After a year of dating Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have decided to call it quits.
Reps for the pair released a joint statement to
People saying, “Before rumors and falsifications get out of hand, we can confirm that Orlando and Katy are taking respectful, loving space at this time.”
Sources close to the couple revealed to
People that the relationship was never meant to be serious to begin with and that over the last few weeks the relationship “just became more and more work to make it work.”
A source close to Orlando Bloom told
People the relationship had been shaky for a while, but there was nothing dramatic leading up to the split – “There was nothing dramatic or over the top. Katy’s going through a lot of changes for her new music – both physically and emotionally – and this was a part of that.”
A source close to Katy further revealed to
People, “This really wasn’t a bad breakup for her. Her split from John Mayer was a lot harder for her. This just ran its course.”
