Orlando Bloom posts cryptic message amid Katy Perry split

Orlando Bloom has appeared to allude to his split from Katy Perry for the first time since the news broke.

Orlando Bloom is in his feelings.

The actor, who has reportedly split from Katy Perry after nearly 10 years together, took to social media to share a cryptic message about a “new beginning” just days after whispers of his break-up with the singer came to light.

“The important thing is to take that first step,” the actor wrote on his Instagram Story on Monday.

“Bravely overcoming one small fear gives you the courage to take on the next.”

Bloom, 48, credited the quote as his “daily encouragement” from Buddhist author Daisaku Ikeda.

Before sharing Ikeda’s quote, the Pirates of the Caribbean star also shared a quote from Buddha.

“Each day is a new beginning. What we do today is what matters the most,” the quote read, which Bloom soundtracked to James Quinn’s A Gentle Sunlight.

Bloom’s moment of reflection comes just days after he partied solo at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’s $50 million Venetian wedding.

At the lavish nuptials, Bloom was seen linking up with Tom Brady and Leonardo DiCaprio.

The group buddied up with the Kardashians and Sydney Sweeney at their hotel following the reception, TMZ reported.

Over the weekend, Bloom and Sweeney, 27, were photographed taking a stroll in Venice together alongside Tom Brady.

And while Perry was not in attendance at the wedding, Sánchez made sure to let Perry know she was missed.

After the singer, 40, insinuated she was in a good “mood” on Instagram as her ex partied without her, Sánchez commented on the post, “We miss you Katy,” alongside a heart emoji.

Earlier this month, Page Six reported that Bloom’s relationship with the “California Gurls” singer was on the rocks.

“It’s over,” the source said.

On June 26, Us Weekly claimed the on-again, off-again couple had officially called it quits after nearly a decade together.

The pair met in January 2016 at a Golden Globe Awards afterparty. Bloom ultimately popped the all-important question on Valentine’s Day in 2019. They welcomed daughter Daisy the following August.

The actor is also dad to son Flynn, 14, whom he shares with his ex-wife, Miranda Kerr.

Perry, for her part, was previously married to Russell Brand from 2010 to 2012.
