Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom might have had total sparks, but the couple has called it quits after nearly 10 years together. My S.O. will probably tell you that I randomly belt out, "Baby you're a firework" several times a day because I can't get enough of the way Katy Perry actively encourages people to be their full selves. It's something she strives to do in her career and personal life as evidenced by her 9-year public relationship with the actor Orlando Bloom. Yes, the same man who deliciously played Legolas in The Lord of the Rings and Will Turner in The Pirates of the Caribbean.
But in 2025, these two called off their relationship, and it just proves how dedicated they are to going after the lives they want. (And we're wishing them the best!).

She chatted with about his contributions, but made it known her family doesn't obsess over her music like fans."They've had enough of me. I mean, they're fine, but like...my family, they're telling me to move or take the trash out," she said.
Flynn's the only one who truly offers tangible feedback. She said, "He's got good taste" and "loves this song called 'All the Love,'" on 143. Out of everything Katy's written, it's one of her "favorite songs."

It's connected me with the heart of America, but I feel like I need to go out and feel that pulse to my own beat."
Orlando also revealed to that things can be challenging for the couple. He said, "Her pool is not a pool that I necessarily understand, and I think my pool is not a pool that she necessarily understands. Sometimes things are really, really, really, challenging. I won't lie. We definitely battle with our emotions and creativity."
Appearing on Chelsea Handler's podcast , Katy got real about her and Orlando attending therapy together.

We love a couple who attends therapy together!
