Add BollywoodShaadis on GoogleRussell Brand and Katy Perry's short-lived marriage is back in the talks for two major reasons. Firstly, his trial related to sexual misconduct with multiple women, and secondly, due to reports claiming that the pop star will finally break her dignified silence and share 'dark secrets' about her marriage with him through a book and docuseries release.
Russell has recently been convicted of one count of rape and three counts of sexual assault against four women, stemming from offenses committed between 2004 and 2009. Amid that, a video emerged where Katy was seen sobbing uncontrollably after her then-husband dumped her over a text. At that time, her staff could be seen being there for her, consoling and comforting her.
Russell Brand and Katy Perry started having issues in their relationship shortly after their wedding. They married in October 2010, and in December 2011, after just 14 months, he texted her to say he wanted to part ways. When the singer received the message, she couldn't control her emotions and started sobbing uncontrollably. Notably, it happened just minutes before she was about to climb on stage and perform for her fans in Brazil.
The pre-show stress, mixed with the heartbreak of the split, left the Harleys in Hawaii singer in an emotionally vulnerable state. The moment was captured in her documentary Katy Perry: Part Of Me and has recently been circulating on social media after it was revealed that she is going to share all the unknown details about her 'dark marriage' with the sexual assault-convicted actor, Russell Brand.
In the video, Katy Perry is seen lying down, tears rolling down her face after reading a text from Russell asking to get divorced from her. Seeing the Fireworks singer in that state, one of her troupe members said she could either 'cancel the show' or 'do your best.' Katy then decided to go on with the show and told someone named Todd to start it. Her staff offered much-needed support as she headed towards the stage.
From handing Katy tissues to wipe her tears to checking in on her, giving her warm hugs and sharing words of strength, bits and pieces of those enduring moments were caught on camera. They told the pop star, 'You can do it. You're gonna get through it,' and added, 'You're gonna be okay. Come on, honey, you got this.' After sharing those emotional, comforting moments with her teammates, Katy Perry went on with her concert.

In 2013, Katy Perry got candid about her ex-husband Russell Brand's controlling nature in an interview with Vogue. She shared that Russell Brand disliked her being the one in control on her tours. She recalled their first meeting and said he wanted an equal partner. Katy explained that many men want an equal partner, but when they get one, they cannot handle it. She was quoted as saying:
"Russell didn't like the atmosphere of me being the boss on tour. So that was really hurtful, and it was very controlling, which was upsetting. Initially, he wanted an equal. I think a lot of times strong men do want an equal, but then they get that equal and they're like, I can't handle the equalness."
In the same interview, Katy admitted that she initially blamed herself for the divorce. Over time, she learned something about their relationship and called it 'real truth'. At that time, the pop icon chose not to share what she had discovered with the public. However, recent reports claim she has changed her mind about keeping the details private and is considering sharing TMI by writing a book and making a docuseries.
