Relationship Timeline: Milestones and Setbacks
Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom first made their relationship public in May 2016 with an Instagram post.

Despite their strong public presence, early speculation of a split appeared in November of their first year together, leading to a short breakup. Representatives for the stars confirmed they had separated in March 2017, but within five months, the two were seen together again at an Ed Sheeran concert.
By April 2018, the pair’s romance was rekindled, as Perry openly confirmed their reunion in an interview with Entertainment Tonight. The relationship saw another milestone on February 15, 2019, when the couple announced their engagement via Instagram. Later that month, Perry appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! to share details about their engagement, showing off her ruby and diamond ring.

Their daughter, Daisy Dove, was born in August 2020. Despite their growing family and shared public life, Bloom and Perry never proceeded to marry.
