Looks like Russell Brand has found a new ladylove. 

During his Conversation with HuffPostUK on Monday evening, the 38-year-old British star happily admitted to a packed crowd that he is indeed dating someone, although he did not reveal the identity of his special gal.

"I'm in a relationship at the moment," Katy Perry's former hubby confessed.

And, as he was leaving, Brand added as an afterthought, "I'm off to see my girlfriend."

Brand most recently dated Hugh Grant's ex-Jemima Khan, but confirmed that he was single just 15 days after boasting that he was "eschewing all others" to be with the European editor-at-large of Vanity Fair.

Prior to Khan, the comedian was romantically linked to Nicola Schuller, with whom he was seen making out at a café in Los Angeles over the summer.

And in June, Brand even said he would like to say "I Do" again, despite his failed marriage to the "Roar" singer (Katy and Russell initially filed for divorce a mere 14 months after their 2010 wedding).

In addition to his dating life, the radio host also addressed whether he would call himself a misogynist, and, in signature Brand style he spoke about the issue in a candid fashion.

"I don't think I'm sexist," he explained to the audience. "But I remember my grandmother, the loveliest person I‘ve ever known, but she was racist, but I don't think she knew."

He continued: "I don't know if I have some cultural hangover, I know that I have a great love of proletariat linguistics, like 'darling' and 'bird', so if women think I'm sexist they're in a better position to judge than I am, so I'll work on that."
