Katy Perry Talks About The Time She And Orlando Bloom Broke Up, And How They Got Back Together

Katy Perry got real about her rollercoaster relationship with Orlando Bloom. If you’re fuzzy on the details, let’s rewind: Katy and Orlando got together in 2016, hit the eject button a year later, and then reconnected in 2018, which led to a shiny engagement ring in 2019. Cue the swelling romantic music.

On the Call Her Daddy podcast, Katy spilled the tea on why they broke up and what brought them back together, and trust me, it’s a story full of drama, retreats, and some serious “crazy girlfriend” vibes.

Apparently, in the beginning, these two lovebirds weren’t exactly flying in the same direction. Orlando had just wrapped up a stint of celibacy (yes, you read that right—full monk mode) and was all about setting intentions and spiritual alignment. Meanwhile, Katy was fresh out of a previous relationship and had the emotional energy of someone who just finished a half-marathon while carrying a 50-pound backpack. “I need to swim in a different pond,” she explained, basically saying, “Orlando, you’re great, but I need some me time and a lot of floaties.”

And then came the plot twist: Orlando went on a retreat and, suddenly, he wasn’t playing the classic “will-they-won’t-they” game anymore. No more late-night texts of “You up?” or vague Insta stories designed to stir FOMO. And Katy? Well, she found that whole new-and-improved, emotionally available Orlando… boring. “I was like, ‘This is boring. I’m moving on,’” she said. Because who needs peace when you can have drama?

But, as fate (and rom-com screenwriters) would have it, their time apart was “really tough” and Katy ended up at the same retreat as Orlando, which she says rewired her brain and heart. Yes, apparently they both had to go on a spiritual quest to start speaking the same language—probably one where love is spelled out in Zen koans and deep breathing exercises. “I would be dead without it,” Katy said, which is a pretty intense Yelp review for a meditation retreat.

As for Orlando, he apparently got to see Katy at her absolute worst—and lived to tell the tale. “I showed him the craziest b-tch he’s ever seen,” Katy declared, clearly confident that Orlando had survived a final boss-level of relationship chaos. And his response? “Not shook.” That’s right, the man didn’t flinch. He passed the test with flying colors and thus secured his status as Katy’s eternal “baby daddy.” Because, let’s face it, if you can survive the Category 5 storm of Katy’s “worst self,” you’re basically invincible.

Oh, and in case you’re wondering about the rest of their relationship? Katy sprinkled in some NSFW details about their sex life, but we’ll leave that for another episode of Too Much Information.

Love, meditation, celibacy, a dash of crazy, and a man who is apparently immune to relationship drama. Hollywood, are you taking notes?
