Typically, all human beings go through SOMETHING difficult in their lives. Sometimes it can affect them personally; other times, their personal lives stay in tact and, instead, it affects them professionally.

Example: In November, Katy went on a world tour creating a greater conflict among her schedule and Russell’s professional schedule.

Russell also wanted children, and Katy was not ready to have any.

Allegedly, Russell had a difficult time with Katy’s sudden rise in popularity (world tour). When they met and initially started dating, they were both equally well-known. However, soon, Katy surpassed him.

Russell Brand allegedly told Katy he wanted a divorce via one single text message while she was on tour. He never spoke to her again after that text.
