The pair call an end to their marriage after 14 months together.
Katy Perry and Russell Brand are set to divorce after just over a year of marriage.
In court papers filed today (30th December), the British comedian turned actor cited "irreconcilable differences" for the split. The pair wed in India in October 2010.
"Sadly, Katy and I are ending our marriage," Russell added in a statement to the Associated Press. "I'll always adore her and I know we'll remain friends."
Katy and Russell's marriage had been the speculation of huge speculation in recent months.
And reports heightened after the couple spent Christmas apart, with the 'Teenage Dream' star vacationing in Hawaii while Russell was in the UK.
Katy recently returned to the US following the conclusion of her massive worldwide 'California Dreams' tour.
At the time, she told Capital FM she was looking forward to being reunited with her husband and spending the Christmas period together.
