Russell Brand took off his wedding ring on video a month before he announced divorce from Katy Perry

A video has emerged of Russell Brand taking off his wedding ring, just two weeks after his first wedding anniversary with Katy Perry back in November.

Russell Brand posted the video on porn website Nudevista as he began a week-long tour of various universities in America.

In the footage, Russell Brand is seen saying: “I am going to meet people from sororities and fraternities. I don’t know what a sorority is except for what I have seen on Nudevista – that they are sort of sex clubs for women.

“A week of revolution and, more importantly, I am going to learn first-hand about sororities.”

Russell Brand is then seen taking his ring off in full view of the camera, before adding: “I’m just going to place this somewhere very, very safe for the next week.”

 

Since filing for divorce from Katy Perry on December 30, Russell Brand has remained resolutely silent on his Twitter page.

However, his estranged wife Katy Perry came forward over the weekend to thank her fans for their support in the difficult times.

Katy Perry wrote: “I am so grateful for all the love and support I’ve had from people around the world. You guys have made my heart happy again.”

She also pulled out of what was scheduled to be her first public appearance since the split at the People’s Choice Awards, writing her apologies on Twitter.

But new claims have suggested Katy Perry is considering flying into the UK in a bid to resolve things with her former spouse.

A source told Grazia magazine: “Katy was absolutely crushed by Russell’s decision. She’s furious after everything he’s done, but still insists there must be a way to reconcile and try to work things out.

“She told Russell that if he’d agreed to marriage counseling, they wouldn’t be in this mess and tried to persuade him to fly back to the States and meet her.

“She’s now considering jetting to the UK as she’s desperate to see him and talk to him.

“She said she can’t stand that everything has been done over the phone and says she needs to see him before she can truly accept it’s over.”
