The mystery brunette spotted in an embrace in the back of a Venetian water taxi with Orlando Bloom is his ex-fiancée Katy Perry's stylist, MailOnline can reveal today.
The British actor, 48, is among a number of the world's most eligible bachelors in Venice for Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's $20million wedding, having just split from his popstar partner, 40.
Last night, after the happy couple's pre-wedding party in Italy, Orlando jumped into a boat to shelter from torrential rain and was photographed embracing a younger brunette friend in the back.
Today MailOnline can reveal that the woman in question is Jamie Mizrahi, 36, a Hollywood stylist to the stars and a friend of many years.
Jamie, who lives in Montecito, California with her husband Nico, is friends with Meghan Markle and has had a long-term working relationship with Meghan's neighbour Katy Perry as well as Hunger Games actress Jennifer Lawrence, Britney Spears and a host of other stars.
The mother-of-two, nicknamed 'sweet Jamie' by friends, is also responsible for Adele 's show-stopping wardrobe on stage and is describe by industry insiders as the 'go-to stylist for every Hollywood A-Lister'.
It came as excitable Orlando enjoyed brunch ahead of the wedding and spent some time with another neighbour, Oprah Winfrey. He then went for a walk with fellow singleton Tom Brady.
Orlando was pictured smiling in workout clothes and cap on the terrace of the Gritti Palace Hotel - one of five of the city's most luxurious hotels booked out by the Amazon billionaire to host his 250 influential guests.
The star, whose former partner is putting on a brave face while touring Australia with their daughter Daisy, four, spoke to guests as he ate a late breakfast and drank cappuccinos in the Veneto sunshine.
Orlando also laughed wildly while speaking to an immaculately dressed waiter and drank his coffee while looking out on one of the city's canals. He then left the hotel for a walk ahead of the wedding later today.
MailOnline can reveal that one of the mystery women spotted with Orlando in Italy last night for the wedding of the decade was Roman Abramovich 's Russian-American ex-wife.
In a set of pictures described as heartbreaking for his Katy Perry's heart, newly-single Orlando was all smiles as left Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's lavish pre-wedding celebration.
The British actor and Roman Abramovich 's Russian-American ex-wife Dasha Zhukova boarded a Venetian water taxi last night.
It came as Katy Perry received a sweet message from bride-to-be Lauren Sanchez today, declaring on social media: 'We miss you Katy'.

Bloom and other guests had to brave the heavy rainfall as the party's VIPs exited the historic venue to catch a boat ride back along Venice's famous canals to the luxurious five-star Aman Hotel.
Ms Zhukova and Mr Bloom are just good friends. Orlando and his ex Katy Perry have grown close to Dasha and her new husband Stavros Niarchos III, who both live in California.
Dasha shares three children with her shipping scion husband, a Greek professional kiteboarder and the heir to the Niarchos shipping fortune.
The couple married in 2019 - after she found love again when her marriage to Russian oligarch Ambramovich ended in 2017, after nine years of wedlock. They have two children.
A year ago Rupert Murdoch, 94, became her stepfather after he and Zhukova's mother Elena, 68, married.
Fresh off his shock split from popstar Katy Perry, Orlando Bloom enjoyed a night with a mystery woman at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez 's lavish pre-wedding party in Italy on Thursday.
The British actor, 48, was spotted leaving the Madonna dell Orto cloisters with a glamorous brunette after guests were forced to end the night early following a freak thunderstorm in Venice.
It marked a rocky start to the billionaire couple's three-day $20million wedding extravaganza, with Bezos and Sanchez set to say 'I Do' on Friday in front of the likes of Kim Kardashian and Ivanka Trump.

