Katy, 40 is currently on her world tour, and has put on a brave face despite her ongoing separation from Orlando.
It was revealed last week how the A-list couple had parted ways after nine-years together.
But while he headed off to Jeff Bezos' wedding in Italy, Katy has remained on tour.
As she brought her final show in Australia to a close she began to well up.
Making a heart with her fingers, Katy's voice started to crack as she addressed the crowd.
"Thank you Australia for always being there for me," she said, clearly fighting back tears.
Meanwhile, Katy's ex-Orlando took to Instagram to share a series of cryptic posts.
Hinting at his life taking a new direction, one read: "Each day is a new beginning.
"What we do today is what matters most."
While the other also talked about change, and said: "The important thing is to take the first step.
Heartbroken Katy Perry told pals in January that Orlando Bloom relationship was OVER - as star removes engagement ring
"Bravely overcoming one small fear gives you the courage to take on the next."
ORLANDO SPLIT
It's been an emotional week for both Katy and Orlando.
Last week, The Sun reported how the star couple held crisis talks to try to save their relationship after leading increasingly separate lives.
An insider said: 'No one has decided it's definitely the end of the road for Katy and Orlando.
'They both love each other, but they have been living different lives for at least a year and in different mindsets.'
The insider added: 'They have barely been together for a decent amount of time, without distractions, for many, many months.'
Just days after news of their break-up broke, Orlando "made his debut as a single man" at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's wedding.
At the three-day celebration he was seen embracing Kim Kardashian and chatting to Sydney Sweeney.
Katy and Orlando started dating in 2016 and got engaged three years later.

Man in throuple with ex-wife and new partner reveals they are planning to raise their baby as a trio
A man in a throuple with his ex-wife and new partner has revealed that they are now expecting - and have decided to raise the baby together as a trio. Joshua Alcon, 37, from Colorado Springs, Colorado, married his high school sweetheart Katherine, also 37, in 2008, and together, they welcomed four kids over the years. Recently, they decided to divorce after going through a series of 'ups and downs'... but their relationship didn't end there. While they are no longer married, they are now in a throuple with another woman, named Abby, 35. While chatting with the Daily Mail about it, Joshua explained that when he and Katherine ended their marriage they 'never intended to stop being together.' 'We have had our ups and downs, but we've always planned on being together regardless of what a piece of paper says,' he said. He said that he and Katherine always felt like they 'had more love to give' so Katherine - who had been vocal about her interest in women since high school - suggested after their divorce that they look for another woman to bring into their relationship. Joshua admitted that while he 'was scared' to enter into a throuple at first, he realized it might make their relationship stronger in the end. They began looking on Tinder, which is where he connected with Abby, and immediately, he said they all shared a strong bond that was undeniable. 'I matched with Abby and we started messaging. Abby immediately asked if Kat knew about this. I said yes and we started a group text message off the Tinder app,' explained Joshua. 'Abby lived about 70 miles away (about and hour and a half drive) but we found ourselves driving to her house every other day to just spend time with her. 'If we didn't, we talked all night until we went to bed (the three of us). It became agonizing when she wasn't around. That's how we knew, she was meant to be. 'Abby is an incredible person and an incredible find. We can't imagine our lives without her now.' Joshua went on to tie the knot with Abby in November 2024, and they now all live in a home together with his and Katherine's kids Josslyn, 17, Helena, 12, JJ, 10, and Hannah, seven. He vowed that their children have 'absolutely accepted Abby' and 'love her as much as they do.' Katherine (seen left with Abby) - who had long been vocal about her interest in women - suggested after their divorce that they look for another woman to bring into their relationship 'She has really developed special relationships with each kid and it's so amazing to see,' he added. He said all three of them 'make decisions together as one' and 'pretty much do everything together.' The three of them share a king sized bed 'comfortably,' with Joshua adding, 'Most of the time I'm in the middle cuddling, but sometimes Abby or Kat will take the middle to switch it up.' But he confessed that being in a throuple has its difficulties, as they sometimes have to deal with 'jealousy.' 'I will never say there is no jealousy but if and when it pops up we discuss our feelings and a lot of the time it's a beautiful conversation that brings us closer together,' he added. Now, they're gearing up to have another baby together as Katherine found out that she was expecting again in December 2024. 'It was definitely a surprise and an amazingly special thing for us,' he gushed. 'We will absolutely be raising [our daughter] together with Abby.' He said they hope that one day all three of them can be legally married to each other. And while they often get hate online for their unusual dynamic, Joshua said he's completely unfazed by it. 'We get some hate online it's a lot of your average uptight over-religious people passing judgement,' he concluded. 'We take it with a grain of salt because at the end of the day we love each other and our kids. 'We are showing our kids love comes to you in all ways and you can love who you want when you want and how you want.'

