Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom reunite on Jeff Bezos' honeymoon after recent split
Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom may have recently announced the end of their romantic relationship, but their latest public appearance tells a different story.
The former couple, who said they are now focusing on co-parenting their daughter Daisy Dove, have joined newlyweds Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez on what appears to be part of the couple's honeymoon.
The Teenage Dream singer, 40, and the 48-year-old actor were seen on board Bezos's luxury superyacht in the Mediterranean, accompanied by their four-year-old daughter.
Despite confirming they had decided to 'shift' their relationship to focus purely on parenting, Katy and Orlando appeared relaxed and happy to be spending time together as a family, in pictures obtained by Mail Online.
Their appearance on the yacht has drawn even more attention, not only because of the high-profile nature of the Bezos'' honeymoon, but also due to the timing of their getaway following their split. Many expected the couple to be spending time apart following their separation, yet they seem to have chosen the opposite by joining a romantic trip.
Katy, who missed Bezos and Sanchez's extravagant £48 million wedding in Venice while touring in Australia, may have been making up for lost time. Dressed in a black bikini, the Dark Horse singer looked at ease as she enjoyed the Italian coast and watched Orlando play affectionately with their daughter.
Orlando, for his part, seemed equally content as he was seen throwing Daisy into the air before catching her and kissing her on the cheek.
The actor had previously attended the wedding solo, where he was spotted socialising with a high-profile guest list including Tom Brady, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Sydney Sweeney. He was also seen chatting with a mystery woman during the celebrations which raised many an eyebrow.
Still, despite appearances at separate events and suggestions of moving on, their yacht trip suggests that Katy and Orlando continue to operate as a close-knit unit.
Last week, the pair officially called it quits on their nine-year romance - six years after the Pirates of The Caribbean actor popped the question.
In a statement, their respective representatives declared: "Orlando and Katy have been shifting their relationship over the past many months to focus on coparenting. They will continue to be seen together as a family, as their shared priority is - and always will be - raising their daughter with love, stability and mutual respect."
Before the official announcement, an insider had informed the magazine of their amicable split, stating: "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."
Hints of trouble had appeared on Orlando's Instagram stories on July 2, where he shared a poignant message from Carl Gustav Jung: "Loneliness does not come from having no people about one, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself."
This came shortly after a June 30 post quoting Buddha: "Each day is a new beginning. What we do today is what matters most." The signs of a separation were evident in Orlando's posts before the official statement, and he turned up alone at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez's nuptials.
Tour duties kept Katy Perry from attending the glitzy event. Days before, the 40-year-old delivered an emotionally charged performance in Adelaide, Australia, on June 30. Katy Perry broke down as she wrapped up her set, fighting back tears and creating a heart sign with her hands to express her affection for the crowd.
Grateful for their unwavering support, Katy told the audience: "Thank you for always being there for me, Australia. It means the world." After regaining her composure, Katy burst into her renowned hit 'Firework'.
Katy and Orlando's love story began in 2016, endured a brief hiatus after a year, before rekindling flames in 2018. The power couple got engaged in 2019 and embraced parenthood with the arrival of Daisy Dove in 2020.

Jennifer Lopez, 56, 'splits from record label' as she delivers a racy performance in Turkey during her tour
Jennifer Lopez has reportedly 'split from her record label' as she delivered another sizzling performance during her Up All Night tour in Turkey on Wednesday. The singer, 56, is now said to be an independent artist, releasing her new single Birthday through a smaller company, according to The Sun. Her 2024 album This Is Me… Now was released under BMG, the same label that represents stars like Kylie Minogue and Rita Ora. However, the publication reported that the deal was only for one album, and following disappointing sales, both parties agreed to go their separate ways. A music insider told the outlet: 'Jennifer is obviously massively successful and talented but it's been hard for her to find a label who she is on the same page with. 'After her last album came out, it was decided she wouldn't continue with BMG as it wasn't the success she wanted. 'It only went to No55 in the UK. But her team want to push forward with new music. She has spent a lot of time in the studio this year.' MailOnline has contacted Jennifer's representative for comment. It comes as the singer took to the stage for an electric performance at the Regnum Carya Hotel. The evening held even greater significance as it doubled as a pre-birthday celebration for the star, who turned 56 on Wednesday. The singer looked incredible as she slipped her jaw-dropping figure into a busty silver leotard as she performed alongside her scantily-clad dancers. The risqué high-cut ensemble featured a plunging neckline, perfectly showcasing the star's gym-honed body. JLo added thigh-high silver boots to her racy look and looked on fine form as she strutted about the stage. At one point, she turned up the heat in a black thong and bra adorned with gold detailing, before slipping into a long-sleeve white lace bodysuit featuring a chest cut-out. The