Pop star Katy Perry and actor Orlando Bloom split after six-year engagement
The statement, attributed to representatives for both stars, said their priority would be raising their daughter with 'love, stability, and mutual respect'.
It comes a week after reports of the couple's break-up swirled ahead of the wedding of billionaire Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez Bezos, which Bloom attended alone. Perry has been on a world tour.
Perry, 40, and Bloom, 48, have been romantically linked since 2016. The pair split in 2017 but rekindled shortly thereafter, getting engaged on Valentine's Day in 2019, as Perry revealed during an interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
In 2020, the pair welcomed a daughter, Daisy Dove Bloom. Perry and Bloom got Unicef to announce the news on its Instagram account. Both are goodwill ambassadors for the United Nations agency for children.
Bloom and his former wife, Australian model Miranda Kerr, have a son, Flynn, who was born in 2011. Daisy is Perry's only child.
Perry, born Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson, was previously married to comedian Russell Brand.
Born and raised in California, the 13-time Grammy Award nominee helped usher in the sound of Noughties 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 US number one singles, tying a record set by Michael Jackson's 1987 album Bad.
Bloom, who is from Canterbury, is best known for his roles as the elf Legolas in The Lord Of The Rings and The Hobbit films as well as Will Turner in the Pirates of the Caribbean series.

Julian McMahon, also known for his roles in Charmed and Nip/Tuck, has died at the age of 56 following a battle with cancer. Charmed and Nip/Tuck actor Julian McMahon has died aged 56 after a private battle with cancer. He passed away in Clearwater, Florida on July 2, with his wife paying tribute to the 'beloved' Charmed star. "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," Kelly McMahon told Deadline. "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." The Australian performer, son of former Prime Minister Billy McMahon, began his journey as a model before transitioning into acting during the late 80s, reports the Mirror.

Audiences will remember him for securing his first leading television role in Ryan Murphy's Nip/Tuck, which spanned six seasons and earned him a Golden Globe nomination for portraying Dr Christian Troy. His leading man status saw him star in FBI: Most Wanted as Jess LaCroix for three seasons, before his departure in 2022. His final two film roles were as Scally in The Surfer and Chick Carlson in The Supremes at Earl's All-You-Can-Eat. This year, he also portrayed Prime Minister Stephen Roos in Netflix's The Residence.
