The singer and actor got engaged in February 2019
MANILA, Philippines – American pop star Katy Perry and Lord of the Rings actor Orlando Bloom have officially ended their relationship after nine years together, six of which were spent engaged.
The split has been confirmed by multiple reports, though neither Perry — who is currently on tour — nor Bloom has released an official public statement as of writing. They are parents to Daisy Dove, their four-year-old daughter.
According to US Weekly, a source close to the couple revealed that the breakup didn’t come as a surprise, describing it as the result of “growing strain in the relationship over recent months.”
A source told PEOPLE that “the split is amicable,” and that “they reached a point where they felt there was no path back to a healthy relationship, and it’s best for them to live separate lives.”
The pair has been candid about the highs and lows of their relationship, including a brief separation in February 2017. In April 2024, Bloom appeared on Today with Hoda & Jenna and shared that they were making a “daily” choice to stay committed to each other.
The pair first met during an afterparty of the Golden Globe Awards in January 2016. Their relationship was subtly confirmed months later when Perry posted a photo of them together during a trip in France in May 2016.
They officially confirmed their relationship in 2018, and the Pirates of the Caribbean actor knelt on one knee on Valentine’s Day in 2019.
They welcomed their daughter in August 2020. – with reports by Blaise Rellata/Rappler.com
