Breaking Katy Perry And Russell Brand News of the Day: The rumors can be denied no longer: Russell Brand has formally filed for divorce from his wife of 14 months, Katy Perry.

“Sadly, Katy and I are ending our marriage,” the comedian said in a statement. “I’ll always adore her and I know we’ll remain friends.”

The couple spent months rejecting rumors of their relationship’s impending demise. “I’m really happily married,” Russell told Ellen last month. ” I’m married to Katy. Perpetually, until death do us part was the pledge. I’m still alive.”

According to TMZ, Brand — who was recently spotted sans wedding band — may have “blindsided” Perry with today’s announcement.

The two exchanged vows in India on Oct. 23, 2010.
