Perry 'wanted Brand to file for divorce to avoid upsetting parents'
Katy Perry reportedly wanted her husband Russell Brand to file divorce papers because she did not want to upset her religious parents.
It was revealed yesterday that the comic actor had filed separation documents in Los Angeles citing "irreconcilable differences" and the pop star wanted Russell to take the lead because she was raised by her mother and father, Mary and Keith Hudson – who are both Evangelical Christian pastors - to believe divorce is wrong.
