Russell Brand "Katy Perry Is Lovely"

Russell Brand is so happy in his current relationship with Katy Perry - that he's willing to give up his reputation as a womaniser.

The 34-year-old has been dating Perry, 25, since September, and admits that he now feels ready to settle down and have children - having grown unsatisfied with his previous lifestyle.

"Katy's lovely. I am living in a different way at the moment," he told the Sunday Times.

"Regardless of what happens in my current situation, I am unlikely to be satisfied with calamitous promiscuity of the preceding five or six years."

"I am ready for children actually. It's been seven years since I took drugs. I've made a film. I don't have to fight so much. I've grown weary of the carousel."