evening held even greater significance as it doubled as a pre-birthday celebration for Lopez, who turned 56 on Wednesday It comes shortly after JLo shocked with her X-rated performance that saw her simulate sex positions on stage at the Cook Music Fest in Tenerife. She once again left little to the imagination, this time in a thong bodysuit complete with racy cut outs. Jennifer sung on all fours in front of one shirtless dancer, before another lifted her off her feet and she sat on his shoulder with her crotch in his face. Another eye-popping moments saw her straddling one dancer while placing her hands between the legs of another two. The hunky men showcased their gym honed physiques in only trousers and white corsets. The sizzling show comes after she debuted her Ben Affleck revenge song, saying earlier this week: 'This is a song that is a new song that I want to sing for the first time tonight that came to me when I was up all night one night. Shall we sing this one for the people?'. JLO —who first sang the song at a private fan event July 2—said she's 'better' now. 'The love I want, the love I need, it starts in me,' she sang. She then added, 'Now I found my way here I'm gonna stay there. Thank you for the scars you left on my heart, was showing me that stars shine brighter in the dark. I won't fall apart because of who we are, but your broken parts.' And she said the heartbreak made her 'wiser.' 'Because of you, I am stronger, wiser,' Lopez belted out. 'Better than I've ever been.' Then Jennifer made it very clear she would never reunite with Ben: 'I won't let you no longer, longer, ever say goodbye to me. It was perfect while you made me believe, really got only greater for me, and it made me stronger, stronger, bulletproof. Now watch me climb out of the wreckage of you.' She then thanked the unnamed ex for 'the pain that you caused.' In May Jennifer told El Pais that the split was a 'difficult time' but she would be stronger for it. 'I'm proud of myself for that and I'm proud that I was able to navigate my children through difficult times, that they're stronger and better because of it.' It comes after she debuted her Ben Affleck revenge song (Jennifer and Ben's marriage ended earlier this year after filing for divorce in August 2024; seen in January 2024 in LA) Jennifer and Ben tied the knot in 2022 after rekindling their romance. But in August 2024, she filed for divorce on their second wedding anniversary. A statement obtained by at the time read: 'Representatives for Live Nation announced today that the Jennifer Lopez US Summer 2024 Tour THIS IS is canceled. 'Jennifer is taking time off to be with her children, family and close friends,' it was added. Lopez herself also said she was 'heartsick and devastated' over the cancellation but added it was 'absolutely necessary.' An insider also told 'She's taking time off to be with family and close friends. This was a very difficult decision made by Jennifer this week and she's sorry to her fans.'

Chuck Mangione, Grammy-winning jazz musician and composer, dies aged 84
Grammy-winning jazz musician and composer Chuck Mangione died on Tuesday, according to a statement from his family. He was 84. 'The family of Chuck Mangione is deeply saddened to share that Chuck peacefully passed away in his sleep at his home in Rochester, New York on July 22, 2025,' his family said in a statement released on Thursday to the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle. A spokesperson for the celebrated flugelhorn and trumpet player also confirmed the news to People Magazine, and a message on Mangione's official website reads: 'We are very sorry. Chuck Mangione has passed.' Mangione was born on 29 November 1940, in Rochester, New York. According to his Rochester Music Hall of Fame biography, his father introduced him and his brother, pianist Gap Mangione, to jazz early on. 'Growing up in a home steeped in jazz, Chuck and his brother Gap would listen to their father's jazz albums while other kids their age were listening to Elvis or Jerry Lee Louis' the biography states. 'Their father encouraged the boys' appreciation for jazz and would take them to Sunday afternoon matinees at jazz clubs around the city.' The biography also states that their father would 'invite these amazing artists to come home with them for a good home-cooked Italian meal' and that Mangione 'grew up thinking everyone had Carmen McRae and Art Blakey over for dinner'. Mangione got his start in high school playing trumpet in a jazz band with his brother called the The Jazz Brothers, per his website. He later studied at the Eastman School of Music, graduating in 1963 with a bachelor's degree in music. According to his music hall of fame biography, he later returned to the school in 1968 to direct the school's jazz ensemble and to help expand the school's jazz program until 1972. Mangione's then launched a successful solo career, releasing over 30 albums, and selling millions of records. He received 13 Grammy nominations, according to this biography, and won two Grammy Awards, one in 1977 for Bellavia, and the other in 1979 for The Children of Sanchez. His 1977 album Feels So Good became one of the most successful jazz records ever produced, according to the Rochester Music Hall of Fame. And in 1980, he performed at the closing ceremonies of the Winter Olympics in Lake Placid. In 2009, Mangione donated some of his music memorabilia to the Smithsonian National Museum of American History in Washington DC. He was inducted into the Rochester Music Hall of Fame in 2012. In their statement announcing his death on Thursday, Mangione's family said: 'Chuck's love affair with music has been characterized by his boundless energy, unabashed enthusiasm, and pure joy that radiated from the stage.' They added: 'His appreciation for his loyal worldwide fans was genuine as evidenced by how often he would sit at the edge of the stage after a concert for however long it took to sign autographs for the fans who stayed to meet him and the band.'