The star looked to be in high spirits despite the recent news of his and Perry's split
News of Bloom and Perry's breakup was confirmed by sources on Thursday after weeks of rampant speculation.
The couple first got together in 2016 before splitting up and getting back together in 2018.
Bloom proposed to Perry in 2019 and they welcomed daughter Daisy Dove, now four-years-old, in August 2020.
Rumors of 'tensions' between Perry and Orlando began to surface earlier this month.
Several outlets alleged that the singer's poor-performing album 143 and the mocking she faced following her Blue Origin space trip — as well as her ongoing Lifetimes Tour — put 'stress' on the relationship.
The Teenage hitmaker has also recently been seen without her engagement ring in recent weeks.
Furthering the speculation, it was confirmed that Bloom would be attending Sanchez and Bezos' wedding without Perry, who is on tour in Australia.
Neither Perry or Bloom have spoken publicly on the split reports.
Bloom arrived in Venice, Italy on Wednesday afternoon along with the likes of A-list wedding guests like Kim Kardashian, Tom Brady and Leonardo DiCaprio.
He shared a kiss with Kim, 44 — who he once famously 'checked out' while at an event with Katy last year — as he caught up with her and her sister Khloe just before the festivities began.
Bloom and Brady, who are among the wedding's most eligible bachelors, grabbed a water taxi together while heading to Sanchez and Bezos' doomed pre-wedding soiree at Madonna dell Orto on Thursday.
Also in attendance were Kendall Jenner, Kylie Jenner, Kris Jenner, Oprah Winfrey, Gayle King, Ivanka Trump and her husband Jared Kushner.
As the thunderstorm moved in, guests ran for cover under the vaulted cloisters as lightening bolts flashed across the sky and thunder rumbled overhead at the end of what was a torridly humid day with temperatures nudging 96.8° Fahrenheit.
Torrential downpours and a strong wind left guests soaked as they then dashed for water taxis which had been scrambled a good 45 minutes ahead of the midnight finish time.
The strong gusts of winds whipped table cloths away and sent waiters scurrying for umbrellas to protect the VIP attendees.
Bride-to-be Lauren was surrounded by tuxedo-clad gentleman carrying blue umbrellas over her as she exited the party venue amid the downpour.
The TV personality, 55, had on a striking off-the-shoulder dress with a dramatic gold corset cinching in her already tiny waist.
One onlooker said: 'It just goes to show you can have all the money in the world but you cant control the weather - although an Italian saying says a wet bride is a happy and lucky bride.'
Bezos, 61 — who popped the question in 2023 with a $3 million engagement ring — was seen following closely behind Lauren with an umbrella over his head.
In footage obtained by DailyMail.com, Lauren appeared to be in high spirits despite the rain ending their soiree early.
Bezos and Sanchez are set to tie the knot on Friday, June 27 in Venice, Italy after a two-year engagement.
The Amazon billionaire and his bride-to-be are said to have invited 200 people to their three-day Italian wedding.

Along with Kim Kardashian, Ellie Goulding, Khloe Kardashian and Ivanka Trump, the star-studded guest list includes Leonardo DiCaprio, Mick Jagger, Oprah Winfrey, Orlando Bloom and Tom Brady.
Earlier this week, a copy of the couple's invite was leaked with one very specific request made on behalf of the couple.
They've asked guests not to buy them any presents and told them they'll be making donations to multiple charities working to stop Venice from sinking on attendees' behalf instead.
Bezos is thought to be spending roughly $15 to $20 million on his and Sanchez's Italian nuptials.
On Thursday, a source closely connected to the organization of the week's events revealed to DailyMail.com exclusively that Bezos and Sanchez are already legally married.
'They have been married for at least a month, more than a month. The marriage is fully legal and took place in America under American law,' the insider revealed.
They added: 'When they were planning the wedding, they were clear about the fact that they were already secretly married.
'There is no application for a wedding license from the couple because it was not required.
'Whatever happens at the wedding on Friday, it will not be a wedding. Under Italian law, it will not be a wedding celebration, any vows said or rings exchanged will have no legal meaning.'
The source also claimed that Jeff had personally confirmed that he and Lauren are already legally married, and that they had also signed a pre-nuptial agreement to protect his $244 billion fortune.
Greenpeace and the UK-based collective Everyone Hates Elon have joined protests in Venice attempting to disrupt, or even prevent, the planned wedding celebrations of Amazon founder Bezos this week.
' Jeff Bezos is the second-richest man in the world yet is reported to pay a 1.1 percent true tax rate,' the two groups said in a joint statement.
'The multi-million-dollar wedding is reportedly happening over three days, with the wedding ring alone worth as much as $5million.'
A spokesperson from Everyone Hates Elon said: 'As governments talk about hard choices and struggle to fund public services, Jeff Bezos can afford to shut down half a city for days on end just to get married.'
'If you can rent Venice for your wedding, you can pay more tax,' one gigantic banner read in St. Mark's Square.
Venice mayor Luigi Brugnaro and regional governor Luca Zaia have spoken out in favor of the nuptials, which have been dubbed, 'the wedding of the century,' pointing out that the celebrations are expected to bring $23-34million to local businesses.
'This is a city that handles 150,000 people a day,' Zaia told Italian daily Corriere della Sera. 'George Clooney, François-Henri Pinault and Salma Hayek, Alexandre Arnault, Elton John and many others got married here.'
Bezos has also pledged to make sizable charity donations, including $1.16million to Corila - an academic consortium dedicated to studying Venice's lagoon ecosystem - according to Corriere della Sera and Italy's ANSA news agency.
Earlier this month, anti-Bezos banners were hung in Venice from St. Mark's Tower with 'Bezos' in blue capital letters and a red X over it as part of a 'No Space for Bezos' campaign, a play on Bezos' Blue Origin spaceflight venture.
More outrage was sparked Thursday as Bezos and Sanchez's wedding guests descended upon the Madonna dell Orto for the rain-soaked pre-party.
The chaos caused by the star-studded event reportedly forced canals to shut down and tourists to cancel reservations in Venice.
According to one business owner who runs a kayak renting service in the area, the bridges were 'closed off' to make way for Lauren, Jeff, and their guests, leaving customers unable to reach them.
'We had a party of clients booked for Thursday night. But they were unable to get through to us because the bridges were all closed off,' they shared.

