"Russell Brand has insisted that he still feels &amp;quot;compassion and warmth&amp;quot; for ex-wife Katy Perry, despite dismissing their divorce as an &amp;quot;administrative finality&amp;quot;. The comedian made the remarks when asked by Piers Morgan how it felt to be a single man after his marriage to Perry officially came to an end this week.   &amp;quot;I think what happened at the weekend was an administrative finality, so I don&amp;#039;t think that it makes very much difference,&amp;quot; he told CNN&amp;#039;s Piers Morgan Tonight yesterday (July 17).  &amp;quot;Of course I still feel great feeling of compassion and warmth for Katy, but I&amp;#039;m very happy with my life. My life is a simple life... I&amp;#039;m like a farmer whose product is a TV show instead of tomatoes.&amp;quot; Brand filed for divorce from Perry in December after just 14 months of marriage, citing &amp;quot;irreconcilable differences&amp;quot;. Perry has since been romantically linked to Florence + the Machine guitarist Rob Ackroyd. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