These are the best museums in Massachusetts, including two Boston-based stunners
Few places in the United States have as strong a claim to the country's history than Massachusetts, home to witches, Harvard and Wahlbergs. WorldAtlas recently took stock of its excellent culture, releasing a list of what they consider the Bay State's 12 best museums. Shockingly, only two of Boston's dozens and dozens of museums (three, if you include Cambridge, which I strongly advise against) made the list. The round-up might be immediately controversial at the local clam chowder haunt for what it leaves out, but no one can say it doesn't cover an impressive amount of ground, from historical homeplaces to industrial icons and world-class fine art galleries. So MFA, Boston and Paul Revere House-heads, start reaching for that stiff drink. The rest of you, grab your Dunkin' and let's hit the road. For the sake of a clean and clockwise itinerary, we'll lay these out in a circuit starting and ending in the capital. These are the best museums in Boston, according to WorldAtlas: Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum (Boston) One of those remarkable museums whose architecture almost surpasses its collection, the Gardner opened in 1903 in the style of a 15th-century Venetian palazzo, with what later became one of the country's most Instagrammed interior courtyards. Centuries later, in 2012, another Italian influence came via Renzo Piano's adjacent modernist wing. Its impressive collection boasts works by masters like Matisse, Titian, Botticelli and Sargent alongside letters and books by Dante, Sarah Bernhardt and T.S. Eliot. For the true crime-inclined, the museum's 1990 heist is still unsolved. Plimoth Patuxet Museums (Plymouth) Through painstakingly accurate recreations of 17th-century life, this living history museum provides a glimpse into the original Plymouth Colony. (As for its name: well, Plimoth was the old-timey spelling, and the 'Patuxet' was added in 2020 to accurately honor the area's original Indigenous name.) This open-air town shows how the Mayflower descendents lived after their historic split from the Church of England, with a well-appointed complex of houses. There's also an on-site market, cafe, cinema and event space, bridging the gap from our time to theirs. Whydah Pirate Museum (Yarmouth) No, its name is not part of a New England accent jokebook. Rather, it's titled after the Whyday Gally pirate ship, which sank near Cape Cod in 1717 and is the only shipwreck to be ever absolutely authenticated post-mortem. The museum highlights that history with artifacts recovered from the ship, which wrecked right in the middle of piracy's golden age, as well as other representatives of the era. New Bedford Whaling Museum (New Bedford) What would a New England coastline be without some seafaring? After taking in one of Boston's famed whale watching boat tours, learn about the region's historic industry at this gabled museum which charts the highs and lows of whaling, and tries to inspire a future for nature preservation. Lizzie Borden House (Fall River) One of the first and most iconic American true crime stories was born here, when 32-year-old Lizzie Borden allegedly axed her parents. She was found innocent but ostracized by the community, and now her childhood home stands as a monument to the incident. Offering gallery exhibitions, rooms to stay overnight, myriad ghost hunting opportunities and even murder mystery dinners, it's one of the spookiest homes in the country. Lyman and Merrie Wood Museum of Springfield History (Springfield) Though it operates mostly as a research center, this Springfield institution boasts impressive collections ready-made for dad, including the world's largest of Indian Motorcycles, which were originally produced in town from the company's 1901 founding through 1953. Its well-stocked firearm (world's largest Smith & Wesson!) and automobile collections make it an international hit. Norman Rockwell Museum (Stockbridge) The country's hopeful image of itself would not be what it is today without the contributions of Norman Rockwell, whose Rosie the Riveter stands as one of the most recognizable and historically important symbols of feminism and industry. Though born in New York City, the painter and illustrator died in rural Stockbridge in 1978. This purpose-built museum explores his life and career via paintings, magazine covers and other works. Worcester Art Museum (Worcester) Stocked with works by John Singer Sargent, an array of Japanese prints and art ranging from Modern to Roman, the Worcester Art Museum also features a Medieval meeting room lifted from a 12th-century French monastery, a theatre and an ecological science museum. Located only about an hour from Boston, it makes a case for the city's incredible culture. Concord Museum (Concord) The city that birthed the Revolutionary War (along with nearby Lexington) and Henry David Thoreau (he of Walden Pond fame) deserves a proper home, and the Concord Museum hosts artifacts and wisdom from both of those American stalwarts, as well as those belonging to the area's Indigenous heritage. Peabody Essex Museum (Salem) One of the oldest operational museums in the country began as a place to store exotic goods collected by the area's far-traveling seafarers in 1799. Today, it holds one of the United States' major collections of Asian art, and a significant African contingent as well. The museum also owns 24 historic structures and gardens throughout town, preserving local architecture and histories beyond its main walls and upping its total tally of items to around 1.3 million. Harvard Museum of Natural History (Cambridge) One of the venerable learning institution's six museums (not counting their specific subdivisions), its most-visited one will wow any nature lover with its collection of fossils, gemstones and famous glass flowers – exquisite, highly realistic glass botanical models. Look up! The massive skeleton of a right whale hangs from the second floor ceiling. Metropolitan Waterworks Museum (Boston) Originally the Chestnut Hill Pumping Station, this building became a beacon of Boston's modernization when it began pumping water to the area in 1887. It's now a fascinating museum that honors the innovation of running water and public life, with tours of the engine rooms and several historical exhibitions.
