Who needs alone time after a breakup? Not Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom, apparently.
Despite recently announcing that they were transitioning their relationship into a co-parenting partnership, the ex-couple surprised everyone by vacationing together on Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’s honeymoon.
Yes, you read that right—Katy, Orlando, and their daughter Daisy Dove were spotted living it up on a luxury superyacht with the newlyweds in the Mediterranean.
Breakup or not, this family seems in no rush to create distance.
Post-Split Bonding on a Superyacht
Although they just confirmed the end of their romantic relationship, Katy and Orlando looked anything but distant.
The 40-year-old singer and her 48-year-old actor ex appeared relaxed and affectionate aboard Bezos’ massive yacht, with their 4-year-old daughter Daisy right by their side.
The Mediterranean outing was a bold move considering it essentially meant gatecrashing Bezos and Sánchez’s honeymoon.
Katy, who missed the couple’s $50 million Venice wedding due to her Australian tour schedule, seemed to be making up for it in a big way.
Orlando’s Star-Studded Wedding Weekend
While Katy was on tour, Orlando had a ball at the Bezos wedding.
The actor was seen socializing with the likes of Tom Brady, Leonardo DiCaprio, Kim Kardashian, and even shared some cozy moments with newly-single Sydney Sweeney—and later, model Vittoria Ceretti.
Despite the party-hopping, Orlando seemed thrilled to be back with his family, especially when he was photographed tossing Daisy into the air and showering her with kisses as Katy looked on.
The Split That Was a Long Time Coming
The buzz around Katy and Orlando’s split started swirling weeks ago.
They finally confirmed it recently, stating that they’d been slowly shifting into co-parents over the past several months.
“Their shared priority is—and always will be—raising their daughter with love, stability, and mutual respect,” reps told DailyMail.com.
Although the breakup appears amicable, sources say it wasn’t sudden.
Tensions had reportedly been building for months, with one insider revealing, “This has been a long time coming.”
Tears, Instagram Quotes, and Distance
The emotional toll has been evident. During her Lifetimes Tour stop in Adelaide, Katy held back tears on stage and thanked Australian fans for their support.
It wasn’t the first time she got emotional either—she had previously broken down while singing “Pearl” in Mexico City.
Orlando, meanwhile, took to Instagram with cryptic quotes about loneliness and sadness.
One post referenced Carl Jung, reading, “Loneliness does not come from having no people… but from being unable to communicate…”
Living Apart and Renting Out the Mansion
Two days before they confirmed the breakup, reports emerged that Katy and Orlando were renting out their lavish $30 million Montecito home—to none other than Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger.
The couple had also reportedly been living apart since Katy’s tour kicked off in April.
They’ve been through ups and downs before, having started dating in 2016, broken up in 2017, then reuniting and getting engaged in 2019.
They welcomed Daisy in 2020, but clearly, things had been cooling off for a while.
Past Milestones and Political Messages
In 2021, the couple made a rare onscreen appearance together in Transmissions From The Future, a political short film where they played older versions of themselves warning future generations to save democracy.
They even gave a sweet shoutout to baby Daisy.
It was one of those rare public collaborations, especially since they mostly kept their relationship out of the spotlight.
The Album, the Tour, and the Emotional Fallout
While fans speculated about their relationship status, another stressor was reportedly weighing on Katy—her latest album 143.
Critics were unimpressed, with some saying it sounded like it was “AI-generated.”
The disappointing reception, paired with mixed tour reviews, created friction between her and Orlando.
“She was deeply frustrated,” one source said. “Orlando was supportive, but it definitely caused tension.”
Career Pressure and Emotional Strain
Katy’s year has been a whirlwind. Leaving American Idol, a disappointing album launch, space mission drama, and a tour underperforming—all reportedly left her stressed and emotionally drained.
“There aren’t many people she can dump her emotions on,” said a source. “But obviously she could with Orlando.”
Yet with his own busy schedule and parenting duties, Orlando had his hands full too.
The pressure took a toll, and eventually, something had to give.
What Comes Next?
Though their romantic chapter seems closed, Katy and Orlando are determined to remain a strong co-parenting team.
Whether they’re sailing the Mediterranean or splitting time between shows and movie sets, one thing is clear—they’re keeping Daisy at the center of it all.
As for rekindling romance? It seems unlikely for now, but if history has taught us anything about these two, it’s that nothing is ever totally off the table.