'Despite them having booking, the police wouldn't let them pass. It was party of five Americans, and they had booked an hour and a half for $100 each and so we had to cancel.
'The party involved was on a tight schedule and couldn't rebook so we will have to refund them and so we have lost money.'
In addition to the bridges, the Venice local claimed that the canals were also shut gown and that police on jet skis turned them around when they tried to get through.
They added that there was 'no real notification from the council that the canal would be closed.'
'I don't begrudge [Jeff and Lauren] for getting married, but this has cost us money and of all the places in Venice they had to choose the one by us,' they added.
Photos also showed police presence all over the Italian city, including officers on jet skis in the canals, as water taxis went back and forth taking Lauren and Jeff's guests from their hotels to the event.
Around 20 activists were seen protesting hours before the pre-wedding party in St Mark's Square, the iconic heart of Venice.
Protesters held signs that read, 'We are the 99 percent we have the power,' 'the planet burns,' while someone even waved an extinction rebellion flag.
Sanchez and Bezos arrived in Venice for their wedding on Wednesday.
They were photographed outside the luxurious five-star Aman Hotel — where some suites cost nearly $14,000 per night — after being dropped off by a water taxi along with 50 of their 200-something guests.
They hosted a drinks reception with a playlist of romantic music, blasting More Than A Woman by the Bee Gees. They then continued to play tunes like Nina Simone's I'm Feeling Good, Lovely Day by Bill Withers and Brown Eyed Girl by Van Morrison.
Earlier that day, in the private garden of the hotel, which is surrounded by a 10ft brick wall, staff could be heard working to erect marquees, ready for a weekend of celebrations.

BREAKING NEWS
Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom 'split' after seven years as insider reveals how singer is coping
Pictures obtained by DailyMail.com of the lavish celebration show the loved-up couple covered in little more than soap suds as they relished in the summer sunshine.
Bezos proposed to Sanchez on the same superyacht more than two years ago in May 2023.
While it's unclear when exactly they started dating, Lauren and Jeff's romance was first exposed by the National Enquirer in January 2019, while they were both married to their now-exes.
Soon after it was revealed, the billionaire businessman divorced his wife of more than 25 years and the mother of his four children, Mackenzie Scott, while Lauren left her husband, Patrick.
At the time, the bombshell report from the Enquirer claimed that Lauren and Jeff had been involved in an eight-month affair, which involved him 'whisking his mistress off to exotic destinations on his $65 million private jet, sending her raunchy messages and erotic selfies, and having secret rendezvous at palatial private estates.'
The outlet said that it had tracked them 'across five states and 40,000 miles, tailing them in private jets, swanky limos, helicopter rides, romantic hikes, five-star hotel hideaways, intimate dinner dates and 'quality time' in hidden love nests.'
Following the Enquirer's accusations, Jeff fired back by writing a lengthy essay to the publication's CEO, David Pecker, in which the mogul accused the company of blackmailing him.
'Rather than capitulate to extortion and blackmail, I've decided to publish exactly what they sent me, despite the personal cost and embarrassment they threaten,' he wrote.
'[After] intimate texts messages from me were published in the National Enquirer, I engaged investigators to learn how those texts were obtained, and to determine the motives for the many unusual actions taken by the Enquirer.
'We were then approached with an offer. They said they had more of my text messages and photos that they would publish if we didn't stop our investigation.'
He shared alleged emails sent to him by Enquirer staffers, in which they described the racy images they had 'obtained during their newsgathering' in detail.
'If in my position I can't stand up to this kind of extortion, how many people can?' Jeff continued.
While Jeff and Lauren are set to say 'I do' in front of guests on Friday, a source revealed to DailyMail.com this week that the couple are already married; seen in 2021
The A-list couple got engaged more than two years ago in 2023
'Of course I don't want personal photos published, but I also won't participate in their well-known practice of blackmail, political favors, political attacks, and corruption. I prefer to stand up, roll this log over, and see what crawls out.'
As for how Jeff and Lauren met, it was said that it was Lauren's husband Patrick who was the first to introduce the two at an Amazon studios party for the movie Manchester By the Sea in 2016.
Her production team was then hired to film footage for Jeff's rocket company, Blue Origin, in 2018.
'Patrick and Lauren have socialized with Jeff Bezos and his wife for a few years, because both [former] couples have houses in Seattle,' a source told Page Six after their affair was brought to light.
'Then Lauren was hired to work on one of Jeff's projects, Blue Origin, a space-launch company. She has been shooting aerial shots for Jeff.'
Despite the start of their romance being shrouded in accusations of blackmail and extortion, cheating allegations, and an explosive affair, the couple did not let it defer them.
In fact, after splitting from their respective partners, Jeff and Lauren didn't wait long to start flaunting their love all over the globe.
They were seen for the first time together publicly in May 2019, when photographers caught them enjoying a romantic date night in New York City, and they made their first official appearance as a couple at Wimbledon that July.
Since then, the couple has not tried to hide their romance, and for the last five years, they have continuously jetted off on a slew of lavish getaways together, shared tons of adorable, PDA-filled photos together on social media, gushed over one another nonstop in interviews, and attended a slew of star-studded events side by side.
