What will happen to Katy Perry, Orlando Bloom’s $22m mansion after spilt

Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have called it quits after nine years together.

A source confirmed to Us Weekly the couple ended their six-year engagement.

“Katy and Orlando have split but are amicable,” a source close told the outlet

“It’s not contentious at the moment. 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.”

According to the insider, the pop star and Bloom’s break up was “a long time coming” as things between them “have been tense for months.”

The pair share a four-year-old daughter, Daisy and have been apart since the “Teenage Dream” singer kicked off her Lifetimes tour earlier this year.

Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have called it quits after nine years together.

In the meantime, Perry is “renting out” her Westcott Estate in Montecito, California.

“But her and Orlando have always lived in their other Montecito home as their primary residence,” the source continued.

The source added the duo were “planning on making the Westcott home their family home but plans have changed” and “have been living apart since Katy has been on tour.”

“They are still very much in touch and co-parenting Daisy together,” a second insider added.

“They aren’t making drastic changes for Daisy’s sake. They will keep their lives in Montecito.

“They are prioritising stability and consistency for Daisy.”

The pop sensation is currently in the middle of her Lifetimes Tour and is due to perform in Australia until June 30.

When her tour wraps, however, Perry will return to Montecito — where she and Bloom are in the process of finishing renovations on a sprawling compound that they purchased in October 2020 for a staggering $US14.2 million ($A21.7 million), Realtor reports.

The duo were understood to have been carrying out extensive work on the sprawling abode, which is one of two over-the-top dwellings that Perry owns in the celebrity-loved enclave.

It’s unclear who will take ownership of the property, however records indicate that only Perry’s name was on the deed.

The “Birthday” hit maker purchased the Mediterranean-style mansion just months after buying another Montecito abode over which she became embroiled in a bitter legal battle with its former owner.

Perry struck a deal to purchase the property from veteran Carl Westcott for $US15 million ($A22 million) back in 2020.

Days later, the seller tried to back out of the deal, claiming that he had been under the influence of painkillers when he agreed to the sale.

“The combination of his age, frailty from his back condition and recent surgery, and the opiates he was taking several times a day rendered Mr. Westcott of unsound mind,” Mr Westcott’s lawyers stated in court documents.

However, Perry’s representatives argued that Westcott, a business mogul who founded 1-800-Flowers, had been of sound mind when he agreed to the deal and that he only wanted to back out because he hadn’t been able to find an alternative Montecito property to his liking or budget.

Their years-long legal battle was finally resolved in December 2023, when a judge ruled in Perry’s favour and ordered that the original sale contract — which was arranged via the pop star’s business manager, Bernie Gudvi — should be upheld.

Perry officially took possession of the home in May 2024. The sprawling compound sits among the Santa Ynez foothills and has eight bedrooms, 7.5 bathrooms, a tennis court, two guesthouses, and a pool.

It’s unclear whether Bloom was involved in the purchase of the sprawling abode.

However, the “Pirates of the Caribbean “star was dragged into Perry’s legal battle when he was subpoenaed to testify in a trial during which the “Roar” singer was attempting to claim damages of up to $US6 million ($A13 million) from Mr Westcott.

Most recently, it was reported that Perry had made the decision to lease the property to fellow A-lister Chris Pratt and his wife, Katherine Schwarzenegger.

The Daily Mail reported that the couple had recently moved into the dwelling while they finished work on their own property in Brentwood.

“The arrangement suits Chris but it’s a bit of a surprise given how Katy fought tooth and nail to get her hands on the house,” a source told the outlet.

“She previously suggested it was the ideal place for her and Orlando to raise a family.

“After all that time, energy and money, it seems unthinkable that they are not going to live in it.”

Perry and Bloom began dating in 2016 after meeting at a Golden Globes after-party, where they fought over an In ‘N’ Out burger, the singer previously revealed during an episode of “American Idol.”

Rumours of a split have dogged the couple for years now; however, Bloom appeared to confirm the latest speculation when he made a solo arrival in Venice for the wedding of Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos and his fiancee, Lauren Sanchez — with whom Perry is also understood to be close friends.

One source told TMZ that Bloom is refusing to let the split get him down, claiming that the actor is planning to let his hair down during the wedding celebrations.

“He’s the life of the party and he’s gonna hit the dance floor hard!” the insider claimed.

Currently, it’s not known whether Perry will make an appearance at the wedding — having been one of a select few guests invited to attend Sanchez’s bachelorette party back in May, alongside Kim and Eva Longoria.

Bloom also has a son Flynn with Australian model Miranda Kerr.

Kerr has since had three additional sons with Snapchat co-founder Evan Spiegel – Hart, Myles and Pierre Spiegel.
