Who are Russell Brand’s exes?
COMEDIAN and actor Russell Brand has tied the knot twice.
But who has he been married to and who has he dated? Here’s everything you need to know.
Who has Russell Brand been married to?
Russell Brand married Laura Gallacher, the daughter of golf legend Bernard Gallacher and the sister of TV presenter Kirsty Gallacher, in August 2017.
The pair, who married in an intimate ceremony in Henley-on-Thames, Oxon, share two children together.
The couple welcomed first child Mabel in November 2016 and their second, named Peggy, arrived in July 2018.
In June 2023, Brand confirmed that his wife was pregnant with their third child.
Russell and Laura actually first dated when they were teenagers but reconnected as adults after Russell’s divorce from singer Katy Perry.
British actor Brand and Katy wed in a lavish Indian ceremony in 2010, before splitting the next year.
The former couple divorced after 14 months of marriage.
Katy previously told Vogue that Brand was the one who decided to end their marriage when he sent her a text message on New Year’s Eve 2011, informing her that he planned to file for divorce.
Who has Russell Brand dated?
Prior to tying the knot with his current wife Laura, Brand was known to have dated a string of famous faces.
He has been connected to a number of star-studded women, including Spice Girl star Geri Horner, who he shared a brief fling with.
The pair hooked up after the London 2012 Olympics Closing Ceremony, described by Geri, then 40, as “a whirlwind”.
But their affair reportedly only lasted 13 days, despite the singer taking Russell house-hunting.
A source told The Mirror: “Geri was smitten but things have petered out a tad. He isn’t ready to settle down so soon after coming out of marriage, whereas Geri is probably more ready to have a relationship.
”She wants a pad and spent Saturday dragging Russell around properties near Devon. It probably seemed a little much.”
He has also been previously romantically linked with Jemima Khan – whose father was the late billionaire tycoon Sir James Goldsmith.
Russell Brand has described his love life as “promiscuous” but said he “absolutely refutes” serious allegations made in an upcoming documentary.
