Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom Announce Separation After Six Years Together
The couple confirms their split while prioritizing co-parenting their daughter.
Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom, who have been in a relationship since 2016, have officially announced their separation, according to various US media outlets. Having gotten engaged in 2019, the couple shares a four-year-old daughter, and in their joint statement, they revealed their focus has shifted toward co-parenting.
The statement addressed the "abundance of recent interest and conversation" regarding their relationship, indicating that the couple will continue to present a united front for their child. They emphasized that their priority remains to raise their daughter with love, stability, and mutual respect.
Perry, 40, and Bloom, 48, had briefly split in 2017 but reconciled shortly after. Their engagement was a highlight in their relationship, and Perry's pregnancy announcement in her music video for "Never Worn White" in 2020 added to the couple’s joyous moments. Their daughter, Daisy Dove, was welcomed later that year, with Unicef announcing the happy news.
However, recent events have posed challenges for Perry. Following the release of her latest album, "143," and its lead single "Woman's World," which did not perform as well as expected, the singer has faced scrutiny. Concurrently, her ongoing tour has seen a decline in ticket sales compared to earlier years. Additionally, Perry faced public backlash after a space trip with other female celebrities in April, which left her feeling "battered and bruised."
As they navigate this new chapter, Perry and Bloom both come with previous marital experiences—Perry was married to Russell Brand, while Bloom shares a son, Flynn, with ex-wife Miranda Kerr. Both renowned in their respective fields, Perry for hits like "I Kissed A Girl," "Roar," and "Firework," and Bloom for iconic roles in franchises such as "Pirates Of The Caribbean" and "The Lord of the Rings," they continue to maintain a collaborative relationship for their daughter's well-being.
