Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom split after nearly a decade together

Sources close to the couple revealed that the breakup has been a long time coming. Tensions have apparently been bubbling beneath the surface for months, especially since Perry embarked on her Lifetimes tour earlier this year. The physical distance only magnified their emotional drift, with the two quietly living apart since the tour began.

One insider claimed that while Katy is understandably heartbroken, she is relieved not to have to experience another painful divorce. Her 2012 split from Russell Brand remains one of the darkest chapters in her life, and this time, she is determined to keep things as peaceful as possible, especially for their 4-year-old daughter, Daisy Dove.

Living apart, growing apart

The duo had been sharing their primary home in Montecito, California, but were also planning to convert Perry¡¯s Westcott Estate into their main family nest. Those plans have now been shelved, and Perry has been renting out the estate while she tours.

No wedding bells, just a goodbye

Despite being engaged since Valentine¡¯s Day 2019, the couple never managed to set a wedding date. Sources say Bloom had grown tired of the delays, and the wedding plans eventually fizzled out completely.

The couple¡¯s journey began back in 2016 at the Golden Globes and was filled with high-profile reunions, Instagram declarations, and even the arrival of baby Daisy in 2020. But now, it seems, that story has reached its final chapter, one written with mutual respect, but also quiet heartbreak.
