Russell Brand has opened up about the breakdown of his high-profile marriage to pop star Katy Perry, offering rare insight into why their union came to an end after just over a year. Speaking on his podcast Stay Free with Russell Brand, the 49-year-old comedian and presenter described their divorce as the result of 'normal human reasons' that affect many marriages, while maintaining a tone of respect for his ex-wife.
'When I was married to Katy Perry, she's not entirely normal, because she's an extraordinary, massive star, but she's not weird or off-key,' Brand said during the episode. 'The reasons that a marriage didn't work are the normal human reasons marriages don't work, and I have nothing but respect for her.'
