Katy Perry’s children will take priority over her music career when she becomes a mother.

The pop star wants to focus on her family when she and husband Russell Brand – who she wed in India in October – decide to have a baby and she insists she will fit her career around her responsibilities as a parent

She said: “My singing is really important to me, but when children come along they’ll be my main focus. I’d never put my career in front of my babies – it’d be a case of fitting jobs around them.”

Although the 26-year-old singer has been thinking about having a baby, she insists it could be years before she and her comedic spouse start a family, though she admits she would like more than one child.

She added: “Look, any couple in a serious relationship has that talk about babies, but we haven’t decided when. Russell wants lots of children and I think there’s something amazing about tons of kids running around. We probably won’t have the talk again for a few years – it’s important to enjoy each other before having babies.”
