Just weeks after Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom ended their relationship, Orlando was seen enjoying the company of several women, while Katy, far from home, became emotional on stage in Australia.
The 48-year-old British actor seems to be fully embracing single life, spending a week partying in Italy. This included attending a lively weekend at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’s wedding, followed by a glamorous gathering on a yacht with celebrities.
According to an insider speaking to the Daily Mail, 40-year-old Perry is feeling upset by Orlando’s actions since their breakup. The source shared insights into how the singer, who is a mother of one, is truly feeling.
‘It’s disappointing,’ said a source close to Perry, who is currently on her Lifetimes world tour. ‘It’s hurtful and annoying. If he’s going to behave like an acting-up adolescent, that’s on him. She’s going to continue to work and take care of Daisy.’
‘Katy knows that he’s free to do whatever the hell he wants to do, she hoped he’d do it a little more discreetly and thoughtfully,’ the source continued. ‘So she’s disappointed and sad.’
From a distance, Perry has seen the news coverage of her ex’s behavior.
He danced the night away as a guest on Bezos’ swanky superyacht alongside 450 other VIPs including likes of Naomi Campbell, Kendall Jenner, Sofia Vergara and Heidi Klum.
Then he was recently spotted chatting up Leonardo DiCaprio’s girlfriend, Vittoria Ceretti, during a water taxi ride as they headed to the airport following the Amazon founder’s wedding this past weekend.

Bloom and Perry had been together since 2016
Fresh from three days partying, Bloom then headed on board Ritz-Carlton’s gleaming 794-ft Luminara for its inaugural cruise from Rome.
But between parties, Bloom has shared cryptic posts on social media about his heartbreak
The Lord Of The Rings star, 48, shared quotes from the late psychiatrist Carl Jung to his Instagram stories after the nine-year relationship ended.
‘Loneliness does not come from having no people about one, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself,’ he wrote.
Reposting another quote, Orlando alluded to the darker sides of his life.
The quote read: ‘Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.’
He followed that up by sharing a quote from Gautama Buddha to his seven million followers.
‘Each day is a new beginning,’ he wrote, ‘What we do today is what matters most.’
A source close to Perry says that she’s ‘disappointed’ with Bloom’s recent behavior
Bloom has been living the single life since news of the split was announced
But the Perry insider scoffs at the inspirational quotes and says that the singer believes he is merely managing his public persona.
‘He’s smart enough to know that the partying is not a good look,’ the source grouses. ‘But all the quotes in the world from famous philosophers and religious leaders can’t change the fact that he’s out there doing what he’s doing.’
When the split was revealed, a source told Us Weekly: ‘Katy and Orlando have split but are amicable,’ while also adding that the separation has been ‘not contentious’ thus far.
‘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.’
Reps for Bloom and Perry did not return the Daily Mail’s request for comment.
The Teenage Dream hitmaker was previously married to Russell Brand from 2010 until their divorce in 2012.
Despite Bloom’s behavior, Perry’s friend says that she is striving to take the split in stride. ‘She wishes him all the best,’ says the source, ‘She just wants to move forward.’
