Russell Brand Splits From Katy Perry

Brand offered no other details but in papers filed in Los Angeles Superior Court he cited irreconcilable differences.
The couple met at the MTV Video Music Awards in September 2009 and married in October last year.

But rumours of problems in their relationship circulated right from the start as their respective careers meant they were rarely even in the same country.

Perry and Brand were together earlier this month but spent Christmas apart

Speculation that they had finally called it a day increased after the couple spent Christmas apart, with Brand pictured in Cornwall while pop star Perry was seen with friends in Hawaii.
Despite this, only days ago 27-year-old Perry sought to distance herself from the rumours.
"Just because we don't flaunt our relationship doesn't mean there is something
wrong with it. Privacy is our luxury," she said.
Perry's run of No. 1 singles earned her the distinction of becoming MTV's first artist of the year earlier this month. She hosted Saturday Night Live on December 10 and gave no indication the couple was in trouble.

Brand's recent film credits include Arthur, 'Hop and Get Him To The Greek. He is among the ensemble starring alongside Tom Cruise in Rock of Ages, set for release next year.
Earlier this month Brand told The Ellen DeGeneres Show: "I'm really happily married. I'm married to Katy. Perpetually, until death do us part was the pledge. I'm still alive."

Hearing that they spent Christmas apart in two different parts of the world, then yes people have probably seen this coming.

I think we've seen this coming for a while. There has been no statement released by Katy yet though?

We await with bated breath.

Another sham marriage over between two non-entities, of course we all saw this coming and they have absolutely no sympathy from me when they treat marriage like that.

I actually think it was genuine in the beginning but I doubt they were ready for marriage and that's where it all went wrong.

"Surprise, surprise!" As Cilla would say :rolleyes: It was bound to happen. It was a bit dodgy to begin with. Just a sad rag magazine marriage, no-one should care about these as the value marriage means sod all to celebrities, and the pityful souls who waste their time and money reading these magazines and "news" papers.

Why are things like this classed as news, it's just two people getting divorced, big whoop.

Could see it coming, although I guess it's a shame for them both if they did take it seriously lol.

I'm very disappointed but after the news at Christmas I sort of realised it would be coming eventually. I think they did rush into it all a little bit too quickly and it did seem really genuine at first, but ever since Katy's tour the marriage seemed to deteriorate. Maybe I can have Katy now tho(yn)

lol at people blasting them. It didn't seem to me to be a sham marriage like katie price's marriage to alex w/e his name is. Think it's unfair for people to assume that just cos they're celebrities that it's all a PR stunt. It's sad it didn't work out and I wish them both all the best. it'sa miserable way to start the new year with a divorce but I'm sure they'll both come through it eventually.

no she's mine???

I don't think it was a PR stunt, it seemed like they genuinely loved each other in a way but she was on tour most of the time and busy traveling around the world as was he. I guess we could have seen this coming, I feel really sorry for them :(

It's very predictable, many celeb weddings end after a couple of years. It was probably not for PR, but the media loves the idea of celeb weddings that the gap between hoax and reality become blurred. The world would be a better place if Okay! magazine HQ was set alight one night with all the writers in the building, they do write a lot of dribble no-one should care about.

That said, the couple's relationship always talked about. When she was on tour the media noticed the threads loosening.

"I'll always adore her and I know we'll remain friends." I don't believe that for a second, that was just so he didn't look like a *** head on tv.

I always thought Russell brand was gay so i was a little confused when him and Katy got together.

NO I'm sorry I've been obsessed with him since I was 14 which was a VERY long time ago.

Well no-one ever saw that coming did they:rolleyes:I don't understand why you'd marry somebody if you're hardly ever going to see them. I think they rushed into the whole marriage too fast, if they're more worried about making a career that takes up a lot of time and dedication, they should of focused on that first.

Has nobody asked the question: Why did Katy Perry mary Russell Brand? The sex-addict?

Their marriage was a good thing in a way, I mean from the 2 years they were together, at least they saw eachother once a month.

maybe it's the babies problem. katy wanted babies and i dont think russell wanted it. so, they fought and divorced.

no, no, no. all wrong. hey i don't even like russell brand but it's not fair that he gets the blame despite his past. it was katy that didn't want children? she wanted to focus on her career. & russell didn't like her friends and partying ways which may seem hypocritical of him but he's a recovering junkie/alky, could have shown a little respect. imo if you aren't ready for children then don't get married until you are incase you find out it's not what one of you want but it's a bit silly if they both want children eventually with each other, it's not a huge thing to get divorced over :S
