Funny man Russell Brand has filed for divorce from singer Katy Perry, his wife of just over a year.  According to court documents, Russell cites “Irreconcilable differences” as his reason for ending the marriage.  Can you really have “irreconcilable difference” after being married just 14 months?  What – was she not preparing the tea and crumpets just right Russell old boy?

And weren’t we just talking about these two taking time off to start a family like… a minute ago?

Earlier today, Brand released a statement regarding the divorce, which read:

Sadly, Katy and I are ending our marriage. I’ll always adore her and I know we’ll remain friends.

I don’t get it.  If you still adore her and want to “remain friends” – why are you breaking up?  I just don’t get these flash-in-the-pan celebrity romances and I guess I never will.

Although Katy Perry and husband Russell Brand have gone very public in recent weeks about wanting to start a family, the pop star swears that she’s not pregnant… yet!

According to an interview with The Insider, Katy insists that she’s not quite ready to give up her party girl ways for motherhood.

I still love drinking alcohol so [I'm] not [pregnant] yet. I like In-N-Out Burger and Taco Bell and if you want to make that pregnant that’s your problem.

Whoa there Katy.  Retract those fangs!  No one’s saying you’re chubbing out – relax and go get yourself a double-double animal style, guilt-free!

As GossipTeen previously reported, pop artist Katy Perry is anxious to start a family with husband, actor Russell Brand - we just didn’t know how anxious!

According to an insider, the star is planning on wrapping her American Dreams world tour in a few short days and then will be taking an “extended hiatus“.

Katy Perry is taking time off to work on her family… She informed her managers that after that, she’ll take a year off to spend time with husband Russell Brand and to start a family.

For some reason, I’m picturing little baby Brand popping out sporting a full, shaggy head of hair, scruffy beard and some sort of raunchy punchline about where he’s been for the last nine months.  I wonder why that is…
