Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom may be putting on a united front in Australia, but behind the scenes, things are reportedly far from perfect.
In fact, the A-list pair has been keeping a secret for months – they’ve been separated!
A Nine-Year Relationship on the Rocks
Katy Perry confided in friends in January that her nine-year relationship with Orlando Bloom was as good as over.
The couple, who share four-year-old daughter Daisy, have been trying to save their romance, but it seems things just aren’t working out.
A Busy Schedule and Growing Apart
The US pop star, 40, has taken off her engagement ring, a clear sign that things are rocky.
Bloom, 48, is set to attend Jeff Bezos’s wedding to Lauren Sanchez in Italy this week alone, while Perry remains in Australia for her tour.
A Difficult Year for the Couple
A source close to the couple revealed that they’ve barely spent any time together this year, with Perry on tour and Bloom working on his upcoming film in Dublin.
“They wanted to wait until the tour was over before they made their split official, although Katy has grown tired of the situation.”
A Relationship on Shaky Ground
The couple started dating in 2016 and got engaged three years later, but reportedly had difficult conversations about their future over Christmas and in January.
Despite their efforts, they struggled to make a firm decision.
A Public Silence
Reps for the couple refused to comment on their separation, and neither publicly acknowledged each other on social media on Valentine’s Day – the sixth anniversary of their engagement.
Their last public appearance was at the Vanity Fair Oscars bash in March.
A Cryptic Message on Stage
Recently, Perry hinted on stage in Sydney that all was not well behind the scenes, saying, “This song is about a break-up, and this Tim Tam saved me. Thank you.”
The insider revealed that “everyone thought that they were tighter than tight.”
