Katy Perry appears to have had the last laugh on ex-husband Russell Brand after he started their divorce by text – scoring a £180million payday as he faces serious allegations about his behaviour with women.

Perry, 38, sold her popular back catalogue to Litmus Music on Monday, landing a fortune for her stakes in master recordings and publishing rights on five of her albums.

The extraordinary windfall could not be in starker contrast to the man she once shared her life with, whose own empire appears to be crumbling.

Brand has been accused of a series of lurid allegations from four women including rape and sexual assault.

He vehemently denies the claims, which were first disclosed by Channel 4’s Dispatches and The Sunday Times.

Perry and Brand’s romance came something of a surprise when it first became public 14 years ago

Brand and Perry’s marriage problems were captured in a film of her life and showed her struggling with being apart from him

In a now notorious social media incident Brand posted an unflattering picture of Perry on his Twitter page that showed her without a scrap of make-up

Perry has not made any comment on the allegations facing her former husband, but has continued to post unrelated posts on her social media.
