Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom Call Off Engagement, Break Up After Nine Years
Briefly

Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have called off their engagement after nearly a decade of on-and-off dating. Reports confirmed that Bloom attended a wedding as a 'single man,' leading to the release of details about their split. Insiders indicated that the breakup is amicable, with Perry, although upset, relieved to avoid another divorce. The couple was originally engaged on Valentine's Day in 2019 and share a four-year-old daughter, but it seems they decided to part ways after waiting for Perry's upcoming tour.
Katy and Orlando have split but are amicable. It's not contentious at the moment. Katy is of course upset but is relieved to not have to go through another divorce, as that was the worst time in her life.
Perry and Bloom were first romantically linked in 2016 after being seen at multiple Golden Globes afterparties. They briefly split in 2017 before reuniting a year later.
The couple got engaged on Valentine's Day in 2019, and Perry announced they were expecting a child in her "Never Worn White" music video just over a year later. Their now four-year-old daughter, Daisy Dove, was born in August 2020.
It had been previously reported by Page Six that the couple was waiting until Perry's "Lifetimes Tour" wrapped up in early December "before they split." It now appears Perry will kick off the next US leg of her tour as a single woman next month.
