Orlando Bloom snapped cosying up to mystery woman days after Katy Perry split
Lord of the Rings actor Orlando Bloom has been seen with a mystery woman as he left the first party ahead of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's lavish wedding celebrations
Orlando Bloom has been mingling away as he celebrates Jeff Bezos' upcoming wedding fresh from his reported split from fiancée Katy Perry. The actor, 48, is said to be "flying solo" at the high-profile event in Venice as the Amazon boss and soon-to-be wife Lauren Sanchez's wedding kicks off.
In what could be a tough time for Orlando in the romantic Italian city, it seems he has been keeping his spirits high as he headed to a lavish pre-wedding bash. He was seen leaving the exclusive do with women and other guests before departing on a water taxi.
While inside the vehicle, he was seen getting close and chatty with one mystery woman. Orlando looked smart in a beige trouser and blazer combo over a loosely buttoned white shirt as he managed to keep a smile on his face.
His appearance comes just hours after reports he has split from pop star Katy, 40, after nine years together. They have faced speculation over their relationship in recent weeks, with reports of "make or break talks".
The pair, who share four-year-old daughter Daisy, have not confirmed the split – but Orlando's solo appearance at Bezos' nuptials are a big hint. Earlier on his trip to Venice without Katy, Orlando was spotted flashing a peace sign to onlookers as he hopped on a boat.
Jeff and Lauren's three-day wedding extravaganza kicked off on Thursday with guests to include Mick Jagger, Kim Kardashian and Leonardo DiCaprio. Orlando's solo appearance comes following reports that he is "now a single man."
A source told TMZ:"He's the life of the party and he's gonna hit the dance floor hard!" Speaking to US Weekly, another source said: "Katy and Orlando have split but are amicable."
They added that the split is "not contentious" at the moment and said that Katy - who had been onboard Bezos' Blue Origin space flight in April - is "upset". The source said: "Katy is of course upset but is relieved to not have to go through another divorce, as that was the worst time in her life."
It was further claimed by the source that the split was "a long time coming," with things said to have been "tense" between them for months.
The guest list for the glitzy wedding is rumoured to include stars like Oprah Winfrey, Bill Gates, Salma Hayek Pinault, Sir Elton John, and Lady Gaga. Sánchez, meanwhile, is said to be organising her nuptials like "every other bride" and teased on the Today show last year: "I have to say, I do have a Pinterest."
However, the couple's extravagant wedding plans have reportedly been derailed as local protestors disrupted the city. They have been compelled to change their wedding venue after residents of threatened to fill the historic canals with inflatable crocodiles.
It has been reported that guests were originally set to celebrate at the 16th-century Scuola Grande della Misericordia. Now, the 61-year-old billionaire is now thought to have opted for the Arsenale, which is considered a more secure location away from the city centre, instead.

Orlando Bloom embraces bachelor lifestyle in pyjamas for Jeff Bezos wedding
Orlando Bloom appeared to have put his recent split with Katy Perry behind him as he donned an eye-catching outfit when attending the wedding of Amazon boss Jeff Bezos Orlando Bloom appeared care-free as he jetted off to Venice to enjoy the wedding of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez. But it was only a few days ago that it was confirmed the 48-year old actor had split with Katy Perry following their nine year relationship. The father of one was pictured in a black and white polka-dot matching pyjama set as he casually lounged back on a speed boat that was taking him along the Venice canal. With the top unbuttoned, Orlando completed his look with a black vest top teamed with jewellery around his neck. Earlier that day, the actor famed for his role in Pirates of the Caribbean, was seen taking a leisurely stroll with Tom Brady and actress Sydney Sweeney. The day before Orlando attended the nuptials of Jeff and Lauren on his own as Katy fulfilled her tour commitments. And according to US Weekly, a source close to the pair, who share a daughter together, said the couple split amicably. The source told the publication: "Katy and Orlando have split but are amicable. It's not contentious at the moment. Katy is of course upset but is relieved to not have to go through another divorce, as that was the worst time in her life." The source continued that the end of their nine year relationship had been a long time coming as the pair were virtually living separate lives since the singer has been on tour. The insider explained their relationship had been "tense for months" and they've been "living apart since Katy has been on tour." The couple first started dating back in 2016 while at the Golden Globes but a year later they split. At the time a joint statement was released that read: "Before rumors or falsifications get out of hand, we can confirm that Orlando and Katy are taking respectful, loving space at this time." But Katy's tweet was far more direct as she wrote at the same time: "HOW BOUT A NEW WAY OF THINKING FOR 201? U can still b friends & love ur former partners! No one's a victim or a villain, get a life y'all!" By 2018, the couple had reconciled and Orlando popped the question with a diamond a ruby engagement ring. The pair decided to share the news with fans by posting a zoomed in picture of themselves with the ring firmly in shot.

