Orlando Bloom Speaks About His Relationship With Katy Perry
In an episode of the On Purpose with Jay Shetty podcast, Bloom opened up about his relationship with Perry and how much he has grown since dating her.
"I think I'm constantly learning to let go. Because anything that I try to hold onto, whether it's good or bad, doesn't serve me," he said of Perry. "Not in the relationship, and it doesn't really serve either of us. And that's really hard. To keep letting go and to keep letting her go."
The Pirates of the Caribbean star explained, "You know, the idea of, because I think when you are in a deeply loving, committed relationship, you want to control or own or have and, you know, even just letting go of ideas, how things should be, or the idea of what intimacy or intimate moments are to you versus them, or whatever it may be," he explained.
Bloom said that "challenging each other" has helped them a lot. Bloom and Perry welcomed their daughter, Daisy Dove, in 2020.
