Katy Perry said her ex 'should be in jail'
Key Points:
- Katy Perry reportedly joked during a July 1 concert in Oxfordshire that her ex-husband Russell Brand "should be in jail," months before his guilty verdict on rape and sexual assault charges.
- Perry, who was married to Brand from 2010 to 2012, had previously described him as controlling and acknowledged the difficulties in their marriage in a 2013 Vogue interview.
- Brand was convicted last week in London of one count of rape and three counts of sexual assault, receiving a sentence of 10 years and six months, and is currently incarcerated at HMP Wandsworth.
- Brand is expected to be transferred to another prison based on security, safety, and rehabilitation needs, while reports suggest he is facing significant challenges at his current facility.
- Perry is currently in a relationship with former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, whom she began dating in July 2025.
