Russell Brand is wide awake when it comes to looking back at his romance with Katy Perry.
The Get Him to the Greek star recently shared a glimpse into his marriage with the American Idol host from 2010 to 2012, detailing both the ups and downs.
“Some aspects of it were amazing—she’s an amazing person,” Brand shared during his appearance on the Running Wild With Bear Grylls: The Challenge Aug. 6. “It was kind of incredible to live for a moment in that eye of a cyclone type aspect of fame.”
And although there were fireworks between the couple, that moment in time took a toll on their union.
“Aside from my feelings of affection for Katy, it’s a time that I remember as being a little bit chaotic and a bit, for me, I’ll speak for myself, a little disconnected,” he added. “Life humbles us and teaches us ad the journey is not always easy.”
Meanwhile, Perry has also noted their marriage was far from a teenage dream.
