Are Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom heading for a split? Recent reports suggest the power couple may be experiencing significant strain in their relationship, potentially leading to a breakup after Perry concludes her current 'Lifetimes' tour. Several sources are indicating growing distance and differing priorities as key factors.
Growing Apart: Tour Stress and Career Demands
Multiple insiders have told various media outlets that Perry and Bloom have been "spending more and more time apart." One source specifically cited Perry's demanding touring schedule and the less-than-stellar reception of her latest album, '143,' as contributing to the tension. "Katy has been very busy working, and they are apart often," the source explained. "That has caused tension."
Album Reception Adds Strain
According to a source speaking to PEOPLE, Perry felt "deeply frustrated" by the reaction to her album, which was intended to be "a bold, exuberant, celebratory dance-pop album." This stress reportedly put a strain on their relationship, although Bloom was said to be understanding.
Wedding Plans on Hold?
The couple, who got engaged in 2019, have yet to set a wedding date. One source told Us Weekly that Bloom is "over it," implying a lack of progress in wedding planning. While they continue to support each other publicly, for example, by liking each other's social media posts, insiders suggest deeper issues are at play.
Future Uncertain
While neither Perry nor Bloom has publicly commented on the rumors, the consistent stream of reports paints a picture of a relationship facing challenges. Whether they can overcome these hurdles remains to be seen, but sources indicate that the coming months, particularly after Perry's tour ends in December, could be decisive.
Fans will be watching closely to see if this beloved celebrity couple can rekindle their spark or if they will ultimately choose separate paths.
