Katy Perry has happily moved on since her split from ex-husband Russell Brand in 2011, which happened just 14 months after they tied the knot.
But sources close to the pop star, 38, have claimed that she still feels haunted by their marriage following the allegations of sexual assault and rape made against him.
"This is an absolute nightmare for everyone and Katy feels sick to her stomach," a source tells new. "She can't believe she was married to someone accused of such horrible things. She fears that marrying Russell was the worst decision she ever made.
"Katy has moved on with her life, but her first marriage might end up haunting her to the grave.
You can imagine how upsetting this has been for her." K Comedian and actor Russell has been accused of rape, sexual assault and emotional abuse by four women. In a joint investigation by The Sunday Times and Channel 4's Dispatches, it was claimed the alleged incidents took place at the height of his fame between 2006 and 2013.
Russell, 48, who has been married to Laura Gallacher, 36, since 2017, has vehemently denied the allegations and insists all his relationships were "absolutely always consensual".
The BBC, where Russell worked as a radio presenter between 2006 and 2008, said it was "urgently looking into the issues raised" by the allegations.
Channel 4, where he was a presenter, has announced an internal investigation.
