British comedian Russell Brand joked about his short marriage to pop superstar Katy Perry during a radio broadcast last night (Monday, March 18).

He co-hosted a show on XFM last night, which had musician Noel Gallagher as a guest, and the former Oasis star told Brand he had a wager on how long the marriage would last: "For the record, in the sweepstake I came the closest."

After laughing about the fact that they got divorced just 14-months after the wedding took place in India, Brand added:

"Thanks, nice to know you're all behind me, very supportive, nice to know you're all supporting me. Let me tell you a thing about marriage. Marriage is a bond that can last up to 14 months. This is a sacred 14-month arrangement. Begins on an elephant. Ends in a newspaper."

Brand also admitted that their relationship was troubled from the start, concluding: "That marriage was shaky from the get go."
