American singer Katy Perry is reportedly considering an autobiography and a documentary series about her marriage to British comedian Russell Brand. The projects are reportedly being considered after Brand's trial, at which a London jury found him guilty on four of seven charges, according to the Mail on Sunday.

Katy Perry, the 42-year-old American singer, is reportedly in discussions with people close to her about recounting her marriage to Russell Brand in an autobiography and a documentary series. Several proposals are said to have been considered after years of the artist remaining discreet about this period, according to the Mail on Sunday.

Katy Perry's team is said to have already approached Netflix and Hulu about a potential audiovisual project. The singer is said to have waited until the end of Russell Brand's trial, the 51-year-old British comedian, before considering speaking publicly about their relationship, according to a Hollywood source cited by the newspaper.

Russell Brand was found guilty on Thursday of four of seven charges by a jury at Southwark Crown Court in London, including rape and sexual assaults, and acquitted on three other counts. He has yet to be sentenced. Katy Perry, who met Russell Brand in 2009 before they married in India in 2010 and divorced in 2012, did not testify in the case.

The potential preparation of the book and documentary comes after the verdict that led to the sentencing of Russell Brand to ten and a half years in prison for rape.
