Orlando Bloom embraces bachelor vibes in pajamas at Bezos wedding after THAT hangout with Sydney Sweeney
Orlando Bloom embraced his new single status by sporting pajamas during Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez 's wedding weekend in Venice.
The newest bachelor in Hollywood looked relaxed as he lounged on a boat in Venice just shortly after it was revealed that he and his fiancée Katy Perry had called it quits after nine years together.
Earlier in the day, the 48-year-old actor was pictured spending time with Sydney Sweeney, 27, as they enjoyed a romantic stroll through the Venetian city streets alongside Tom Brady.
The day earlier, he attended the billionaire Amazon founder's lavish wedding celebration in Italy by himself — while his now-ex was busy touring in Australia.
As he prepared to attend the Bezos' post-nuptials soirée, he was seen basking in the golden hour rays and lounging in polkadot pajamas.
He left the black-and-white sleep shirt unbuttoned to reveal black tank top and several pendant necklaces on his neck, sporting matching Dolce & Gabbana polkadot PJs.
He left his hair purposefully tousled and looked calm and stoic as he leaned back as he and several pals traveled via water taxi to the next celebrity congregation spot in the city.
At one point, he was seen throwing up his hand into a 'hang loose' shaka sign before throwing his arm around a friend as they started moving forward.
It comes just hours after he enjoyed a city stroll alongside Sydney Sweeney and NFL legend Tom Brady — both of whom recently sparked romance rumors while attending what has been helmed as the 'wedding of the century.'
After jetting off to Venice for the week of celebrations, Bloom made unwanted headlines after he was spotted in the back of a Venetian water taxi with a woman on Thursday.
It came just a short time after news that Bloom and his fiancée Perry, 40, had called off their engagement broke.
The woman spotted enjoying an evening with the A-lister was later revealed to be Jamie Mizrahi, 36, who was actually a former stylist for Perry and Meghan Markle.
Bloom was also spotted enjoying a Venetian brunch the following morning and sipping on cocktails poolside with celebrity pals Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Brady during a boys' day out — while Perry continued her tour in Australia.
Meanwhile Sweeney — who sparked romance rumors with Tom Brady after they were spotted chatting at a bar — was reportedly the 'most sought after' celebrity in Venice.
A source told MailOnline: 'Sydney apparently is the most sought-after person to be around at the Bezos wedding.
'Everyone wants to talk to her and every guy that has been in her presence has talked about how stunning she is in real life.'
The Euphoria star looked ethereal for the wedding on Friday, clad in a dazzling pink dress which complemented her blonde locks.
The festivities are set to continue on Saturday night as the A-listers will once again gather for a huge party, though some guests including Kim and Khloe Kardashian left early.
Sweeney was one of a host of stars to put on their best glam for what has widely been dubbed 'the wedding of the century'.

Analogue film photography 'magic' winning back growing numbers
Baby Ester's first moments were captured by her father using an analogue the birth of their first child was a no-brainer for Francis Sanders and his wife Naomi, as was their decision to use film. "There wasn't even a conversation about it, we were just going to do it on film," said Francis."It gives that nostalgic effect and a sort of magic and character that you can't characterise with digital photography... you get photos that just have more feeling in them."Francis, 34, is one of what appears to be a growing number of people embracing this more traditional method of photography. On Instagram more than 44 million photos are listed under the hashtag # year a study from research company Cognitive Market Research said the global film camera market value was set to reach some £303m by 2030, up from £223.2m in which produces film and cameras, said its film finishing department was currently running around the clock to keep up with Technology, which makes ILFORD film, said it had seen a significant rise in the use of film over the past decade and recently announced a multi-million pound investment to ensure it could continue to meet demand. Francis, who works as an eye surgeon, inherited film cameras from his father when he died in it wasn't until 2020 that he decided to have a go at using them himself and was pleased to discover a roll containing photos his dad had taken on a family trip the year before he began using the cameras to take photographs of family holidays and events and quickly became a fan of analogue film photography."It's that anticipation, the unknown and you don't have to worry about taking the perfect shot," he said. On the day of his wife's elective caesarean section he was put in charge of the playlist and photography. "I chose deliberately to