Orlando Bloom is letting himself loose at Jeff Bezos' wedding party following his split with pop star Katy Perry after nine years of being together. The Pirates of the Caribbean star has been creating waves on social media after he was spotted getting cosy with none other than Kim Kardashian.
Orlando Bloom was seen enjoying his time at the wedding ceremony as he was spotted initiating air kisses towards Kim K while having a glass of drink in his hand. Later the duo was joined by Khloe Kardashian and a few friends before the wedding ceremony. Bloom's gesture towards Kim came as a shock to the fans, considering their past, as previously the actor was caught checking out the reality TV star from behind.
Before coming to Venice to attend Bezos' wedding, Bloom and Kim were seen bonding in Paris along with Bezos' fiancée Lauren Sanchez. Later on, the duo were spotted catching up with each other at an Italian restaurant. As per Daily Mail reports, sources close to the actor called him the life of the party and revealed that he was ready to let himself loose due to Katy Perry's absence from the wedding despite being friends with Lauren Sanchez.
Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry have finally called it quits after being together for nine years. As per US Weekly reports, a source closer to the couple revealed, 'Katy and Orlando have split but are amicable. It's not contentious at the moment. Katy is, of course, upset but is relieved to not have to go through another divorce, as that was the worst time in her life."
Katy Perry was first linked to Orlando Bloom in 2016, and after a year of dating, the couple split up briefly before getting back together in 2018. Later on Valentine's Day of 2019, Bloom proposed to Perry in a very elaborate way, and the couple moved in with each other the next month. In August 2020, the couple announced the birth of their first child and was living happily until they called off their engagement on June 26.

Lauren Sanchez, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos' to-be-wife, wears $100,000 dress at wedding rehearsal dinner
Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and his fiancée Lauren Sanchez officially kicked off their multi-day wedding celebration in Venice, Italy, with a rehearsal dinner on Thursday (June 26) evening. While the event was expected to be full of glamour, the highlight turned out to be Sanchez's striking and highly structured gold gown. As the couple boarded a water taxi to the venue, all eyes were on Sanchez's elaborate outfit — a couture piece from Schiaparelli's 2025 collection, reportedly worth up to $100,000, reports DailyMail. What Lauren Sanchez wore for pre-wedding celebration Sanchez's dress featured a metallic corset bodice, designed to emphasize waist and toned frame, and a full embroidered skirt. The dress was not custom-made, but its exclusivity and price tag reflected Sanchez's fashion clout. The neckline was modest — a rare style choice for Sanchez — and the overall look was dramatic, drawing comparisons to masquerade ball attire. 'It seems designed to ensure that she will be the soirée's central attraction,' said one fashion commentator. However, its stiff structure drew comparisons to costume-like fashion and raised eyebrows for its discomfort. 'The shimmering gold corset… was as sumptuous as its silhouette was suffocating,' said one observer at the event. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Łącko: ten wysokiej klasy aparat słuchowy zdominuje rynek w 2025 roku DRUGIE UCHO Undo Bezos, on the other hand, appeared casual and comfortable in a crisp white shirt and Italian linen suit, Sanchez looked restrained in her couture ensemble. 'Bezos looks as comfortable as Sanchez looks contained,' said one onlooker. Just a day earlier, Sanchez had made her Venetian debut in a vintage 2003 Alexander McQueen navy gown — a much subtler look, likely sourced from her favorite Hollywood resale boutique, Timeless Vixen. That understated elegance stood in sharp contrast to the elaborate gold dress worn for Thursday's celebration. Guests arrive for Jeff Bezos-Lauren Sanchez wedding On Thursday (June 26) afternoon, several guests were seen leaving the Gritti Palace Hotel for the evening's events. According to CNN report, high profile guests at Bezos' wedding include US President Donald Trump's daughter Ivanka Trump, Kim Kardashian, Leonardo DiCaprio, Oprah Winfrey among others. Model Vittoria Ceretti, Oprah Winfrey, Bill Gates, Tom Brady, and Kendall and Kylie Jenner have also arrived. Guests are reportedly staying in luxury hotels and receiving welcome gifts, including Venetian glass and local sweets. The city has seen heightened security arrangements, with guards stationed around key locations like the Chiesa della Madonna dell'Orto and other venues involved in the events.

Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's Venice wedding in facts and figures
VENICE, Italy, - Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and journalist Lauren Sanchez invited scores of VIPs from film, finance and showbusiness to Venice this week for three days of wedding celebrations. Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's Venice wedding in facts and figures Here are some facts and figures about what has been dubbed the "Wedding of the Century". COST OF THE WEDDING The wedding celebrations for around 200-250 guests are expected to cost 40 million to 48 million euros , Luca Zaia, president of the Veneto region, which includes Venice, told reporters on Tuesday. Italy's tourism ministry said on Friday it carried out a study estimating the overall economic impact of the wedding at 957 million euros , including an 896 million euro benefit from "media visibility". The rest would come from direct or indirect spending related to the event, such as 28.4 million euros for hotel and location expenses and 17.6 million euros for transportation and other service expenses. VENICE WEDDING VENUES Celebrations began on Thursday evening in the cloisters of Madonna dell'Orto, a medieval church in the central district of Cannaregio that hosts masterpieces by 16th century painter Tintoretto. On Friday, the couple were due to exchange rings on the small island of San Giorgio, opposite St Mark's Square, accompanied by singing from Matteo Bocelli, son of the Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli. The main party is due on Saturday at the Arsenale, a former shipyard where vessels were built for the Venetian Republic's maritime empire. Several media outlets are reporting there will be performances by Lady Gaga and Elton John. WHICH CELEBRITIES ARE ATTENDING THE BEZOS WEDDING? U.S. President Donald Trump's daughter Ivanka and son-in-law Jared Kushner were among the first guests to arrive in Venice on Tuesday. They were joined by dozens of other A-listers including Bill Gates, Orlando Bloom, Tom Brady, the queen of Jordan, Oprah Winfrey, Kris Jenner and Kim and Khloe Kardashian as well as Domenico Dolce from Dolce & Gabbana. Bezos and Sanchez landed in Venice on Wednesday, arriving by helicopter. WHERE ARE THE WEDDING GUESTS STAYING IN VENICE? Five of the city's most luxurious hotels have been booked, including Cipriani on the island of Giudecca, and the St Regis near St Mark's Square. Bezos and Sanchez took up residence at the Aman, where rooms with a view of the Grand Canal go for at least 4,000 euros per night. The same hotel hosted U.S. actor George Clooney for his 2014 wedding with human rights lawyer Amal Alamuddin. BEZOS AND SANCHEZ CHARITY DONATIONS Bezos and Sanchez donated 3 million euros to three Venetian institutions, with 1 million euros each going to CORILA, an academic consortium that studies the lagoon ecosystem, UNESCO's local office, and the Venice International University.

The best that Bezos' money can buy: The billionaire's Venice wedding to Lauren Sánchez causes a stir
The sky itself is no limit for billionaire Jeff Bezos and fiancée Lauren Sánchez, who have traveled into space — and expectations are just about as high for their wedding in Venice. One of the world's most enchanting cities as backdrop? Check. Star-studded guestlist and tabloid buzz? Of course. Local flavor? You bet. Beyond that, the team of the world's fourth-richest man has kept details under wraps. Still, whispers point to events spread across the Italian lagoon city, adding complexity to what would have been a massive logistical undertaking even on dry land. On Thursday, dozens of private jets touched down at Venice's airport as yachts pulled into the city's famed waterways. Aboard were athletes, celebrities, influencers and business leaders, converging to revel in extravagance that is as much a testament to the couple's love as to their extraordinary wealth. The heady hoopla recalled the 2014 wedding in Venice of actor George Clooney to human rights lawyer Amal Alamuddin, when adoring crowds lined the canals and hundreds of well-wishers gathered outside City Hall. Not so for these nuptials, which have become a lightning rod for protests. Still, any desire to dampen the prevailing fever pitch has yet to materialize. Instead, the glitterati were set to party, and the paparazzi jostling for glimpses of the gilded gala. Whatever happens, it will be a wedding for the ages. Venice is famed for its network of canals, where gondoliers croon for lovestruck couples and even ambulances are aquatic. But water transport of everything from bouquets to guests makes Venice among the world's most challenging cities for a party, according to Jack Ezon, CEO of luxury travel advisory and event planner Embark Beyond. 'It's a very tight-knit community; everyone there knows everyone, and you need to work with the right people,' said Ezon, whose company has put on a dozen high-end events in Venice. 