I am excited, we’re excited, and happy. It’s probably the longest secret I’ve ever had to keep.
Perry also referenced her first marriage to Russell Brand, noting: “The truth is I have never worn white, because the time before this, 10 years ago, I wore dove grey. So let’s just say it’ll be my first time wearing white.”
