Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have reportedly ended their relationship after nearly 10 years together.
A source close to the couple told Us Weekly on Wednesday, “Katy and Orlando have split but remain amicable.”
“It’s not contentious at the moment. Katy is, of course, upset but feels relieved to avoid going through another divorce, which was the hardest time in her life.”
According to the insider, the couple’s relationship “had been tense for months,” making the breakup “a long time coming.”
The “Teenage Dream” singer — currently on her “Lifetimes” tour — has been coping with the split by staying busy with her music career.
The source also revealed that Perry is renting out her Westcott estate in Montecito, California, as she continues to travel worldwide for her performances.
“A source explained that ‘she and Orlando have always lived in their other Montecito home as their primary residence.’
The exes initially planned to make the Westcott estate their family home, but those plans have since changed. They have been living apart since Katy began her tour.”
Representatives for Perry and Bloom did not immediately respond to Page Six’s requests for comment
Earlier this month, a source told Page Six that a split was imminent.
Earlier this month, a source exclusively told us that Perry’s relationship with the Pirates of the Caribbean star was on shaky ground.
“It’s over,” the insider revealed. “They’re just waiting until her tour wraps up before making the split official.”
Another source told People that the poor reception to Perry’s latest album, 143, contributed to behind-the-scenes tension with Bloom.
“Katy was deeply frustrated by how the album was received,” the source explained. “It caused her a lot of stress. Orlando was supportive, but it still created strain in their relationship.”
Amid reports of relationship troubles, Bloom and their 4-year-old daughter, Daisy Dove, joined Perry during her concert stop in Perth, Australia, over the weekend.
Perry, 40, and Bloom, 48, first met at a Golden Globes afterparty in 2016. The Carnival Row actor proposed on Valentine’s Day in 2019, and the couple welcomed their daughter, Daisy, on August 26, 2020.
Bloom also shares a son, Flynn, with his ex-wife, model Miranda Kerr.
