Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom Are Taking a ‘Respectful, Loving Space’ from Their Relationship
Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have called it quits.
This week marked the end of their once-blooming relationship. The pair parted ways after about 10 months of dating.
A statement to WHO from both of their reps reads, “Before rumours or falsifications get out of hand, we can confirm that Orlando and Katy are taking respectful, loving space at this time.”
The two stars were recently seen at the annual Vanity Fair Oscars party on Sunday after weeks of jet-setting travels apart.
The two continued their tradition of only posing together inside events, and cozied up for the camera – Perry in a shimmering, bronze gown and still sporting her platinum locks and Bloom in a dapper black tux.
However, an onlooker tells WHO the duo didn’t haven’t much interaction aside from posing for the photo together and mainly mingled with their own friends.
“Katy didn’t spend much time with Orlando,” says the source. “They got together for a photo, but that was about it.”
Perry and Bloom, 39, seemed to be doing well — Bloom celebrated Perry’s 32nd birthday with her back in October at the singer’s 1950s-themed bash. The pair even went all out for Halloween with the singer transforming herself into Hillary Clinton while Bloom dressed up as a cartoonish Donald Trump.
Bloom even shared an Instagram video of himself and Perry at Burning Man in September.
The two spent some time apart bac in November, though, with Perry campaigning for Clinton in the fall while Bloom has been in Shanghai, China, filming Smart Chase: Fire & Earth.
The pair began dating back in January with a source telling WHO then that they looked “very happy.”They grew closer throughout the years, with a source telling PEOPLE in August: “[Bloom] would love to settle down with Katy and have more kids.”
At one point in time, signs pointed to a lasting relationship — a source told WHO in August that the love birds were headed toward an engagement.
“[Bloom] always gushes about Katy and thinks she is amazing in a million ways,” the source said. “He would love to settle down with Katy and have more kids. He hasn’t been this serious about a girl since Miranda [Kerr].”
Kerr and Bloom, parents to 5-year-old Flynn, divorced in 2013 after three years of marriage. Perry began dating John Mayer in 2012 and had an on-again, off-again relationship with the singer until she began dating Bloom.
The new year has taken both Perry and Bloom overseas, with Bloom just returned from a UNICEF mission to Diffa, the southeast region of Niger. In late January, Bloom also visited a high school in Greater Manchester, England, to visit a drama class with his own former teacher.
