Pop superstar Katy Perry and actor Orlando Bloom have officially announced their split, marking the end of their romantic relationship after six years. The couple, who became engaged on Valentine's Day in 2019, have a four-year-old daughter together.
In a joint statement to the media, their representatives indicated that the two have been adjusting their relationship dynamics in recent months to prioritize their roles as co-parents. They expressed their commitment to raising their daughter with love, stability, and mutual respect, despite the change in their partnership.
The announcement comes amid significant media interest in their relationship status and follows a challenging year for Perry, whose latest album was not as successful as expected. The singer is currently touring, although ticket sales have reportedly slowed compared to earlier in her career.
This split follows a brief separation in 2017 before the pair rekindled their romance. Perry previously revealed her pregnancy in the music video for "Never Worn White," and their daughter, Daisy Dove, was born later that year, with Unicef sharing the news.
Both Perry and Bloom are goodwill ambassadors for Unicef, focusing on children's welfare. Apart from their family commitments, the two face their own personal challenges, with Perry receiving backlash after a recent space trip and reflecting on feeling "battered and bruised."
The couple's charming history includes Perry's rise to fame with hits like "I Kissed A Girl" and "Firework," while Bloom is known for his roles in major franchises like Pirates of the Caribbean and The Lord of the Rings.
