But despite plans in motion, Katy is said to be "stressed" after her last album launch with "stress" putting strain on the relationship between her and her husband.
An insider has told People that the couple have endured a "rough patch" after she was disappointed with the reception for her album 143, which came out last September.
"Katy was deeply frustrated following the reception of her new album," a source told the outlet.
They explained how it made her "very stressed" and despite Orlando being "understanding" it did cause "some tension".
A second source then revealed: "She was also disappointed in some of the tour reviews. It's put stress on their relationship."
Meanwhile, a source speaking to Us Weekly stated: "They have been spending more and more time apart.
"They've grown apart and aren't living the same lives anymore."
'WEDDING DATE NEVER SET'
A different insider then told the outlet that despite having been engaged for six years, the two superstars never set a date for their nuptials.
The source claimed that they "never set a date for the wedding or got around to planning anything".
They also claimed "Orlando is 'over it'," adding that "things aren't good".

The U.S. Sun approached both Katy and Orlando's representatives for comment.
Last autumn, ahead of Katy's album launch, things between the pair seemed to be on the right track when they packed on PDA at the MTV VMAs.
Orlando announced Katy by her real name as he presented her with the iconic Vanguard award at the ceremony on September 12.
Fans were stunned when Orlando, whom Katy has been in a relationship with since 2016, announced the winner of the award as Katheryn Hudson.
Katy Perry & Orlando Bloom's Relationship Timeline
Fans have followed Katy and Orlando's relationship since it began in 2016. Here's a breakdown of their romance. The lovebirds met in January 2016 at a Golden Globes afterparty.
That May, the pair made their relationship Instagram official.
Katy and Orlando broke up in February 2017, which their reps confirmed after fans noticed they kept their distance at the Vanity Fair Oscars party.
They reunited a year later on vacation in Prague.
In September 2018, the duo made their red carpet debut at the Gala for the Global Ocean at the Opera of Monte-Carlo in Monaco.
Orlando popped the question on Valentine's Day the following year.
In March 2019, Orlando revealed he sold his home and had moved in with Katy.
In March 2020, the couple announced they were expecting their first child together, whom they welcomed on August 26.
Shortly before their daughter Daisy Dove's second birthday, Katy teased that she wanted to have more children with her fiance.
In May 2024, Katy had fans convinced she was pregnant again when she posted a photo of her holding a positive pregnancy test. She followed with throwback photos and videos of her sharing the news of her first pregnancy.
GUSHING SPEECH AND PDA
"Give it up for our newest Video Vanguard, Katheryn Hudson," Orlando said when presenting the award in the UBS Arena last fall.
Orlando sweetly referenced the singer's birth name, before adding, "Katy Perry!"
He then added, "You fell in love with her as Katy Perry, I fell in love with her as Katheryn Hudson.
"You know her as a global superstar who brings love, light and her unique sense of humor into every song she writes and every music video she creates.
"I know her as a mother, as a partner who brings that same love and joy to our family," he went on.
Not only did he give a gushing and glowing speech about his wife-to-be, but they even embraced on-stage and shared a very public smooch, too.

