It was only in January that we heard the news hit of Katy Perry and Russell Brand's split but, five months on, Katy appears to have found a hot new man.
According to a source speaking to more! magazine, Katy Perry has "marked out her territory" with Florence + The Machine guitarist Robert Ackroyd.
The I Kissed A Girl singer is said to be smitten with the musician, so much so that she is apparently keen to spend time with him, even if that means travelling to the UK and spending more of her time there.
"I think Katy's marked out her territory with Rob. It's clear she's really into him, and wants to join him when the band returns to the UK next month. She must know that if Rob gets home and she's not there with him, other things might happen," the source said.
"She's willing to spend as much time in the UK as she can. Rob's a proper British lad who loves going down the pub and watching football. He's not Hollywood at all. That's why Katy likes him so much. I'm sure she learnt a lot from trying and failing to make a long-distance relationship work with Russell," the insider added.
Could Katy have found love again, or is this just a high-profile rebound? Regardless of how things go with her new man, if reports are to be believed she could always give her marriage to British comic Russell Brand another go. Russell has apparently been sending Katy emails saying he gave up on their marriage too soon.
This may be too little, too late by the looks of thigs, Russell!