shoot with a more automated camera to make life a lot easier," he said."I wanted to finish the roll so I just hammered it and it was great."Shooting on film, Francis had no idea if he had managed to successfully capture the precious moments. He took the camera roll to Ethan Fowler, a photographer who runs a photo lab from his home in Newport. When he went to collect the black and white images he was left feeling both relieved and moved."That initial moment of seeing our first child for the very first time, we'll never lose that now," said Francis."Just knowing that it actually worked as well was just a thrill."But film photography doesn't always go to the three months since his daughter was born Francis has taken two other rolls of film to Ethan expecting images of his daughter only to discover they were blank."I don't tend to worry about that stuff too much because what will be will be," laughed Francis. "I save my stress for work." Ethan had been developing his own photos at home for some time before he set up Newport Film Lab after spotting a resurgence in film photography. "It's a bit like vinyl, it is making a comeback," said the 27-year-old. "It's like fashion as well, things do end up doing a complete cycle."Working with film also takes him back to his childhood and the trips he would make to Boots to get photos developed with his grandmother."I remember those feelings of waiting to see pictures and the anticipation," he said. "You'd have to wait a couple of weeks to get them back and there was a buzz because you didn't always remember what you'd taken."These days he enjoys being able to create that anticipation for others, like Carol Hughes from Abergavenny. Carol, 68, contacted Ethan after finding an old roll of film that had belonged to her late had been in the back of a drawer for at least 40 years and she had no idea what was on was thrilled to discover photos of her late father, her brother and sister-in-law at home on their family farm with a litter of puppies."We were really pleased to find photos of family that we didn't know existed," she said. "It was a trip down memory lane." Ethan said he couldn't see people's love for film photography fading any time soon. "It's the imperfections - the dust, the scratches just add character," he said."It captures emotion so well."He is never happier than when in his darkroom."It's the water running, the chemistry, the smells," he said. "And you're the first person to see the film and the pictures after development and that's really special."

Bloodied clothes, sex attack claims and unanswered riddles of Benidorm 5 – what DID happen to Kirsty Maxwell?
SITTING on the plane, Kirsty Maxwell was in high spirits. Surrounded by friends, the 27-year-old bank worker was on her way to Benidorm for a hen weekend. Laughing and joking as they looked forward to spending time together in the Spanish party resort, the women were unaware that within hours, an unimaginable tragedy would strike. 16 16 Kirsty, herself a newlywed, would be found dead, her body lying by the pool of the Apartamentos Payma, where she was staying, after she plummeted from the balcony of a room on the 10th floor occupied by five British men. At first, it was suspected Kirsty had been murdered, but following a Spanish police investigation, the case was shelved and her death was recorded as an accident. Her grieving family, however, refuse to accept this. 'I know she didn't jump,' says Kirsty's aunt Angela Lees, 64. 'She wouldn't take her own life. "There's no way. That girl had everything to live for. She didn't sleepwalk. She had a drink in her, but she wasn't falling-about drunk.' Now, the family's eight-year fight to discover the truth is being told by a new podcast. What Happened To Kirsty Maxwell? is written, narrated and produced by true crime podcaster Naomi Channell, who decided to make the series after meeting Kirsty's family at a CrimeCon event in 2023, which they were attending to raise awareness of their campaign. 'They looked like they were broken,' Naomi remembers. 'What struck me first about the case was how nothing made sense. "I read through it all and thought, 'How has this been allowed to fall through the cracks?'' Kirsty, who was from Livingston, Scotland, was in the prime of her life when she boarded her flight to Benidorm. The previous September, she had married her long-term boyfriend Adam Maxwell. BBC documentary 'Killed Abroad' shows previously unseen footage of tragic Kirsty Maxwell asleep hours before Benidorm balcony plunge Blissfully happy, they were in the process of buying a new home, as well as planning to start a family. After touching down in Benidorm on April 28, 2017, Kirsty and the rest of the hen party checked into their apartment building just after 9pm, then headed out for the night. She returned, along with two friends, at 5.35am the next morning. Although she'd been drinking, CCTV footage shows she was clearly in control. She went to bed and at 6.50am, a friend who was sharing a room with her on the ninth floor took a video of her snoring. What happened next, however, remains shrouded in confusion. Having been asleep in bed, Kirsty left her room and went up to the 10th floor, where some of the hens were staying. Her family believes she went looking for their apartment, possibly in search of painkillers or contact lens solution, which she had forgotten. For whatever reason, she ended up in room 10E, barefoot and without her phone – where there were five bodybuilders from Nottingham, part of a group of more than 50 people in Spain celebrating a birthday. 