Katy Perry joy for ex-hubby Russell Brand's 10 years off drugs

KATY PERRY has been getting into the Christmas spirit early this year.

Despite their messy divorce, the singer has got in touch with ex-husband RUSSELL BRAND to congratulate him on being ten years sober.

The comic celebrated the anniversary earlier this week and tweeted: Ten years clean... Thanks for all your messages of love... Anyone can get clean, one day at a time.

Katy decided to send an email to the comic while hes on tour in New Zealand.

A source said: Although theyve broken up, Katy knows how important this milestone is for Russell.

She wanted to let him know that she was thinking of him and that she was still proud of what he has achieved.

She also wanted to drop him the email to wish him a happy 2013 and to let him know that her heart was finally healing.

And the postage on a Christmas card to New Zealand wouldve cost a fair whack.
