Orlando Bloom Was ‘Tired’ of Consoling Katy Perry Ahead of Split, Says ‘Source’

One of the factors in Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry‘s split was reportedly a lack of support from him. Reports previously mentioned that the singer’s series of setbacks, including the “143” album reception, The Lifetimes World Tour, and space trip criticism, caused tensions in their relationship. Sources recently claimed that Bloom was “sympathetic,” but only to a certain point. He then seemingly grew “tired” of constantly consoling Perry before their breakup.

Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry were living separate lives ahead of split, says ‘source’

Star exclusively learned that Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry were living separate lives before their split. A source disclosed a slew of factors, including their “tightly wound” romance, which seemingly turned their nine-year-long relationship “toxic.” Perry and Bloom had reportedly “started to bicker,” and it became “worse” and “borderline toxic.” After her “American Idol” exit, Perry underwent intense criticism, which “rattled” her and the “pressure bled into her home life.”

In the meantime, the actor was going through “a creative rut.” The insider claimed that he has “been hustling hard for a hit movie after a quiet few years.” Eventually, the combined stress got to them, reaching a point where they started “living separate lives.” The ex-couple went for “large chunks of time without communicating” because of the rising tensions. Rumor is that Bloom even thought Perry’s trip to space with the Blue Origin crew “was a bad idea.”

The representatives for Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry confirmed their split weeks after breakup rumors surfaced. On July 3, their reps addressed their separation in a joint statement to Us Weekly, revealing that they are prioritizing co-parenting their daughter, Daisy Dove Bloom. Amid the buzz, Bloom went solo to Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’s Venetian wedding last month while Perry completed the Australian leg of The Lifetimes World Tour.
