Inside US pop star Katy Perry's heartbreak hotel - while ex Orlando Bloom was living it up at Lauren Sanchez and Jeff Bezos' wedding
Reports emerged last week the US pop star, 40, who is currently Down Under amid her Lifetimes Tour, had separated from the actor, 48, after nine years together.
Now, as the Lord of the Rings star lives it up in Europe, Katy has opted for quiet serenity at The Louise in Barossa Valley, 80km from Adelaide.
The luxury retreat is known for its serenity, scenic views and fine wine, proving to be the perfect hideaway for Katy as she nurses a broken heart.
A stay at The Louise includes a gourmet breakfast, pre-dinner drinks and snacks, and dinner at the on-site Appellation with matched wines.

Katy would also enjoy free use of the lodge facilities which include a wet-edge lap pool, fitness centre and sauna.
Earlier last week, it was revealed Orlando and Katy officially called it quits after dating for nine years.
At the time, a source told Us Weekly, 'Katy and Orlando have split but are amicable,' while also adding the separation has been 'not contentious' thus far.
'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,' they said.
The Teenage Dream hitmaker - who is currently embarking on her Lifetimes Tour - was previously married to Russell Brand from 2010 until their divorce in 2012.
The insider further added the reported breakup had been 'a long time coming' and their relationship had also been 'tense for months'.
In the wake of the separation, Orlando whisked himself away to Venice to attend the star-studded nuptials between Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez this past weekend.
The actor was spotted mingling with a number of celebrities, including Kim Kardashian and Sydney Sweeney.
Orlando was also spotted living single life as he headed to another lavish party on Sunday.
He danced the night away following his recent split from fiancée Katy as a guest on the swanky superyacht alongside 450 other VIPs, including the likes of Naomi Campbell, Kendall Jenner, Sofia Vergara and Heidi Klum.
Fresh from three days partying at Jeff and Lauren's Venice wedding extravaganza, Orlando headed on board Ritz-Carlton's gleaming 794ft Luminara for its inaugural cruise from Rome.
On board, Orlando was spotted dancing behind a glamorous partygoer as they were treated to an intimate Ellie Goulding gig.
The actor first sparked up a romance with Katy in early 2016 - and he later popped the big question in 2019. They welcomed their daughter Daisy in 2020.
Orlando was previously married to supermodel Miranda Kerr from 2010 until their divorce was finalised in 2013.
The former couple are also parents to son Flynn, 14.

Collingwood captain Darcy Moore's ABC radio star girlfriend explains what a 'femcel' is - and why some men refuse to believe such women exist
Collingwood captain Darcy Moore's ABC radio star girlfriend explains what a 'femcel' is - and why some men refuse to believe such women exist Dee Salmin and Pip Rasmussen have delved into the meaning of the term femcel They also spoke on the difference between femcels and incels on The Hook Up Dee Salmin and Pip Rasmussen have delved into the meaning of the term 'femcel' on Triple J's The Hook Up podcast and have opened up a discussion on why some men have refused to believe women who identify as such exist. According to the Collins English Dictionary, the word femcel is used to describe a woman who is 'frustrated by a lack of opportunities to have sexual relationships.' Speaking during an episode of The Hook Up podcast, the radio presenters analysed the difference between femcels and incels, noting that many femcels do not blame other people for their celibacy, rather, they choose to blame themselves. They noted that this is different to what some perceive an incel to be, with the podcasters saying that incels tend to blame others for being involuntarily celebrate. An incel is described by the Collins English Dictionary as 'someone, usually a man, who believes that they are unfairly deprived of opportunities to have sex. Incel is short for involuntary or involuntarily celibate.' The Anti-Defamation League also adds that incels are typically 'heterosexual men who blame women and society for their lack of romantic success'. Dee Salmin (left) and Pip Rasmussen (right) have delved into into the meaning of the term 'femcel' on Triple J's The Hook Up podcast Salmin, who is dating Collingwood player Darcy Moore, opened up on the definition of femcel, stating that it was a female It adds that the 'incel ideology is rooted in the belief that women have too much power in the sexual or romantic sphere and ruin incels' lives by rejecting them.' Salmin said: 'Even the journey from the beginning of incel, to then women and fems have to create a whole new term to describe what they're experiencing because they can't use incel any more. 'It's not boy sober because they are not purposefully taking a break from dating or relationships, they are genuinely wanting that but cannot get it. 'Now incels' reactions to the term femcel - they refuse to believe it even exists. They've invalidated a term that was created by a woman in the first place.' Rasmussen added: 'In an incel's mind, they're like: "By default, because you're a woman, you could get sex. You just need to lower your standards".' 'And guys were DMing us saying this,' Salmin replied. 'Being like: "I don't believe femcels exist because women can have sex with whoever they want".' The pair read out some comments sent in by people who listen to the show, with one person writing: 'I guarantee you that incels have fewer opportunities than femcels. The average guy, which would be two-to-the-most average women, is far less likely to have high requirements than a female equivalent.' Salmin then went on to say: 'I think the difference might be these incels might view sex through the lens of, "I'm owed sex" or "I have a right to women's bodies and therefore I have a right to sex". Salmin delved into the difference between incels and femcels stating that many incels do not believe that the term femcel exists 'Where is, what we've been saying, is femcels don't perceive men in the same way. 'So when they're saying: "I'm not having sex," they don't mean like: "I'm going to go have sex with a sex worker". They mean: "There is no one that I feel safe enough or connect with enough to have sex with". Of course, if they wanted to they could go see a sex worker. She added: 'But I think with a lot of the femcels... going through why a lot of people are identifying as femcels, the sex they want to have is with someone they feel safe with and want to connect with.' In their investigations on the topic on social media, Salmin found that in Reddit forums that featured discussions around the subjects of incels there was 'a lot of anger and a lot of blame'. She then turned her attention to some of the forums that many femcels use stating: 'For the femcels there was a lot of people trying to uplift each other. I saw a lot of people telling each other: "Have you tried doing this?" She added that many were: 'Just trying to uplift each other and give each other advice. It comes as researchers from Swansea Univerity and the University of Texas at Austin have been conducting studies on 561 incels from the UK and US to ascertain the key characteristics that incels might share. The surprising results suggested that many incels have a history of being bullied and have poor mental health. Dr Andrew Thomas, a psychologist at Swansea University, says: 'If we had to point to their most consistent characteristics, it would be incredibly poor mental health and their feelings of bitterness, frustration, and disdain towards women—though even these show variation within the sample.' More than a third of those studied suffered from moderate depression or anxiety. Concerns have arisen in recent years following an alarming number of mass murders around the world that were linked to incel ideologies.

