Orlando Bloom reacted to a post trolling Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau amid rumors they're dating.
The two made headlines last week when they were seen dining at a restaurant in Montreal, followed by Justin's appearance at the Montreal stop of Katy's Lifetimes tour. A source subsequently told People that "they are interested in each other" — however, "it will take a while to see where this goes."

"She is traveling around the world, and he is figuring out his life now that he is no longer prime minister of Canada," the source said, "but there is an attraction. They have a lot in common." Among their shared interests are "music" and being "idealists" seeking to make "improvements" to the world.

Well, amid the rumors, the Onion poked fun at Katy and Justin by joking that Orlando had struck up his own romance with another politician — namely, former German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

In an Instagram post containing a digitally-made photo of Orlando and Angela seated together, the outlet wrote, "Just weeks after announcing his split from fiancée Katy Perry, English actor Orlando Bloom was photographed Friday dining with former German Chancellor Angela Merkel. 'Angela kept Orlando laughing all night—he couldn't keep his eyes off her!' said an insider source who spotted the pair sipping wine, slurping oysters, and splitting a decadent piece of chocolate layer cake at a Michelin-starred restaurant."
Orlando, who split from Katy in June after nine years and one child together, took to the comments to react, sharing a series of handclap emojis.

It's no surprise to see Orlando joking around, as he's said to have a friendly relationship with Katy in the wake of their split. According to a source, it was especially important for them to remain cordial so they could be around their daughter, Daisy, 4, "separately or together."
"Katy has every intention of maintaining a positive and respectful relationship with Orlando," one source said. "He's the father of their daughter and that will always come first for her."

The source added, "They've been through a lot together and while they've decided to go their separate ways, there's still a mutual respect between them. They're still very much in touch and co-parenting Daisy together. For the sake of their daughter, they're committed to keeping things amicable."
Honestly, good for them, and shout out to Orlando for being a good sport! Let me know your thoughts in the comments.
