who Kevin Fowler is.'

It turns out that Randy had an awful lot more to say than there'd been room for in Katherine Haywood's two-part documentary – 'I wasn't in it very much in the end,' he says, sounding a bit surprised.

So, earlier this week, he and I picked up the conversation by Zoom and he drops brotherly bombshell after bombshell.

He talks about Kevin's 'predatory nature'.

'He is totally dead inside. He has no remorse, no feelings. It's all about self-gratification at any cost. It was so painful to listen to these gentlemen talk about their encounters with my brother,' he says.

He also tells of Kevin's close relationship with their mother.

And how Kevin had a bizarre habit of 'magpie-ing' entire stories from Randy's youth and presenting them as his own in interviews, to make him seem more troubled. Very specific tales, such as how he once set fire to their sister's chicken coop.

'Those were my stories, my past. Not his!'

But we start at last year's trial at Southwark Crown Court when, after being found not guilty of sexually assaulting four men in their 20s and 30s, Spacey stood in the dock and wept with relief.

It is no surprise to hear the brothers are not on speaking terms.

'He dusted me out of his life. He doesn't even send a Christmas card. We've only seen each other five times in the last 45 years,' says Randy.

Or that relations have been strained for a long time.

Back in 2003 when Randy produced the first draft of his book – then called 'Brothers split by Secrets' – about their terrible childhood, he says Kevin and his lawyers flexed their muscles to stop it being published.

'It was about me, not him, but I wanted him to read it. He had to face the truth.'

Fourteen years later, when the first allegations of sexual impropriety were levelled at Spacey, Randy had another go at it.

'I sat down and wrote the whole thing in just 49 days – 89,500 words! I was truly divinely inspired.'

This time it was called 'A Moment In time - Living in the Shadows' and, again, there is plenty about his famous brother in it.

'That's why he hates me. I am the keeper of the truth.'

Randy insists he was not motivated by cash.

'That is bull****! I've only sold 500 copies, but I didn't write the book to make any money. I just want to help people. I'm trying to do God's work – whichever god we're talking about. To help others' call for help.'

But it did lay bare the dark underbelly of the Fowler
