Katy Perry‘s marriage to Russell Brand was reportedly blocked from being mentioned in the prosecution’s opening arguments in his rape and sexual assault trial following objections from the comedian’s legal team.

Brand, 51, was found guilty of one count of rape and three counts of sexual assault at London’s Southwark Crown Court on Nov. 5, following a four-week trial. He was acquitted of three other charges. The comedian, who denied all allegations of non-consensual sexual activity, is scheduled to be sentenced on Nov. 9.
