Early Life of Russell Peter:

Russell Dominic Peters was born in Toronto on September 29, 1970. Peters grew up in an Anglo-Indian Catholic family with an older brother, Clayton, who would eventually manage him. His father is from Bombay. Peters was teased as a child for his race. His father advised him to use words to defend himself, and he learnt to box to gain confidence.

Peters later found he had undiagnosed ADHD for most of his high school years. Poor grades led to his expulsion from high school in tenth grade. He later changed schools and graduated in 1989. Sheridan College rejected him, so he became a DJ for the school’s radio station. “DJ Russell” would go on to become one of Toronto’s most popular Hip-Hop DJs in the 1990s.

About Career:

Fresh out of high school, Russell Peters performed his first standup routine as a 19-year-old at Yuk-Yuk’s Comedy Club. In a chance 1992 meeting, Peters met his idol – George Carlin. The veteran comedian told Peters to perform whenever he could in order to hone his craft. The advice struck a chord with Peters, and he spent the next few years performing throughout Canada – often for little or no pay.

Russell Peters caused quite a stir when he appeared on CBC’s Comics! His standup routine involved racial stereotyping of both black and Indian Canadians, and CBC received death threats as a result. Nevertheless, the incident proved to be great publicity for the young Peters, and he continued to perform controversial routines for the rest of his career. The routine earned Peters a Gemini Award, and he followed up with tours throughout the United Kingdom.

Russell had proposed to Monica previously in an airport. About 20 people attended the wedding, including an Elvis impersonator. Soon after the wedding, the comedian informed The Canadian Press that his wife Monica was expecting a child, jokingly stating: “Did I marry her because she was a jerk?” That, I’d argue, hastened things.”

Earlier that day, on July 11, 2010, Russell came to Twitter to inform his fans of his engagement. Russell and Monica married in Las Vegas just a few months after their engagement. The newlywed pair remained together until they noticed their differences. They split in 2012 with no resentment.

Russell stated in a June 2012 interview with Canadian Press that the divorce was amicable. He stated: “It was truly a good breakup.” There were no resentments.” He continued, saying: “We just realized we jumped in and didn’t know each other, and once we did, we were like, ‘Hmm, I don’t believe this is going to work out for the rest of our lives.'” And I didn’t want to wait till my kid was older and had become accustomed to seeing us together before messing with her mind.”

Russell also stated: “I said, ‘We should probably do it now before the baby understands anything because then all the baby knows is mommy and daddy apart, but she knows that when mommy and daddy see each other, there’s no hatred and that, ‘Daddy loves you and mommy loves you, and that’s the bottom line.”

They ultimately discovered that there was no love between them to sustain their marriage.

Russell and Monica chose to divorce because they realized that having a child together wasn’t a compelling reason to stay married, so they divorced amicably.

In an interview with gulfnews.com in March 2012, the comedian revealed a humorous insight regarding his divorce.

“I’m spending all the money I saved for the wedding on the divorce,” she says.
