Katy Perry Gives Fans an Update on Her ‘Mood’ Amid News of Split From Orlando Bloom
As news spread of her recent split with ex-fiancé Orlando Bloom, pop superstar Katy Perry is giving fans an update on her life on tour.
In a post to her Instagram on Friday (June 27), the singer shared a series of photos and videos of her travels in Australia as part of the current leg of her Lifetimes Tour. The first few pictures show Perry excitedly posing with a small marsupial, which she name drops in her caption: “mood: Quokka,” she wrote.
Other clips show Perry and her team boating out to Rottnest Island, a place that Perry declares she and her crew’s “brain rot can run free.” In a final clip, fans can see Perry playing a card game with her crew as she slams her cards down on the table and declares, “I won!”
The latest snaps and clips come as multiple outlets confirmed that Perry and her partner of nine years have split up. Rumors had circulated for a few weeks claiming that the couple was struggling in their relationship. Billboard has reached out to representatives for both Perry and Bloom for comment.
In the meantime, Perry is currently finishing out the Australian leg of her tour before she returns to the United States in July to begin the second half of her North American tour. Stateside shows kick off on July 10 in Denver, and will see Perry travel to cities including San Francisco, Seattle, Detroit, Boston and New York City before closing her U.S. run in Miami on Aug. 23.