'There's very tight control, especially on movement there with boats.' It at least triples the cost versus staging the same soiree in Rome or Florence, he said. Veneto Gov. Luca Zaia was first to give an estimated tally for the Bezos/Sánchez bash: He told reporters this week the most recent total he saw was between 40 million and 48 million euros (up to $56 million). It's an eye-popping, jaw-dropping figure that's over 1,000 times the $36,000 average cost of American couples' weddings in 2025, according to wedding planning website Zola's annual report. Bezos' team has been tight-lipped about where these millions are going. When the youngest son of Asia's richest man married last July, performances by pop stars Rihanna and Justin Bieber pushed up the price tag. 'How do you spend $40 million on a three- or four-day event?' Ezon said. 'You could bring headliners, A-list performers, great DJs from anywhere in the world. You could spend $2 million on an incredible glass tent that's only there for 10 hours, but it takes a month to build,' or expand the celebration to local landmarks. There's no sign Sánchez and Bezos, the former CEO of Amazon, intend to take over any of Venice's tourist-thronged hotspots. Still, intense hand-wringing about the prospect prompted their wedding coordinator, Lanza & Baucina, to issue a rare statement calling those rumors false. On Thursday, a string of water taxis cut through the lagoon to bring Bezos, Sánchez and guests to the Madonna dell'Orto cloister as some onlookers cheered. Paparazzi followed in their own boats, trying to capture guests on camera — Oprah Winfrey, Kim Kardashian, Ivanka Trump, Tom Brady, Orlando Bloom — as police on jet skis patrolled. Local media have reported the couple will hold a ceremony Friday on San Giorgio island, across the lagoon basin from St. Mark's Square. Associated Press journalists circling the island Thursday saw workers assembling tents and private security personnel stationed at every landing point, including a newly installed have also reported a reception Saturday in the Arsenale, a former navy base best known as a primary venue for the Venice Biennale. There are some who say these two should not be wed in this city. They characterize the wedding as a decadent display of wealth in a world with growing inequality, and argue it's a shining example of tourism taking precedence over residents' needs, particularly affordable housing and essential services. Venice is also one of the cities most vulnerable to rising sea levels from climate change.'Venice is not just a pretty picture, a pretty postcard to please the needs and wants of the elite or of mass tourists, but it is an alive city, made of people who want to actually live there,' Stella Faye, a university researcher from Venice, said on Friday. About a dozen Venetian organizations — including housing advocates, anti-cruise ship campaigners and university groups — are protesting under the banner 'No Space for Bezos,' a play on words referring to his space exploration company Blue Origin and the bride's recent space flight. Greenpeace unfurled a banner in St. Mark's Square denouncing Bezos for paying insufficient taxes. Activists floated a bald-headed Bezos-inspired mannequin down Venice's Grand Canal atop an Amazon delivery box, its hands clenching fake cash. Authorities — from Venice's mayor to the nation's tourism minister — have dismissed the outcry, saying it ignores the visibility and economic boost the wedding brings. 'There will be photos everywhere, social media will go wild over the bride's dress, over the ceremony,' Italy's tourism minister, Daniela Santanchè, told the AP. 'All of this translates into a massive free publicity campaign. In fact, because they will spend a lot of money, they will enrich Venice — our shopkeepers, artisans, restauranteurs, hotels. So it's a great opportunity both for spending and for promoting Italy in the world.' As Amazon's CEO, Bezos usually avoided the limelight, frequently delegating announcements and business updates to his executives. Today he has a net worth of $231 billion, according to Forbes. In 2019, he announced he was divorcing his first wife, MacKenzie Scott, just before the National Enquirer published a story about an affair with Sánchez, a former TV news anchor. Sánchez filed for divorce the day after Bezos' divorce was finalized. He stepped down as CEO in 2021, saying he wished to spend more time on side projects, including Blue Origin, The Washington Post, which he owns, and his philanthropic initiatives. Sitting beside Sánchez during an interview with CNN in 2022, he announced plans to give away the majority of his wealth during his week, a Venetian environmental research association issued a statement saying Bezos' Earth Fund was supporting its work with an 'important donation.' CORILA, which seeks protection of the Venetian lagoon system, said contact began in April, well before any protests.