Orlando Bloom's ex wife Miranda Kerr makes allegiance clear as she shares video of Katy Perry performing after the singer enjoyed a cosy dinner date with Justin Trudeau
Miranda Kerr has made her allegiants clear as she shared a video of Katy Perry performing on Instagram on Tuesday, weeks after the singer split from fiancé Orlando Bloom. It comes as Katy sparked new romance rumours on Monday with former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as they enjoyed a cozy dinner date in Montreal at the city's Le Violon restaurant. And now Miranda, who was married to Orlando from 2010 to 2013, has shared a gallery of pictures with her 14.3million followers from her 'summer so far' which included a video of Katy performing during her Lifetimes Tour. The pop star performed hit California Girls at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles on July 15, and Miranda beamed for a selfie from the crowd with model pal Amélie Tremblay. The Aussie supermodel, who has previously gushed she 'adores Katy', is the mother of the Lord Of The Rings star's son Flynn, 13, while the I Kissed A Girl songstress shares four-year-old daughter Daisy with Orlando. Fans rushed to the comments to praise Miranda for her 'sweet friendship' with the Roar hitmaker. They wrote: 'It's always refreshing to see ladies supporting each other especially in blended family situations; Love the mama and step mama love; 'Randy and Katy - the sweetest friendship ever; She hug Katy Perry by came to her concert; Girl support girl. Miranda you are one classy lady'. Elsewhere in her photo dump, the model shared a black and white photo of the Eiffel Tower as she spend time in Paris as well as a number of baked good. She also snapped a picture rolling out pastry with hers and son Flynn's name written on parchment paper and she stunned in a plunging top during a lavish meal out. Miranda, who is now married to Snap Inc. co-founder and CEO Evan Spiegel, has only ever had kind things to say about her ex and Katy, as she gushed in 2022 that she 'adores' the singer. Miranda and Orlando began dating back in 2007, with an engagement following in June of 2010. They were married just a month later, and the couple welcomed their son Flynn in January 2011. But in October 2013, the two announced that they were divorcing and had already separated months earlier. The post comes days after Katy sparked romance rumours with Justin Trudeau as they were filmed dining together in Montreal at the city's Le Violon restaurant. In a video obtained by Daily Mail, the pair leaned over a table towards one another as they intimately chatted. A smiling Katy, who is currently on the Canadian leg of her panned Lifetimes Tour, was seen gesturing as Trudeau intently listened. Daily Mail has contacted representatives for comment and has yet to hear back. It has been a tough few months for the unlikely pairing - with Katy weathering her tough split from former fiancé Orlando, a flop album, 143, and immense backlash over her April Blue Origin space trip. Katy and Justin started their romantic evening with a park stroll, and headed for drinks after dinner at Taverne Atlantic, with sources telling TMZ they enjoyed some drinks on the terrace. In a video obtained by the publication, the popstar looked sensational in a black and white dress, while Trudeau cut a dapper figure in a navy shirt and slacks. Meanwhile, Trudeau is navigating life outside of 24 Sussex after his resignation in January following a dramatic fall from grace. Trudeau shares three children with ex wife Sophie Grégoire Trudeau, from whom he announced a split in August 2023 after 18 years of marriage. Sophie was a childhood friend and classmate of Trudeau's older brother Michel, who died in an avalanche in 1998 aged 23. They began dating in 2003 after reconnecting as adults and were engaged a short time afterwards. Katy and Orlando began dating in 2016 and got engaged on Valentine's Day 2019. Split speculation swirled for months before the pair finally confirmed the end of their romance last month. Representatives for the pair confirmed to Daily Mail last month that 'Orlando and Katy have been shifting their relationship over the past many months to focus on co-parenting. 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.' The Teenage Dream hitmaker - who is currently on her Lifetimes Tour - was previously married to Russell Brand from 2010 until their divorce in 2012.

