Katy Perry is finding solace in her close friendship with Rihanna as she navigates through her impending divorce from Russell Brand. Rihanna has extended an invitation to Perry to visit her hometown of Barbados for a few days, providing the singer with some much-needed comfort during this difficult time.
According to reports, Katy Perry is relying on her best friend, Rihanna, to help her cope with her recent separation from Russell Brand. Following the confirmation of the divorce, Rihanna invited Katy to spend a few days in Barbados and is arranging a girls-only vacation in Mexico. Russell filed for divorce citing “irreconcilable differences,” but speculation about the split is rife. Some sources claim that Russell wanted to settle down and have children while Katy wanted to party and focus on her career. After hearing the news, Katy called Rihanna, who suggested flying down to Barbados to stay with her and her family. Rule number one of being a good friend: Knowing when not to say “I told you so!” However, Katy seemed to be moving forward as she was spotted laughing and dancing with friends on New Year’s Eve while Russell looked lonely wandering the streets of London.