£30 digital camera with 'sharp detail & colours' perfect for capturing top TRNSMT moments
A digital camera will allow you to snap all your favourite festival moments without wasting your phone's battery life. With Glastonbury underway and plenty of festivals just around the corner, many of us will be wanting to take a few snaps of our favourite artists and moments with pals throughout the event. While a smartphone can be handy in these moments, sometimes the picture quality won't be the best - especially from a distance. On top of this, the fear of your smartphone dying can stop some people from capturing memories that they can look back fondly on. And while many people may be primed with a portable charger to keep their phone topped up throughout the day, another solution for this dilemma is to buy a digital camera. While small in size, so they can easily fit into a bag or pocket, these cameras can provide users with incredible photos with vibrant colours and sharp details, making them a perfect purchase for any snap-happy music fans heading to TRNSMT next month. Ahead of its Prime Day event, Amazon has slashed the price of the VAHOIALD Digital Camera down from £40 to £29.99 in a limited time deal. Available in four colours, shoppers can choose between black, green, pink and purple. However, shoppers should note this camera does not come with an SD card. With a full HD 1080p resolution and 44 megapixels, this budget camera will be able to capture videos and photos in HD quality. On top of this, with a powerful CMOS processor and image stabilization, users will always be able to capture important moments in a clear and lifelike quality. And TRNSMT revellers won't need to worry about standing at the back of a crowd, as the camera boasts a 16X digital zoom so users will feel like they are on stage with their favourite artist. The camera also comes with a flashlight to capture moments in the dark. In order to access your favourite photos and post them on social media after the celebrations are over, all shoppers need to do is connect the camera to their laptop or PC with a USB cable and transfer the photos over. Another popular device on Amazon is the CAMKORY Digital Camera. Normally retailing for £49.99, shoppers can now buy it for £36.79.

Alternatively, Argos is selling the AGFA 24MP 8x Zoom Compact Digital Camera for £54.99.

Many left reviews expressing how the camera 'exceeded their expectations' and how easy it was to use. One happy shopper said: "I recently purchased this digital camera, and it came at the right time and I used it at a cousin's civil wedding ceremony. It is super beautiful and exceeded all my expectations. The image quality is outstanding, with sharp detail and vibrant colors even in low-light conditions." With another five-star reviewer adding: "If you're looking for a reliable digital camera that delivers great battery life, excellent picture quality, and fast autofocus, this model is a solid choice. Whether you're capturing landscapes, portraits, or action shots, it performs well across different conditions." However, one shopper grumbled: "Doesn't come with memory card. Also needs charged up a bit before using." Another shopper also said: "Perfect camera just didn't come with SD card like said so couldn't use it, now have to waste money on another SD card when it should've come with the camera." Despite this, a top reviewer praised: "Definitely worth buying, quality is amazing, all of my photos came out very clear and it is simple to work. It is very easy to carry as it is small enough to fit into a bag or to just be hand held, as it comes with a cute donut landyard to attach to the camera and wear around your neck." While a sixth customer noted: "This compact digital camera is a pleasant surprise. It's lightweight, easy to use, and perfect for casual photography or gifting to kids and beginners.