Ever heard the one about the pop star and the former PM? How Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau suffered a remarkably similar fall from grace before unlikely friends were spotted dining out in Canada
Ever heard the one about the famous pop star walking into a bar with a former Prime Minister? You'd be forgiven for thinking it's the punchline to a joke, but on Tuesday night in the heart of Montreal it really happened - and there's video to prove it. Indeed, singer and sometime astronaut Katy Perry left staff-members at upscale restaurant Le Violon speechless after arriving in the company of their former Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau. Perry, recently single following an abrupt separation from fiancé Orlando Bloom in June, was filmed enjoying a relaxed and apparently uninhibited conversation with Trudeau, 53, over a two hour dinner date at the fine dining eatery. And there would have been no shortage of things to talk about given their colourful careers, their shared history of occasionally controversial headlines, inappropriate gaffes and - of late - an alarmingly similar decline in popularity. Perry, 40, may well have wanted to talk about her recent journey to space aboard the Blue Origin NS-31 rocket, an 11-minute flight that whisked the singer and her all-female crew some 62 miles about the Earth. She might have been less keen to elaborate on the public fallout that ensued, with Perry and her well-heeled fellow space-wanderers subsequently accused of participating in a costly, and completely pointless, vanity project. The singer no doubt had good intentions when she claimed to be putting the 'ass' into astronaut and pulled on her jumpsuit before joining the likes of TV presenter Gayle King, film producer Kerianne Flynn, civil rights activist Amanda Nguyen and Lauren Sanchez - the wife of billionaire Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos - aboard the controversial capsule. It would transpire to be the first all-female space flight since Russian astronaut Valentina Tereshkova's solo trip in 1963, but any historical relevance was quickly lost within hours of their return to Earth as a bemused general public rounded on the beleaguered crew. Perry didn't exactly help her cause by emerging from the capsule holding a daisy to the sky - an apparent reference to young daughter Daisy Dove, who she shares with Bloom - before dropping to her knees and kissing the ground. 'It's not about singing my songs,' she said breathlessly after greeting the media. 'It's about a collective energy in there. It's about us. It's about making space for future women and taking up space and belonging.' Maybe, maybe not, but it was no coincidence that Blue Origin happened to be owned by Bezos, with many critics dismissing the 11-minute flight as 'Amazon PR.' Other accused the celebrity astronauts of 'gluttonous' and 'planet destroying' behaviour, while questioning what the trio even contributed to society. An inside source called the criticism unexpected for the former American Idol judge and 'disheartening' for the rest of the all-female crew. 'Katy doesn't regret going to space. It was life changing. What she does regret is making a public spectacle out of it,' the insider exclusively revealed to Daily Mail. Perry recently split from longtime partner Bloom and is currently on tour, with stops including Ottawa on Tuesday, Montreal on Wednesday, Quebec City on Friday, and two dates in Toronto next week. With that in mind, Trudeau would be the perfect sounding board for Perry to discuss her latest album, 143, released last September, and her future plans as a recording artist. She'd be forgiven, of course, for omitting the disastrous reviews it received upon release and the savaging she was forced to take for collaborating with controversial producer Dr. Luke on album that appears to promote themes of female empowerment, independence and positivity. The American producer, real name Łukasz Sebastian Gottwald, worked with Perry after settling a decade long legal dispute with pop star Kesha, who he initially sued in 2014 when she accused him of physical, sexual, and emotional abuse - an allegation he strenuously denied. With that in mind, an album loaded with songs titles like Women's World, I'm His, He's Mine, Gimme Gimme and All The Love was always going to be a hard sell for Perry - and a red rag for critics. Referencing the controversy during an appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast, she sais: 'I understand that it started a lot of conversations. And he was one of many collaborators that I collaborated with. 'But the reality is it comes from me. The truth is I wrote these songs from my experience of my whole life going through this metamorphosis, and he was one of the people to help facilitate all that—one of the writers, one of the producers. 'I am speaking from my own experience. When I speak about Woman's World, I speak about feeling so empowered now as a mother, as a woman, giving birth creating life, creating another set of organs, a brain, a heart. 