Orlando Bloom snapped cosying up to mystery woman days after Katy Perry split
Lord of the Rings actor Orlando Bloom has been seen with a mystery woman as he left the first party ahead of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's lavish wedding celebrations Orlando Bloom has been mingling away as he celebrates Jeff Bezos' upcoming wedding fresh from his reported split from fiancée Katy Perry. The actor, 48, is said to be "flying solo" at the high-profile event in Venice as the Amazon boss and soon-to-be wife Lauren Sanchez's wedding kicks off. In what could be a tough time for Orlando in the romantic Italian city, it seems he has been keeping his spirits high as he headed to a lavish pre-wedding bash. He was seen leaving the exclusive do with women and other guests before departing on a water taxi. While inside the vehicle, he was seen getting close and chatty with one mystery woman. Orlando looked smart in a beige trouser and blazer combo over a loosely buttoned white shirt as he managed to keep a smile on his face. His appearance comes just hours after reports he has split from pop star Katy, 40, after nine years together. They have faced speculation over their relationship in recent weeks, with reports of "make or break talks". The pair, who share four-year-old daughter Daisy, have not confirmed the split – but Orlando's solo appearance at Bezos' nuptials are a big hint. Earlier on his trip to Venice without Katy, Orlando was spotted flashing a peace sign to onlookers as he hopped on a boat. Jeff and Lauren's three-day wedding extravaganza kicked off on Thursday with guests to include Mick Jagger, Kim Kardashian and Leonardo DiCaprio. Orlando's solo appearance comes following reports that he is "now a single man." A source told TMZ:"He's the life of the party and he's gonna hit the dance floor hard!" Speaking to US Weekly, another source said: "Katy and Orlando have split but are amicable." They added that the split is "not contentious" at the moment and said that Katy - who had been onboard Bezos' Blue Origin space flight in April - is "upset". The source said: "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." It was further claimed by the source that the split was "a long time coming," with things said to have been "tense" between them for months. The guest list for the glitzy wedding is rumoured to include stars like Oprah Winfrey, Bill Gates, Salma Hayek Pinault, Sir Elton John, and Lady Gaga. Sánchez, meanwhile, is said to be organising her nuptials like "every other bride" and teased on the Today show last year: "I have to say, I do have a Pinterest." However, the couple's extravagant wedding plans have reportedly been derailed as local protestors disrupted the city. They have been compelled to change their wedding venue after residents of threatened to fill the historic canals with inflatable crocodiles. It has been reported that guests were originally set to celebrate at the 16th-century Scuola Grande della Misericordia. Now, the 61-year-old billionaire is now thought to have opted for the Arsenale, which is considered a more secure location away from the city centre, instead.

‘It's not even round': Today show host labels new western Sydney roundabout ‘Australia's worst' as councillor seeks investigation
A 'shocking' western Sydney roundabout has been dubbed 'Australia's worst roundabout' by a Today show host after it was revealed the new intersection is shaped like a diamond. The installation was part of a bid to improve traffic congestion across Austral, with a Liverpool Council petition receiving more than 2000 signatures calling for urgent upgrades, but footage suggests conditions have worsened in the area. The video, released by the Today show, shows multiple drivers struggling to navigate the oddly shaped roundabout, which connects Fifteenth Avenue and Twenty Eighth Avenue. One car can be seen doing a three-point turn, while another cuts across the intersection, narrowly avoiding colliding with a third car. Today show host Karl Stefanovic dubbed it 'Australia's worst roundabout.' The intersection has been further criticised by councillors, Liverpool Mayor Ned Mannoun declaring council will be 'putting the round back into roundabout.' 'The staff responsible have made some design changes that they intend on implementing as soon as possible,' he said. 'No one applied common sense.' Appearing on the Today show as he attends the Australian Local Government Conference in Canberra, councillor Peter Ristevski said he has had 'every single councillor that's here in Australia rip into me about our roundabout." 'It's quite embarrassing,' he said. 'I've asked for an investigation into this, and in particular what it's going to cost us to rectify this.' 'My inbox last night was bombarded with over 200 to 300 responses saying, 'what is going on, you guys can't even build a roundabout?.' Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and Premier Chris Minns pledged $1 billlion in January to upgrade Fifteenth Avenue. It's understood no accidents have occurred at the roundabout, despite its dangerous appearance. Frustrated locals have taken to social media to express their disappointment. 'You would think that someone should have stopped for a second and thought 'that's a stupid roundabout, it's not even round',' one said. 'I can tell you with firsthand experience, it's shocking. Most people struggle with a normal roundabout, this just melts people's brains as they approach it,' said another.
