Katy Perry Gets Tearful as Orlando Bloom Moves On

Katy Perry has been performing while navigating heartbreak on her world tour after her reported split from long-time partner Orlando Bloom.

The 40-year-old “Firework” singer became emotional during her final show in Australia on Monday, 30 June, visibly tearful as she thanked fans: “Thank you Australia for always being there for me.”

The breakup, said to have been “a long time coming,” ends nearly a decade of ups and downs between the couple, who got engaged in 2019 and share a four-year-old daughter, Daisy Dove. Insiders told an international publication that the separation is amicable, with no hostility between the two.

Fans have drawn comparisons to Perry’s 2011 split from ex-husband Russell Brand, which also occurred while she was touring. Bloom, meanwhile, attended Jeff Bezos’ recent lavish wedding in Venice alone and has posted cryptic Instagram posts featuring quotes about fresh starts and bravery.

The “Pirates of the Caribbean” actor was spotted partying with A-listers like Leonardo DiCaprio and Sydney Sweeney, while Perry kept to focusing on her tour. A source recently told a separate news outlet that tensions between the two had been mounting, partly due to the lukewarm response to Perry’s latest album.

Despite the heartache, Perry has remained committed to her tour, much to the admiration of her fans.
