Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom Split After Nearly 10 Years Together
After nearly a decade of highs, lows, and red carpet moments, pop superstar Katy Perry and actor Orlando Bloom have officially called it quits. The couple, who first sparked romance rumors in 2016, have reportedly ended their relationship, according to Us Weekly.
A Look Back at Their Relationship
Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom’s love story began at a Golden Globes afterparty in January 2016. The pair were spotted flirting and dancing, and soon after, they were seen vacationing together in Hawaii. Over the years, their relationship was marked by several breakups and reconciliations, but they always seemed to find their way back to each other—until now.
In 2017, the couple briefly split but rekindled their romance in 2018. They got engaged on Valentine’s Day in 2019, with Bloom proposing with a flower-shaped diamond ring. The couple welcomed their daughter, Daisy Dove Bloom, in August 2020.