My night at the museum … for an ‘adult sleepover', with lots of dinosaurs and no kids allowed
It's about 1.30am and I've just heard a spooky noise – the sort of noise that would usually send me shooting out of bed with a torch and baseball bat to investigate my no doubt impending doom. Fortunately, on this occasion I am not alone in my flat but surrounded by 39 other nerds sleeping (relatively) soundly in the Dinosaur Walk at Melbourne Museum. The source of the noise is a nearby tawny frogmouth. I'm at the second ever grownups' (note: not 'adults only') sleepover at Melbourne Museum, following in the footsteps of the brave children who have gone before us. The UK's Natural History Museum, the American Museum of Natural History in New York and Sydney's Australian Museum have all hosted grownup sleepovers, but this is new for Melbourne: BYO pillow, sleeping bag and torch, and go bananas after dark while recapturing your childhood. Judging by the assembled crowd, more than a handful are here to live their Night at the Museum dreams. It's here I must make a confession: my deeply millennial reference for this kind of adventure is not the beloved Ben Stiller vehicle, but the 1987 ABC anthology series Kaboodle, which included a story where a bunch of kids get locked in a department store overnight and are forced to survive on chocolate biscuits. Sign up for the fun stuff with our rundown of must-reads, pop culture and tips for the weekend, every Saturday morning That formative viewing experience, coupled with roughly 43% of my childhood being spent at Melbourne Museum, makes me an easy mark for this type of adventure. However, I am also a certifiable over-preparer, so come 6pm I march into the museum lugging a giant bag of extra blankets and 'just in case' layers, sleeping bag strapped to my back. I look like I'm either planning to move in, or climb a mountain. Some of my fellow sleepover-ers are already in PJs (dinosaur print the choice de nuit), some are dressed snappily, and pretty much everyone is just about vibrating at the thought of wandering around the museum by torchlight and bedding down beneath Mamenchisaurus. We have a packed dance card ahead of us: a torchlight tour of the Dinosaur Walk and Horridus the Triceratops, the Lego Star Wars exhibition, jaffles and games, a movie at the adjoining Imax, then bedtime – before a hot breakfast and a mindful walk through the Forest Gallery. The Dinosaur Walk sounds like the perfect time to impress everyone with my replica Hawkins National Laboratory Stranger Things flashlight! (Guys? Guys …?) I quickly realise that almost everyone else attending has come with a friend, partner or parent. Will this adventure become a high school trauma immersion experience as I hang out on the fringes of the sleepover like a shag on a rock? (Earnest suggestion for museums: a sleepover for singles, solos and loners!) Happily, the answer is 'no' – but as we make our way into the Lego Star Wars exhibit, I can't say the same for my long-buried frustration at not having developed 'Lego autism'. After 20 minutes of sweating, frowning and swearing, I manage to put together a snazzy-looking lightsaber hilt, only for it to disintegrate all over the floor just as I step in front of the augmented reality camera to take a photo of my masterpiece. My energy in that moment is not dissimilar from that video of the man breaking a one-of-a-kind wax cylinder on live television. Unlike nearly every sleepover I attended in my youth, I manage to hold off tears: it's jaffle time. Tonight we're watching F1, which I am not mad about, given that in 1994 I replaced my dinosaur special interest with a Formula One hyperfocus, and can monologue at length about Imax technology. The F1 nuts awaiting the 9.15pm session look on with vague bemusement at the gang of loungewear-clad nerds eating toasties in the bar. Sign up to Saved for Later Catch up on the fun stuff with Guardian Australia's culture and lifestyle rundown of pop culture, trends and tips after newsletter promotion We stumble out of the cinema after midnight and are ushered back to the Dinosaur Walk, where our beds have been set up. Suddenly, overcome in much the same way I was aged seven when we saw Dinosaurs Alive at Questacon, I realise that sleeping under a dinosaur skeleton might be a little overwhelming. In a performance not unlike my dog making herself more comfortable under my desk, I drag my single mattress towards Dynamic Earth and into an alcove where – resisting the urge to stage whisper 'SHH!! MUM'S COMING!!' – I quickly fall into a coma. In true sleepover fashion, after a comically short sleep we're awoken at 6.30am for breakfast in the cafe, which would be exciting enough were it not for the fact that the museum's BABY TRICERATOPS will be joining us. In the tenor of a five-year-old, I ask, 'Is it real??' The kindly museum worker, clearly used to the effect the puppet has on people, gently replies, 'What do you think?' Eventually 9am rolls around and, lugging my gear down into the car park, I experience a sort of reverse-Narnia effect as the years pile back on: I'm no longer a dino-mad child but a 43-year-old who can't handle a sub-eight-hour sleep like I used to. But as I drive home I think about the Apollo astronauts who, in the documentary In the Shadow of the Moon, said they had lived on the moon for three days, as if it were a prior address. Hey, remember that time I lived at the museum?
