It’s been two months since Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom officially ended their decade-long, on-and-off relationship. The duo, who were engaged for nearly four years, share a daughter and will continue co-parenting her. A representative previously stated that Perry and Bloom will remain a family despite going their separate ways, doing so “with love, stability, and mutual respect.” Until now, Orlando hadn’t addressed the split directly, but on September 5, 2025, he spoke out during an interview on Today while promoting his new film, The Cut.
Orlando Bloom opens up about Katy Perry breakup
During the interview, host Craig Melvin asked Bloom how he was holding up amid changes in his personal life. Orlando kept it simple, without oversharing he said, “I’m great. I’m so grateful. We’ve got a beautiful daughter,” he said, referring to five-year-old Daisy Dove. He added, “You know, when you leave everything on the field, like I did in this movie? I feel grateful for all of it.” He wrapped up with, “And we’re great. We’re going to be great. Nothing but love,” speaking of his bond with Perry after the breakup. Bloom’s comment comes days after rumours suggested there might be tension between the two, after Perry was seen on multiple dates with former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
Earlier, while confirming their separation, a rep for the celebs said, “Due to the abundance of recent interest and conversation surrounding Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry’s relationship, representatives have confirmed that Orlando and Katy have been shifting their relationship over the past many months to focus on co-parenting. They will continue to be seen together as a family, as their shared priority is, and always will be, raising their daughter with love and respect.”
Perry reportedly also has a good bond with Bloom’s older son, Flynn, 14, from his previous marriage to Miranda Kerr. Miranda also recently spoke about the family situation, revealing that Katy and Orlando “were getting along well” and that they celebrated Daisy’s birthday together as “one big happy family.” Speaking on KIIS FM’s Kyle and Jackie O Show, she added, “Katy is amazing, I love her. And Orlando, obviously.” She continued, “It was important that they all keep things harmonious for the kids. If you do have animosity, it only hurts yourself.”
While Friday marked the first time Bloom directly addressed his breakup with Perry, he had been dropping hints about his thoughts and feelings for weeks via his Instagram stories. Earlier, he shared inspiring quotes about “loneliness and fining balance between happiness and sadness.” On the work front, he is focused on The Cut, a movie about an ex-boxer looking for redemption. The role demanded extreme dedication, and Bloom transformed his physique, losing 30 pounds in three months. Speaking about the process, he said it was mentally and physically draining, but ultimately rewarding.
