NEED TO KNOW
- Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom reportedly end their nearly decade-long relationship.
- Insiders say the breakup was mutual but emotionally explosive, like a Firework.
- Sources claim the final straw may have been Perry’s refusal to watch another Orlando sword fight film.
Love Story Reaches Its Final Chorus
After years of on-again, off-again tabloid headlines and red carpet coordination, Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have reportedly ended their engagement. According to People magazine, the pop icon and the “Lord of the Rings” actor have “gone their separate ways” after nearly a decade together. Neither of their reps commented, likely because they’re still scrolling through breakup memes for emotional support.
From Fireworks to Fizzle
The pair first linked up in 2016 after a reported argument over an In-N-Out burger at a Golden Globes party. They got engaged in 2019 on Valentine’s Day, complete with a helicopter and questionable floral choices. They welcomed a daughter, Daisy Dove, in 2020, and often gushed about how therapy helped them grow. Apparently, even therapy has limits when one partner insists on quoting Elvish during arguments.
Breakup Heard Around Beverly Hills
Perry previously said their relationship helped them “become better humans” for their daughter. Sources now say they’re committed to co-parenting, with a custody agreement that splits weekends, holidays, and backstage passes. While no official reason was given, many believe Bloom’s continued devotion to Renaissance fairs may have tested even Perry’s famously broad fashion tolerance.
Fans React with Shock and Shrug
Social media exploded, as it always does. Some fans mourned the end of a union they dubbed “Klandoo,” while others questioned why Bloom always looks like he just solved a murder. Meanwhile, Russell Brand has yet to weigh in, but insiders say he’s already drafted a poem and two guided meditations about it.
