Russell Brand heads to LA for 'divorce showdown' with Katy Perry

Russell Brand has flown out to the US to meet with estranged wife Katy Perry.

The comedian, who confirmed he's filing for divorce at the end of December, has reportedly been locked in a 'divorce showdown' with Katy in a hotel room.

'Katy wants a reconciliation,' a source claims in Metro.

'She has told Russell she's willing to do anything to make the marriage work.'

But Russell, 36, has already moved his belongings out of the couple's Hollywood home and is said to have found a £1.2m hill-top bachelor pad, complete with swimming pool and spa.

Things reportedly turned sour between Katy, 27, and Russell when the singer became uncomfortable with his closeness to his Rock Of Ages co-star, Julianne Hough, 23.

'Julianne gave him advice about happiness and self-preservation,' a friend tells us.

'But then she was forever "checking in" to make sure he was doing OK, which Katy saw as her job.

'Katy asked him to cool the friendship, but he refused.'