16 16 16 The men in the flat were Joseph Graham, then 32, a logistics manager with Amazon, who opened the door to Kirsty, Ricky Gammon, a 31-year-old cage fighter, Anthony Holehouse, 34, Callum Northridge, 29, and Daniel Bailey, 32. Minutes after entering, Kirsty was dead, her body splayed on the concrete by the pool. Soon after, the police phoned her husband Adam. Unable to understand what they were saying, he rang one of the hens, who told him the tragic news. 'It was devastating. It doesn't sink in. She adored Adam, they had their future mapped out,' says Kirsty's mum Denise Curry, 61. As the family reeled in shock, in Spain the police suspected foul play, and the five men from Room 10E were questioned. One of them, Joseph Graham, was arrested. In police interviews, the men said Kirsty walked into their apartment without speaking. She then apparently rushed into the bathroom and was 'acting mad, drunk or both'. 16 Joseph told police that she attempted to climb through a small bathroom window, which led to another area of the flat, before giving up and jumping over the Juliet balcony, plunging to her death below. He allegedly screamed: 'She's jumped!' after she disappeared, and told police that he only spoke to her to ask her to leave. Meanwhile, Kirsty's mum, dad Brian, aunt Angela, Adam and his parents all booked flights to Spain. At that point they still had no idea what had happened, only that Kirsty was dead. 'Our priority was to get to Benidorm,' recalls Angela. 'We got on the plane, and we were just numb. Nobody could speak. "It was a bank holiday weekend, and the plane was full of holiday-makers. When we arrived in Benidorm, people were singing and dancing, but we were in shock. "Then we were told what had happened. We just couldn't believe it. We were immediately suspicious that something untoward had gone on in that room.' It was reported at the time by the family's lawyer, Luis Miguel Zumaquero, that police had said Kirsty fell to her death in a 'state of terror' and that she was allegedly fleeing a 'sexual attack that had begun to materialise'. It was Judge Ana Isabel Garcia-Galbis' job to decide if charges should be bought. Joseph Graham was arrested at the time and taken to court before being released without charge. Within 48 hours, the other four men were also probed over her death before being allowed to return to the UK pending further investigations. The men's lawyer, Roberto Sanchez, said: 'My clients have nothing to hide', and Joseph released a statement saying: 'I have been advised by my Spanish lawyer that, despite me not being charged with any wrongdoing, the investigation into this tragic accident is still ongoing. "I am unable to say anything at this time, other than I am innocent of any wrongdoing.' On May 1, Kirsty's family travelled to a morgue in Spain to view her body. 'Words can't describe the pain,' says Angela. 16 To add to their heartache, Spanish newspapers published a photo of Kirsty's body where she had fallen, which a bystander had taken. Angela says they were on autopilot, hardly sleeping or eating. The family stayed in the town and used social media to try to find new witnesses, especially people who were staying in a holiday complex opposite the apartments and might have seen something. On May 5, they brought Kirsty's body home. Frustrated by the apparent lack of action, the family engaged another lawyer, Lorena Soler Bernabeu, who arranged for further forensic analysis and later attempted to recall the five men for questioning. It was reported that a judge knocked back four separate requests from the family as they tried to seek answers. Then, on July 28, four of the men broke their silence to deny any involvement in her death. The four men who attended the hearing said: 'This was a tragic accident and we categorically deny any involvement in this unfortunate incident,' The Nottingham Post reported. 'The opinion of the judge is that this was an accident. 'It goes without saying that our deepest sympathy goes out to Kirsty's family and our thoughts are with them all at this terrible time.' Deepened suspicions The Spanish court declared the investigation complete and refused. Naomi says: 'The confusion and the men's subsequent silence has only deepened suspicions. "The men's clothing was not collected and Spanish police later confirmed that Kirsty's clothes had been destroyed, saying they had been 'inspected visually' and then incinerated because they were bloodstained.' She adds: 'The family even contacted the Spanish Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez, asking that any biological samples or forensic evidence be preserved. "The Scottish First Minister backed the request. Sánchez never replied.' Back in the UK, the family explored every legal avenue and set up online information appeals. 