Katy Perry has no intention of dating until her divorce is finalised.

The singer split from British comedian Russell Brand late last year and he has filed papers to end their marriage.

Over the last week there have been rumours Katy's mother and father Mary and Keith Hudson have encouraged her to move on. There was speculation Mary hoped her daughter would begin a romance with American football star Tim Tebow, but it's thought that is untrue.

"Mary told me she never said anything of the sort. I don't think either of Katy's parents have even met Tebow," friend of the family Pastor Paul Endrei told British newspaper The Sunday Mirror.

"There is no way that she will start dating again until her divorce is finalised."

Katy's parents have been spending time with her over the last week as she tries to come to terms with her marriage breakdown.

"Keith and Mary flew from Georgia to Los Angeles earlier this week to be with their daughter. She is doing OK under the circumstances, but this has been a very tough road for her," a friend added.

"Keith and Mary have also been reaching out to Russell and sent him a text telling him he is in their thoughts and that they love him."

Russell has jetted from London back to Los Angeles where he will meet with Katy. It will be the first time the two have come face-to-face since they announced their separation after 14 months of marriage.

The pair are thought to be planning to discuss the terms of their split, although Katy is reported to be hoping they might still reconcile.

"He has agreed to meet her one last time. He wants to sort things out and finalise the divorce," a friend explained to the publication. "Removal trucks have been moving his things out of the house they lived in and into a new place that Russell is renting.

"He needed to be in LA for the Globes [Golden Globe Awards tonight] too, so it was an ideal opportunity to meet. He is determined to move on. But Katy says she is still in love with him and she still has hopes they might get back together."
