Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have officially ended their engagement seven years after Orlando proposed on Valentine's Day 2018. And apparently Katy is relieved that they never got married since now she doesn't have to navigate a painful divorce. Direct quote form an Us Weekly insider: "Katy is of course upset but is relieved to not have to go through another divorce, as that was the worst time in her life."
That said, the former couple almost got married right after their engagement—but then Covid happened, they had a daughter, and eventually hit a rough patch where marriage was simply "not on their radar."
"They were looking forward to marrying fast after getting engaged and then COVID got in the way," a source recently told The Daily Mail. "[When] they got engaged, she was expecting, so everything came fast, and she was looking forward to heading down the aisle pregnant. It was actually something she wanted to happen. But with the unknown of COVID and travel restrictions, they had to postpone their nuptials."
The insider added that "As time passed, she released new music, set up for a tour, left American Idol all while juggling being a new mom. There just wasn't anytime to put a wedding together. The chances of breaking up were more likely than getting married."
The good news is that Katy and Orlando are amicable and planning to coparent their daughter Daisy. More on their breakup plans...
