Katy Perry Reveals Her “Mood” Amid Orlando Bloom Breakup
Katy Perry is smiling through it all.
Amid her breakup with Orlando Bloom after nine years—and one day after he arrived in Italy by himself for the wedding of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez—Katy shared insight into her current headspace with the help of one of Australia’s cutest animals.
The “Roar” singer is currently on her Lifetimes tour down under, where she got the chance to meet a quokka—a famously smiley little furball.
And in her June 27 Instagram carousel, Katy smiled widely alongside one of the animals, captioning the post, “Mood: Quokka.”
Elsewhere in the carousel, Katy danced on a beach to classical music in one clip and played off the name of the Australian island she was currently visiting, Rottnest Island, in another. As she said while on a boat ride with friends, “Lifetimes tour on Rottnest Island! Where our brain rot runs free!”
Also joining the 40-year-old was her and Orlando’s 4-year-old daughter Daisy Dove, who could be seen sitting in the captain’s seat of the boat and riding behind her mom in a wagon as Katy pulled her on a bike and said, “We are on Rottnest Island with Daisy Dove.”
In the comments section of the post was bride-to-be Lauren, who wrote of Katy’s absence at her wedding to the Amazon founder, “We miss you Katy.”
And indeed, Katy is on her Lifetimes tour in Australia the same weekend as the nuptials, preventing her from attending the lavish celebration, which has caused a stir in the water-bound Venice.
So far, neither Katy nor Orlando have spoken publicly about their breakup, however eagle-eyed fans suspected the split news was forthcoming after the former couple hadn’t been seen together since Katy’s space flight with Lauren in April.
But while the former American Idol judge can’t be in Italy to see Lauren walk down the aisle, Katy was able to attend the 55-year-old’s bachelorette party in Paris in May, where they were also joined by Hollywood’s Eva Longoria, Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner.
During the excursion, the group enjoyed rooftop drinks in view of the Eiffel Tower and a lavish Parisian dinner.
Lauren wrote of the trip on Instagram, “Forever starts with friendship, surrounded by the women who’ve lifted me up, illuminated my path in dark times, and shaped my heart along the way.”

Days later, when pictures surfaced of Bloom and Selena Gomez in Las Vegas together, Perry shut down infidelity speculation.
As she tweeted at the time, "Instead of giving energy & eyeballs to dumb conspiracy, check out how cool this is," along with a link to an article about the actor's charity work. Perry's message received a stamp of approval from Gomez, who retweeted the post.
That same month, Perry posted her first photo of Bloom, showing the two sprawled out on the steps of the Hotel du Cap Eden-Rock, just miles away from the epicenter of the Cannes Film Festival.

"1 year ago today is the day my life began," Perry tweeted. "Happy first Birthday my Daisy Dove, my love."
"There's still a plan but the location is challenging," Perry shared on The Drew Barrymore Show. "I love a big celebration. I am all about big, fun, exotic, great celebrations. So, hopefully, soon."
The pair shared a kiss while at the Wimbledon Tennis Championships in London.
“Orlando and I, when we argue, we argue kinda hot and fast and then cool really quickly,” Perry told Zane Lowe during an interview with Apple Music at the time. “It’s like, ‘la la la I love you. Let’s move on.’”
Bloom and Daisy Dove were there to support Perry as she launched into space with an all-female crew.