'We were left to become our own detectives,' says Brian, 66. 'We spent months going through emails, pushing for meetings, hiring our own forensic experts. We had no choice.' 16 16 Spanish police maintained the death was accidental. The lead investigator, César García, later stated that 'no sufficient evidence' pointed to criminal involvement. In 2018, a biomechanics expert reviewed the case on behalf of the family, and stated that the way Kirsty's garments were positioned was inconsistent with a fall. Her tight denim skirt and top had ridden up. The following year, after repeated requests, Kirsty's family was told some potential witnesses could be questioned via video link at Mansfield Magistrates' Court. But when the day arrived, technical problems meant a link could not be established and instead a court official took statements from the witnesses using a list of questions. 'It was a total farce,' says Brian. In September 2019, the Spanish courts decided to shelve a criminal probe. The family appealed, and in July 2020, three Spanish judges in Alicante ruled that there was no 'strong evidence' of criminality surrounding the death. In a statement, they said: 'Kirsty, affected by alcohol and after consuming the equivalent of 10 spirits the night before, appears to have left her apartment 9A and voluntarily entered 10E where the five men were. "Nothing points to the contrary. 'Although it is true cocaine was found in the bathroom of apartment 10E and the dead woman's fingerprints were discovered on an interior bathroom window, it has not been possible to obtain strong evidence of specific and individualised criminality in terms of the victim's death in any of the five men investigated.' However, the What Happened To Kirsty Maxwell? podcast questions some discrepancies in the statements the men gave at the time. Naomi explains: 'One said he was asleep. Another said he didn't notice Kirsty entering. There was confusion over whether she walked in uninvited or whether she was brought in by one of the men.' There is also a suggestion that there may have been another woman with one of the men at some point during the evening. Police also found erection-enhancing pills. Furthermore, police statements seen by The Sun state that Joseph's nose was bleeding and that he admitted he had been snorting narcotics. No toxicology reports for the men exist. It isn't disputed that the men had been drinking, and this could explain some of the discrepancies in their stories. Naomi says: 'They always exercised their right to say 'no comment' outside of pre-agreed questions from their lawyer. "It's frustrating, because they have the right to say no comment, but for Kirsty's family, there's so little information. 'There's been such a limited amount of detail that's come from those five men. "It's almost like Kirsty drifts into a room, nobody says anything to her, approaches her or does anything. . . and then she jumps off the balcony.' The podcast host adds: 'Denise and Brian have been so dignified. They have always gone through official channels. "They have never messaged the men on social media, they just want answers.' Meanwhile, the family remains in legal limbo. 'It's frustrating,' says Brian. 'The authorities have ended their investigation. "They've asked us to present more evidence before they'll look at it again, but every time we suggest something, they don't agree.' The family hopes raising awareness might encourage new witnesses to come forward and help others in similar situations. 'The campaign for answers has consumed our life,' says Brian. 'In the process, a lot of people have approached us with similar stories and we've been able to give them help and advice.' On each anniversary of their daughter's death, Brian says he and his wife 'quietly do our own thing', visiting their daughter's favourite places, like the riverbank where she walked her dog, and remembering the happy, vibrant woman she was. 'Kirsty would light up a room with her smile and her laugh,' says Angela. 'She was such a loving, caring person. 'We just want someone to tell the truth. Kirsty walked into that room by mistake, but she didn't walk out. We owe it to her. We won't stop. Kirsty is not here, so we must be here for her.'

Cliff diving and a naked bike ride: photos of the weekend
Hungarians take part in Budapest Pride. Early in 2025, Hungary passed a law restricting the freedom of assembly for LGBTQ+ people by connecting it to a previous law from 2021 prohibiting the public portrayal to children of 'divergence from self-identity corresponding to sex at birth, sex change or homosexuality'. Consequently, events such as Pride marches are illegal in the country.
