Brand and Katy split after 'she put fame ahead of children'

Image
By Lara Gould and Caroline Graham Last updated at 10:51 PM on 31st December 2011 Sweet music: The pair at last year's Grammy Awards Russell Brand's marriage to Katy Perry collapsed as he became exasperated over her refusal to put her career on hold to start a family, it was revealed yesterday. The star, 36, announced on Friday that the couple's 14-month marriage was over after they spent Christmas apart and were both photographed without their wedding rings. Brand's lawyers filed divorce papers at Los Angeles Superior Court citing 'irreconcilable differences' between the pair who met at the MTV Music Awards in 2009 and were married in India a year later.

By Judith Woods Last updated at 12:01 AM on 1st January 2012 Christine Bleakley hasn't paused for breath since bidding farewell to breakfast TV last month, not least because she's promoting a fitness DVD with her sister Nicola. Plus there's a new primetime show to present and a wedding to plan. Here she tells Judith Woods the truth behind the Daybreak debacle 'I haven't had time to think about the wedding in any detail yet,' says Christine Christine Bleakley ushers me to one side and whispers sotto voce in my ear. 'This isn't about me, I really want it to be about her.'

He revealed: "We climbed into a junk room and re-arranged piping so if you pulled the bottom it would all collapse. We then took a wire connected to the piping and put it through my desk. As a youth ... David Attenborough "I yanked it and there was an explosion. It was a great do." Sir David attended the school during the Second World War when retired staff were drafted in to replace those called up. He said: "Some teachers were in their late 60s and we were a handful. If it was a boring lesson, they had a job keeping us in order." But despite his poor behaviour, David won a scholarship to Cambridge ...
