In a classy move, comedian actor Russell Brand has declined to accept US$22 million from ex-wife and pop superstar Katy Perry, stating that he would like their split to be as amicable as possible.
The pair famously declared when they got hitched that they would not sign a prenuptial agreement, which meant that under California law, Brand could stand to gain fifty percent of his California Gurl‘s marital assets and earnings.
The estranged couple, who will finalize their divorce in late June, had a high-profile 14 month marriage before Brand filed for a separation last December, citing Perry’s busy touring schedule, among other “irreconciliable differences”.
