Reports are circulating that Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom's relationship is facing significant challenges, with some sources suggesting that the couple is on the brink of ending their engagement. The couple, who have been together for nearly a decade and engaged since 2019, share a daughter, Daisy Dove, born in 2020.
Several factors appear to be contributing to the strain. Perry's recent professional endeavors, including her new album "143" and the "Lifetimes" tour, have reportedly caused tension. Sources indicate that the underwhelming reception of her album and mixed reviews of her tour have left Perry feeling "deeply frustrated" and stressed. This stress has, in turn, impacted her relationship with Bloom. One source told People Magazine that Bloom was understanding, but it did cause some tension.
Adding to the strain, Bloom reportedly "did not approve" of Perry's recent all-female trip to space on Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin spacecraft. This decision seemingly heightened the tension between them. He apparently felt that his opinion wasn't being taken seriously.
Adding fuel to the fire, Orlando Bloom was spotted alone at the "Deep Cover" premiere during the 2025 Tribeca Festival in New York City on June 10th, further igniting the rumors.
Adding to the speculation, Perry made comments while introducing her breakup song "I'm Still Breathing" during a recent performance in Sydney, implying its significance and further fueling rumours of their relationship troubles.
Despite these challenges, some reports suggest that Perry and Bloom are trying to work things out. An insider told the Daily Mail that while rumors of a rough patch are true, it's "not at the point of no return." The source added, "They know they must fix things, and they both want to figure it out. They haven't been able to sit down and work on some of their issues. A breakup isn't imminent, but they both know that they should focus on their relationship before it does become too late.” It's true they're spending time apart. Their friends don't know if they are permanently split.” Meanwhile, an insider previously told the outlet that Orlando keeps his issues with Katy “close to the vest,” and that “Katy has been very busy working, and they are apart often.
However, other sources paint a less optimistic picture. A source told Page Six that "it's over" between the couple and that they are waiting until Perry's tour concludes in December before making an official announcement. According to this source, the couple is just waiting for Perry to wrap up her tour in December to make their split official. This wouldn't be the first time the couple have parted ways as they broke up in 2017 before getting back together in 2018.
Neither Perry nor Bloom have publicly addressed the rumors. Given their history, which includes a previous split in 2017, it remains to be seen whether they can overcome their current challenges or if they are, indeed, "pretty much done." For now, fans can only speculate and await further developments.
