‘Thank you Australia’: Katy Perry fights back tears in Aussie farewell

Katy Perry fought back tears just days after Orlando Bloom was seen hanging around with Kim Kardashian in Venice.

An emotional Katy Perry was seen fighting back tears onstage as she thanked fans following her split from Orlando Bloom.

The singer’s upset came as Orlando, 48, shared cryptic posts on Instagram following the breakdown of their relationship.

Katy, 40 is currently on her world tour and has put on a brave face despite her ongoing separation from Orlando.

It was revealed last week how the A-list couple had parted ways after nine-years together.

But while he headed off to Jeff Bezos’ wedding in Italy, Katy has remained on tour.

As she brought her final show in Australia to a close she began to well up.

Making a heart with her fingers, Katy’s voice started to crack as she addressed the crowd.

“Thank you Australia for always being there for me,” she said, clearly fighting back tears.

Meanwhile, Katy’s ex-Orlando took to Instagram to share a series of cryptic posts.

Hinting at his life taking a new direction, one read: “Each day is a new beginning.

“What we do today is what matters most.”

While the other also talked about change, and said: “The important thing is to take the first step.

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

It’s been an emotional week for both Katy and Orlando.

Last week, The Sun reported how the star couple held crisis talks to try to save their relationship after leading increasingly separate lives.

An insider said: “No one has decided it’s definitely the end of the road for Katy and Orlando.

“They both love each other, but they have been living different lives for at least a year and in different mindsets.”

The insider added: “They have barely been together for a decent amount of time, without distractions, for many, many months.”

Just days after news of their break-up broke, Orlando “made his debut as a single man” at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’s wedding.

At the three-day celebration he was seen embracing Kim Kardashian and chatting to Sydney Sweeney.

Katy and Orlando started dating in 2016 and got engaged three years later. They share four-year-old daughter Daisy.
