Katy Perry has spoken for the first time about her split from Orlando Bloom.
The couple split in June 2025 after being together for almost 10 years. They share daughter, Daisy Dove, six.
“It was probably the hardest time,” she told People magazine of the split, talking about being on tour when the news broke. “My friends were all hanging out back home. I was crying and just feeling far away. But then my angels went to work. They really showed up.”
“I learned how to step back into my purpose,” she said. She then spoke about her new partner, Justin Trudeau. “And I got the greatest gift from this tour: I got to meet the love of my life.”
Perry, 41, met the former Canadian Prime Minister last July in Montreal. “I got to meet Justin on tour, and then things shifted,” she said.
“I always wanted this epic legendary love, and I was talking to my therapist about it: Everything in my life is epic, but this is kind of the missing puzzle piece – then it showed up.”
She reflected on what her relationship with Bloom taught her. “I wouldn’t have stayed in something for nine years if there wasn’t really important things to learn. Each relationship is a teacher, right? I had to let it go so I could move forward.”
