BREAKING NEWS Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom finally break silence on split after nine-year romance
The pair began dating in 2016 and got engaged on Valentine's Day 2019, before welcoming their four-year-old daughter Daisy Dove into the world.
After the couple were trailed by rumors about the state of their relationship, it was widely reported Wednesday that they have gone their separate ways.
Pouring fuel on the fire, Orlando, 48, went alone to Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez 's star-studded wedding in Venice last Friday, with Katy in Australia on tour.
Orlando shared a cryptic Instagram post about 'loneliness' and 'darkness' this week, while Katy was seen breaking down in tears onstage at her last Australian show.
Now, representatives for the pair have confirmed to DailyMail.com that 'Orlando and Katy have been shifting their relationship over the past many months to focus on co-parenting. They will continue to be seen together as a family, as their shared priority is - and always will be - raising their daughter with love, stability, and mutual respect.'
