Orlando Bloom reportedly ‘unapologetically' flirting with women months before Katy Perry split

News.com.au7 hours ago
Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom secretly parted ways earlier this year — and reports reveal that Bloom was acting very single in Miami just months ago.
A source tells Page Six the Pirates of the Caribbean actor was in Miami, Florida, flirting with women on a recent trip.
'Orlando was definitely with girls in Miami,' says a source.
'He's been not subtly out and about,' according to our source, who called Bloom's flirting 'unapologetic.'
And another source tells the outlet that the couple had parted ways long before that.
The star was in Miami on April 9 to celebrate the launch of a new MSC cruise ship. We hear he was also there during the Miami Grand Prix, which ran May 2 to May 4, along with celebs like Timothée Chalamet and Tom Brady.
Reps for Bloom and Perry issued the following statement to Page Six, confirming '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.'
On June 10, Page Six exclusively reported that the couple's relationship was done.
'It's over,' a source told Page Six. 'They are waiting 'til her tour is over before they split.'
Perry is on her Lifetimes tour that began on April 23 and runs through December 7.
But on June 24, TMZ reported that Bloom was heading to Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's Italian wedding as a single man.
The actor and the Firework singer first met in 2016 at a Golden Globes after-party.
They got engaged on Valentine's Day in 2019, and welcomed daughter Daisy Dove in August 2020.
Sources previously told People that stress over the poor reception for Perry's new album, 143, had caused 'tension' in the relationship.
'Katy was deeply frustrated following the reception of her new album,' a source told the outlet. 'It made her very stressed. Orlando was understanding, but it did cause some tension.'
On Wednesday, Bloom took to Instagram Stories to repost a carousel of quotes from Swiss psychiatrist and psychotherapist Carl Jung.
'Loneliness does not come from having no people about one, but from being unable to communicate that seem important to oneself,' one quote read, which was originally shared via the Instagram account @SAPIENKIND.
Another cryptic quote said, 'Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.'
The pair previously split for a year in 2017.
Page Six reported that at Bezos' wedding, single Bloom was having a great time.
'He was partying hard,' said a source, jokingly adding, 'and sweaty.'

Chilling confessions of celebrity psychic John Edward

He's one of the most successful psychic mediums of all time. A man who — during a career spanning more than 30 years — has captivated audiences globally, thanks to his hit TV show Crossing Over, numerous best-selling books and a string of sellout stage shows around the world. During this time John Edward has brought a fresh, honest and thought provoking attitude to the world of psychic phenomena, as well as becoming the go-to psychic for some of Hollywood's biggest names, from Oprah to Kim Kardashian. And while he's the poster boy for psychics now, when he was first told that he had these otherworldly abilities, John was the ultimate cynic. A reluctant teenage psychic Raised on Long Island, New York, signs of John's abilities were apparent from an early age with family members often remarking on his uncanny knowledge of past events and family history. 'When I had the reading that put me on my path I thought the woman was crazy,' he tells 'I didn't even have any interest in the subject, whatsoever. 'In fact, I was a cynic — the biggest! My dad was a military guy and this was not something that he was a fan of, so I adopted some of his condescending, sarcastic manner towards it. 'I was the one heckling and pulling apart the readings that I'd see at my grandma's house.' However, after accepting his gift and honing it, John soon realised that — in addition to being psychic — he could also talk to the dead. 'That part kicked in two years later around the age of 17,' he says of his medium abilities. 'I had a very vivid premonition about my uncle passing — he was only 52 at the time. I remember trying to stop it and I couldn't, which was my first experience of realising that I can't stop what I know is going to happen. 'Right before he passed, I started to get many names during readings and I gradually realised that these names belonged to people who were all dead. I didn't understand what was happening, but it was like a switch had been flicked on.' Working with the FBI John published his first book in 1998 and then, three short years later, he was catapulted to stardom via his Crossing Over TV show, which was broadcast to millions. But away from the bright lights of the TV studio and the glossy magazines that interviewed him, the psychic had a secret sideline: he was helping FBI agent, Bob Hilland, solve cold cases. 'In 1998 this FBI guy came to me under the guise of a case,' he recalls. 'In reality he had heard me on local radio, which I was on a lot. 'And it used to anger him that they were giving me airtime because he felt that I wasn't legitimate and that I was taking advantage of people. So he took it upon himself to take me down. 'He came with a real case and, very quickly within that session, I was able to give him accurate information on the case that I couldn't have possibly have known. 'I then I wound up reading for him and I gave him information that he didn't know about his own actual family.' What followed was a working relationship that spanned more than 25 years and numerous cases. 'Bob would call me up and say something like: 'I'm working on a case and there's a woman that's missing.'' he explains. 'And that's all he would give me. And then my spirit guides would come in and they would give me information.' Catching a killer While the pair collaborated across many cases it was the infamous 'John Smith' murders that would come to define their time together. Committed by John David Smith III — who was convicted in 2001 for the murder of his first wife whose dismembered remains were found in a box and later indicted for the murder of his second wife — he murders were unsolved for decades until John began to assist on the case. And it's this investigation that is being charted in a new book co-authored between John and Bob entitled, Chasing Evil. 'I'm only telling people now as enough time has passed that my life will no longer be threatened by some of the people connected to the cases,' says John. 'Those people are behind bars now.' Slated for release in September, the book reveals for the first time how a sceptical FBI agent reached out to a famous psychic for help on the baffling case. But, when it comes to his technique for psychic sleuthing, how does it work? 'When I'm in the zone I've already meditated, prayed and put myself in the position of protecting my energy psychically, then spirits will give me words, thoughts, images and feelings,' John explains of the process. 'It's kind of like a psychic sign language — I have to put the pieces together and figure out what the message is. 'Bob would call me and say, for example: 'okay, I'm going to be doing the polygraph on this case — give me the insights that's going to help break the guy,'' he says. 'I am very clear: I didn't solve anything. Bob solved his cases. All I did was give him insights and how he worked with those insights helped him to successfully gain outcomes. 'I hope that this book gives people the window into possibilities so that if there are other psychics or mediums or people out there that can utilise their abilities to help law enforcement, it'll be taken with credibility and serious and seriously.' The downsides of the gift As you might expect, being immersed in the disturbing world of crime and killers can take its toll. 'When you're navigating a serial killer case and you're being taken on a journey of a timeline of what's happened you get a window into the mind of someone that can do something so pathologically dark,' he admits. 'It shows you, or showed me, the malleability of the human personality when they're that twisted. I wouldn't say that it's a dark energy … I would say that it's more of a pathology. Like these are people that are broken. These are people that have psychologically or physiologically have something pathologically wrong with them to be able to do some of the things that they've done.' As the original 'celebrity psychic' John faced 'stress, accusations and death threats' during his small screen heyday. But, despite decades having passed since calling time on Crossing Over, the psychic says that he's still guarded in his personal life. 'I'm still very guarded,' he admits. 'My family circle is very tight knit, which tends to lead to anxiety about this book coming out because I don't want any retaliatory stuff coming at me. So that's exactly where the core anxiety is coming from. You know, I've seen too much. I know too much.' Gearing up for an Australian tour Away from the limelight and fanfare, John's real life mission is helping grieving people across the world by bringing messages of comfort and hope from their departed loved ones through his global tours. And at the top of his list is Australia. 'My love of Australia is no secret,' he says. 'It's my favourite destination and I can't wait to get back there. I almost felt like I'm cheating on my country,' he chuckles. 'Because I have such a feeling of being connected here. The intersection with the audience is amazing in Australia — the energy here and the community vibe is so unique.' His most terrifying encounter As John's tour of Australia is in the midst of spooky season our chat turns to Halloween — and the related ghosts, ghouls and things that go bump in the night. Turns out, despite the fact that the celebrity psychic has made a career out of talking to the dead, it doesn't mean that he isn't scared of spooks. 'In my 30 years of doing this, I've only had one experience where I truly believe the house as haunted,' he says. 'In 1987, my cousin moved from the city to the same suburb as me. I remember the first time I went to his new house, I arrived needing the bathroom and my cousin told me to use one downstairs as there was construction going on elsewhere. 'I went into the room and literally had performance anxiety — I couldn't pee! I felt like I had four people watching me, all of whom wanted me to leave. 'That was just the beginning. Weird stuff started to happen in the house: noises at night, glass breaking, things moving. You could write a book on our experiences. During my last visit, I was alone and I remember sitting down near the fireplace and looking at a battery-operated musical clown ornament. I picked it up and saw that there were no batteries in it. Anyway, seconds after putting it down, the clown started to play music. I ran out of there and told my cousin that I wouldn't be coming back!'

