Meanwhile, sources told People that Perry’s disappointment over the reception of her latest album, '143', has created friction.
“Katy was deeply frustrated following the reception of her new album,” one source told the outlet. “It made her very stressed. Orlando was understanding, but it did cause some tension.”

The source added that some tour reviews have also weighed heavily on Katy Perry.
“She was also disappointed in some of the tour reviews. It’s put stress on their relationship," added the source.
Perry faced significant trolling following her Blue Origin space flight in April, which featured an all-female crew sponsored by Jeff Bezos, whose fiancee, Lauren Sanchez, was also a crew member.
The publication also reported that Bloom had been spending time in Miami, Florida, last month, further fueling speculation about their rocky relationship.

She added, "We are fire, fire, fire, and so [Daisy] sees all of that. He’s a real sage. We both have parts of ourselves."
She said, "When the ego is running the show, then it’s like, ‘Whoa.’ But when that‘s in check, then we’re both something else.”

Orlando Bloom's ‘really challenging’ moments with Katy Perry
In 2023, Orlando Bloom talked about the differences between them in Flaunt magazine.
“We’re in two very different pools [for their work]. Her pool is not a pool that I necessarily understand, and I think my pool is not a pool that she necessarily understands,” he said.
“Sometimes things are really, really, really, challenging. I won’t lie. We definitely battle with our emotions and creativity,” Bloom continued.
Despite the contrasting nature of their personalities, Bloom and Perry bond over the uniqueness of their relationship.
“I think we’re both aware of how blessed we are to have uniquely connected in the way that we did at the time that we did. And there’s definitely never a dull moment," Bloom told the magazine.
