Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have officially ended their nine-year relationship, marking the close of a significant chapter in their lives. The news was confirmed on July 3, 2025, through a joint statement released by their publicists, who emphasized that the couple’s primary focus now is co-parenting their daughter, Daisy Dove Bloom, who will turn five later this year. Despite going their separate ways romantically, Perry and Bloom are reportedly committed to maintaining a unified front as parents and continue to prioritize their child’s emotional stability and well-being.
The breakup, while only recently confirmed, is said to have occurred much earlier in the year than previously believed. Contrary to earlier rumors linking the split to Bloom’s recent spaceflight experience, sources told Us Weekly that the separation had already been in motion for several months. The couple had been “shifting their relationship” for some time, slowly transitioning from romantic partners to co-parents. The statement assured fans and followers that although their engagement has ended and their wedding plans have been shelved, the two remain amicable and deeply respectful of one another.
The relationship, which began in January 2016, had its share of ups and downs, including a breakup in 2017 and a reconciliation the following year. Their engagement on Valentine’s Day 2019 and the birth of their daughter in 2020 were milestones that many believed cemented their bond. But behind the scenes, the relationship appears to have quietly evolved, with both stars now accepting that their romantic journey has reached its natural end.
While Bloom attended Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’s high-profile wedding solo, Perry was notably absent, fueling speculation even before the public announcement. Reports that Bloom was seen chatting with Leonardo DiCaprio’s girlfriend Vittoria Ceretti and getting close to a mystery woman at the wedding further fanned rumors of a rift. Perry, on the other hand, sparked concern among fans after she was seen emotional during the Australian leg of her Lifetimes tour. She later returned home cradling Daisy in her arms, skipping the lavish wedding celebration entirely.
This split carries added emotional weight for Perry, who has spoken in the past about the personal toll of her previous marriage to comedian Russell Brand. Sources close to the singer say she had hoped to avoid another heartbreak of that magnitude. Still, both she and Bloom appear to be handling the separation with grace, determined to remain close as co-parents and maintain a stable environment for their daughter.
Their nearly decade-long relationship—marked by public appearances, private struggles, and joyful milestones—may have ended, but it’s clear that mutual care and parenting unity remain intact. While it’s a bittersweet end to one of Hollywood’s more enduring modern love stories, the shared commitment to Daisy Dove is, according to both reps, what will keep Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom connected in the years to come.