Taina Elg obituary
Asked how she would know when she had hit the big time, the beguiling actor Taina Elg, who has died aged 95, said: 'When people no longer trip over my name.' When she arrived in the US in 1954 at the start of her contract with MGM, a newspaper campaign engineered by the studio and sponsored by Armour Star meat products offered readers the chance to win a six-room house or $25,000 cash by proposing a new name for this latest exotic star-in-the-making. Contestants were asked to send in suggested names along with labels from corned beef hash and devilled ham. This all came to nought, and she was still not-so-plain-old Taina Elg when she began appearing on screen. She landed her first major US role in 1957 (the same year that the Golden Globes named her New Foreign Star of the Year) in the Gene Kelly musical Les Girls. Newspapers were still helpfully reminding their readers at every opportunity that her first name rhymed with 'Dinah'. They were also prone to tell them, as the Times-Tribune did in 1958, that Elg was 'the only Finn of note' at that time in Hollywood and 'the first from her country to become a genuine star of cinema'. In Les Girls, directed by George Cukor and with music by Cole Porter, Elg held her own alongside Mitzi Gaynor and Kay Kendall as dancers in a cabaret troupe headed by Kelly. Based on Constance Tomkinson's reminiscences of her time in the Folies Bergère, and showing each character in succession looking back on the troupe's glory days before acrimony set in, the film's use of contradictory perspectives made it the closest thing to a musical take on Kurosawa's Rashomon. Elg's performance as the apparently lovelorn and suicidal member of the group won her a second Golden Globe. She followed this with Imitation General (1958), in which she was a French farm worker involved with a master sergeant (played by Glenn Ford) who impersonates a dead general to keep up his platoon's morale. The role was played entirely in French until her final words to Ford: 'I … love … you.' 'I'm the only Finnish actress working here,' Elg said the following year. 'Yet of the six films I've made, I have portrayed a French girl four times.' Watusi (1959), in which she was a missionary's daughter rescued by explorers and caught up in their jungle adventures, took the unfashionable route of making her German. In the same year, she starred in the second adaptation of John Buchan's The 39 Steps (and the first in colour) as the netball coach who ends up handcuffed to the hero, here played by Kenneth More, as he is pursued by assassins. Elg was born in Helsinki, and raised in assorted other Finnish locations, including Turku, by her mother, Helena Doroumova, and father, Åke Elg, who were both pianists. During the Finnish-Soviet wars, the family were forced to leave, returning to Helsinki only after the end of the second world war. Taina trained as a ballet dancer from an early age and was accepted by the Finnish National Ballet as a child, which led to a handful of small roles in domestic films. She also danced at Sadler's Wells and at the Grand Ballet du Marquis de Cuevas in Paris and the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo, before an injury led her to reconsider her career. She was spotted in London by the producer Edwin H Knopf, brother of the publisher Alfred. After an impressive screen test directed by Mel Ferrer, she was signed to a seven-year contract with MGM in Hollywood. Small roles followed in two films starring Lana Turner – the biblical tale The Prodigal (1955), in which Elg played a slave, and the 16th-century romance Diane (1956) – as well as Gaby (also 1956), with Leslie Caron as a French ballet dancer. The career high-point of Les Girls was never equalled. For the remainder of her career, Elg worked mostly in television and theatre. Occasional exceptions included Hercules in New York (1970), which gave an early starring role to the young Arnold Schwarzenegger. In 1962, she headed the national touring production of Irma La Douce. In 1973, she starred on Broadway in Look to the Lilies, as well as understudying Julie Christie as Yelena in a production of Uncle Vanya. 'I didn't get a chance to go on and play it, as Julie was in excellent health,' she said. In 1982, she originated the role of the philandering hero's mother in Nine, the Broadway musical based on Fellini's 8½. Her son was played by Raul Julía, with whom she had also starred in the 1974 revival of Where's Charley?, for which she earned a Tony nomination. She briefly found her way back to cinema thanks to two directors with a taste for the power of nostalgia. Mike Figgis's thriller Liebestraum (1991), which was also Kim Novak's final film before retiring, gave Elg her first movie role in more than two decades, as the matriarch of a department store business. She was a teacher in the romantic comedy The Mirror Has Two Faces (1996), starring and directed by Barbra Streisand. Her final screen role came in the Finnish caper Kummelin Jackpot (2006). Elg is survived by her son, the jazz guitarist Raoul Björkenheim, from a five-year marriage to Carl Gustav Björkenheim, which ended in divorce in 1958. Her second marriage, to Rocco Caporale, an academic, ended with his death in 2008. Taina Elg, actor, born 9 March 1930; died 15 May 2025

Liam Gallagher seemingly confirms Oasis reunion tour ISN'T final time they'll perform together
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LIAM Gallagher has appeared to confirm that Oasis will continue as an active band beyond their scheduled reunion tour. Fans are counting down the days until the Gallagher brothers reunite at the Principality Stadium, Cardiff, for their first show in 16 years.

But there could be plenty more to come now that the siblings' turbulent relationship has steadied. When a fan tweeted, "is there anything better than oasis getting back together?" Liam responded, "Yeah staying together". The party-loving 90s hellraisers have changed massively since their Britpop pomp and are no longer as volatile. Now in their 50s, the Gallaghers have swapped booze for brews as they rehearse for their stadium shows. And it's standing them in good stead with the brothers and bandmates Bonehead, Gem Archer, Andy Bell and Joey Waronker all sounding on top form as they blew the cobwebs off Cigarettes and Alcohol in a secret London location. In one of his regular exchanges with fans online, Liam said Guinness isn't fuelling the practice sessions, writing: 'We're professionals. "No time for drinking.' A source close to the Gallaghers told us: 'Liam drinks tea to help warm up his vocal chords. 'He feels really fresh and they're excited to get going. Liam Gallagher On His Rocky Relationship With Noel and Oasis Reunion, The Graham Norton Show "Rehearsals have been electric and they're perfectly in sync.' Liam said previously that he never drinks before a gig, or the night before. He said: 'The voice don't handle that any more.' Noel, 58, said last year he wanted a break from drinking and was 'going to try and get off the booze'. 3 Liam has swapped booze for cups of tea Credit: BBC