'I created a whole whole heart and I did it. I'm still doing it. And I'm still a matriarch. And feeling really grounded in that, that's where I'm speaking from.' If Perry's music career is off the cards, Trudeau might be keen to elaborate on his time in office as Canada's 23rd Prime Minister, a role he occupied for ten years before resigning in January. But you wouldn't blame him for wanting to skirt around his youth, notably the notorious 'Arabian Nights' party he attended in 2001. It will forever be a testy subject for the liberal-minded Trudeau, whose popularity plummeted in 2021 after an unearthed photo from the bash captured him in full blackface. Canada's future Prime Minister had inadvertantly added more fuel to the fire by completing the look with flowing robes and raffish turban. Trudeau had a hard time talking his way out of the gaffe, and the self-proclaiming feminist who once took a knee during a Black Lives Matters protest following the death of George Floyd was promptly labelled a 'fake.' Others were quick to point out that the famously woke Trudeau was not a naive teenager but 29-years old and a responsible teacher when he attended the Arabian Nights party. Photos of the notorious event first emerged in 2019 - prompting outrage and a swift apology from Trudeau - but 2021 was the first time a colour image from the party had been released. The gaffe, coupled with his handling of the thousands of First Nations unmarked graves at former residential school sites subsequently triggered a powerful backlash against the then Prime Minister. Trudeau originally announced the separation on Instagram in matching posts written in both English (pictured) and French Water under the bridge one might say, and anyway, who cares when Trudeau already shares plenty of common ground with Perry? Much like his recent dinner date, the former PM is single - some two years after confirming his separation from wife Sophie Gregoire Trudeau after 18-years of marriage. Lots to discuss over an intimate dinner then, but Trudeau may well be reluctant to delve into the circumstances surrounding their unexpected separation, and the acrimony that followed. Trudeau originally announced the separation on Instagram in matching posts written in both English and French. His office also released a statement to confirm they had reached a legal agreement and would remain amicable for the sake of their three children. But commentators were quick to assess how the announcement would affect his career and carefully curated image in the lead-up to the 2025 election. Columnist Jamie Sarkonak observed in the National Post at the time: 'The timing doesn't bode well for the prime minister - especially since much of his personal marketing has to do with image. 'Trudeau can no longer play the loving husband, the family man. He can't live by example on the family file, because he can't claim personal success on that front.' In 2014, Trudeau was able to settle rumors about infidelity after a line in his autobiography, Common Ground, was deemed ambiguous. He wrote: 'Our marriage isn't perfect, and we have had difficult ups and downs, yet Sophie remains my best friend, my partner, my love. 'We are honest with each other, even when it hurts.' The separation coincided with a downturn in popularity for Trudeau and a dramatic reversal of fortune for Canadian liberals, with poll numbers declining across the country even before his separation was made public. After ten years in office, Trudeau confirmed his resignation in January. A communications consultant for the restaurant Le Violon confirmed Tuesday that the former prime minister and the singer spent about two hours at the fine-dining spot Monday evening. Photos of the unexpected meet-up, originally published by TMZ, sparked speculation of a budding romance. Samantha Jin said the pair kept to themselves and neither the staff nor other patrons approached them for a photo. 'We kind of got the vibe that they were a little more chill,' she said. Jin added that there was no indication of romance in the air, noting: 'visual signs of PDA or anything.' The report about the dinner first appeared on TMZ, which posted video of Trudeau and Perry in animated conversation at the eatery. During the meal, Jin said security watched from the bar as the pair noshed on a menu featuring a range of appetisers including tuna, beef tartare, lobster and asparagus, with lamb as their main course. Jin said Chef Danny Smiles stopped by their table to say hello, and before heading out, they came into the kitchen to thank the team. Born and raised in California, Perry is a 13-time Grammy Award nominee. She helped usher in the sound of ´00s pop, quickly becoming one of the best-selling artists of all time for her campy, big, belting anthems. She has released seven studio albums, most notably 2010´s sugar-sweet Teenage Dream. The album produced five number one singles, matching a record set by Michael Jackson with the release of his 1987 album Bad.
