I always wondered what kind of a woman would “tame” Russell Brand, and she is exactly as I imagined; lovely, gentle, smart, kind and loving. And very patient😉☺️❣️

[@bbcactus3860]

Don't think that is what happened. He went on a journey to find his inner peace. When she came into his life again, he was a different person. Healed and able to accept and give love non-self destructively. To love others you have to first love yourself

[@Bcsmith333]

It would be cute if they told their origin story using shadow puppets!

[@clambion]

Laura was in art college when her sister Kirsty (who's a tv presenter) introduced them, in 2006 or 2007. they dated and then broke up, if I remember correctly from Wendy William's interview with Russell, he wasn't ready to settle down yet. they bumped into each other in London in 2015, she said on a podcast, I think. when they got back together they knew pretty much right away that they would get married & have kids, think he mentioned that part on 'an evening with Russell Brand' (how to academy video).
