Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom are reportedly entering make-or-break talks following an extended period of living apart, with mounting speculation about the state of their nearly decade-long relationship.
After weeks of performing across Australia, the 40-year-old pop star is reportedly planning a return to the couple's Montecito, California, home for the July 4 holiday, reuniting with Bloom and their daughter, Daisy Dove. The pair has spent much of the past year living separate lives due to work obligations, an arrangement that has taken a visible toll.
"They both love each other, but they have been living different lives for at least a year and in different mindsets," a source told The Sun.
Work, Distance, and Disruption
Perry has been on the road since April for her "Lifetimes" Tour, with the final Australian stop set for June 30 in Adelaide. Meanwhile, Bloom recently joined Daisy in Perth, where he was seen strolling with her downtown ahead of Perry's performance. The pop star was not present for the outing.
The split has caused the "biggest disruption" to the family's normal rhythm, according to the publication. Once grounded by a consistent home life, the couple now grapples with long-distance relationships, conflicting schedules, and competing priorities.
"She has mentioned jetting back from Australia to spend time with Orlando, Daisy, her sister Angela, and her kids," the insider added. "They have barely been together for a decent amount of time, without distractions, for many, many months."
Perry's spring appearance on Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin flight also stirred conflict, with reports suggesting Bloom did not support her decision to participate despite showing up in Texas with Daisy to support the launch.
Despite the swirling talk, those insiders say the door is not closed.
"No one has decided it's definitely the end of the road for Katy and Orlando," the source said, mentioning the singer's unwillingness to give up.
"There is still a huge amount of love between them," they continued. "Anyone in long-term relationships goes through challenges... couples reconnect and make things work."