Julian McMahon's final public exchange with lookalike daughter comes to light in wake of his death

Julian McMahon's last public exchange with his lookalike daughter has come to light in the wake of his death from cancer, aged 56. In sweet messages documented on Instagram, the Aussie actor showed his support for his only child, Madison Elizabeth, who he shares with ex-wife and former Baywatch star Brooke Burns. 'Taught my first yoga class today. I guess dreams do come true,' Madison, 25, had written on Instagram in March, alongside a video of herself in yoga class. Ever the supportive father, McMahon – who died on Thursday following a private cancer battle – couldn't help but leave a gushing message to congratulate her new career as a yoga teacher at a studio in Miami. 'Your awesome!!!!!' he commented, to which she playfully replied while correcting his typo, 'no YOU'RE awesome.' Another loving public exchange between the pair came in 2023, when she lost her beloved childhood dog, Sandy. 'To the best puppy there is and ever was, my love for you is infinite Sandy. I will forever be missing you until we meet again,' she captioned a tribute post at the time. McMahon – who is the son of late former Australian Prime Minister Sir William McMahon and his late wife Lady Sonia McMahon – expressed his gratitude for Sandy, writing, 'Love. That's it! Right there. Thank you!' The actor split from Madison's mother in 2001, one year after their daughter's birth. He went on to marry former model and children's book author Kelly Paniagua in 2014 after 11 years of dating. It was Kelly who shared the sad news of his passing in a statement with Deadline. 'With an open heart, I wish to share with the world that my beloved husband, Julian McMahon, died peacefully this week after a valiant effort to overcome cancer,' she said in a statement to the outlet. 'Julian loved life. He loved his family. He loved his friends. He loved his work, and he loved his fans. His deepest wish was to bring joy into as many lives as possible. 'We ask for support during this time to allow our family to grieve in privacy. And we wish for all of those to whom Julian brought joy, to continue to find joy in life. We are grateful for the memories.' McMahon was also briefly married to pop star and singer Dannii Minogue from 1994 to 1995. The pair first met when he starred on the Aussie soap Home and Away in 1991. After McMahon made the move to the US, he achieved success on shows such as Profiler, Charmed and Nip/Tuck, which scored him a Golden Globe nomination. He also starred on the big screen in films such as Fantastic Four, Paranoia and Swinging Safari, which starred his former sister-in-law Kylie Minogue.
