Katy Perry shares heartwarming pictures amid the spilt from Orlando Bloom
Katy Perry shared joyful pictures from Australia following her split from Orlando Bloom , giving fans a glimpse into her peaceful post-breakup mood. After her recent split from Orlando Bloom, Katy Perry is keeping things fun and light. On Friday, June 27, the singer posted a happy photo update from her Lifetimes Tour stop in Australia on Instagram. Perry posted images of herself having fun on Rottnest Island in Western Australia along with the caption, "Mood: Quokka," referring to the friendly marsupials that live there. Her latest update comes just days after US Weekly reported that Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have called off their engagement after nearly being together for a decade. Despite the personal change, Perry's post seems to reflect a calm and playful state of mind. In the Instagram photo-dump, Perry looked content and at ease. She picked up a quokka-themed chocolate treat from a nearby grocery store, rode over picturesque trails, and posed next to a quokka. However, a unique picture of her 4-year-old daughter, Daisy Dove, whom she shares with Bloom, was the high point for viewers. In the cute picture, Daisy is seen helping in steering the boat, as she is dressed in a peach coloured cardigan. Although Perry was not in front of the camera at the time, the posted photo offered fans a charming look into her post-divorce motherhood experience. Although the couple has separated, their focus remains on their daughter. Another insider told the above-stated portal, 'They are still very much in touch and coparenting Daisy together. Orlando brought Daisy to meet Katy on tour before heading to the Bezos' wedding. It's not messy between them. They aren't making drastic changes for Daisy's sake.' Perry and Bloom have agreed to prioritize stability and consistency for their children. Bloom also shares son Flynn, 14, with his ex-wife Miranda Kerr. Perry has previously spoken about her relationship journey with Bloom. On the Call Her Daddy podcast in September 2024, she shared, 'We weren't really in it from day one. He was, in a way, because he had just done a time of celibacy, and he had set intentions. I was fresh out of a relationship, and I was just like, 'I can't do this anymore. I need to swim in a different pond.''
