After shyly starting his career on the small British screen, cinema made it possible for him Orlando Bloom to make his popularity skyrocket. Successes of two sagas, Lord of the Rings AND pirates of the Carribean, in the early 2000s made him a highly sought-after actor… by the fairer sex. And contrary to what one might think, he does not like to flaunt his conquests and only swears by discretion. Even when he’s really in love. So who fell for her beautiful smile?
Orlando Bloom and Kate Bosworth
On the lover’s resumeOrlando Bloomif we rely on what we have read here and there, the first known name on the list is that of… Sienna Millerthe actress with whom he allegedly had a romance with in 2001 that lasted only a few months. But we have no proof.
Next year, Orlando experiences his first story that could be described as serious and official with a young American actress, Kate Bosworth. They met on the set of a Gap commercial. And it is she, then 19 years old, whom the film reveals Blue Crushwho experienced the beginning of the “Orlando phenomenon” firsthand.
“When we got to the airport, there were girls lifting up their shirts… It was really something!” It was surreal”, she told Andy Cohen. In 2004, in an interview with an English newspaper, the actor slipped up with this beautiful sentence: “I’m in love with love. Heaven is when you fall in love with someone and can’t stop thinking about them. » But in the summer of 2006, their paths diverged.

What will happen to Kate?
Not long after the split, Kate took comfort in English model and musician James Rousseau, and then dated Swedish actor Alexander Skarsgård. In 2013, she married the American director Michael Polish, from whom she divorced in 2021. She married the actor in 2023. Justin Long.
Orlando Bloom and Miranda Kerr
A few months after breaking up with Kate Bosworth, Orlando meets Miranda Kerr, Australian model, backstage at the Victoria’s Secret lingerie show in New York. But the young woman is not free. “He got my number from my agent because I didn’t want to give it to himMiranda said. Then he called me and said, ‘We can still be friends.’ I said, ‘Okay.’ We were friends for a while and then it became a little bit more.”
They keep their relationship a secret as long as possible; Orlando’s notoriety scares Miranda a bit. They debuted as a couple in April 2008 at Doncaster Day in Sydney. An opportunity for the actor to meet his (future) in-laws.
However, they got married only in July 2010. Intimate weddings. Six months later, they welcomed a little boy, Flynn Christopher, who owes his middle name to his mother’s ex-boyfriend, who died prematurely in a car accident. In October 2013, as divorce rumors intensified, Orlando Bloom and Miranda Kerr formalized their amicable split. It happened a few weeks ago…

What’s going on with Miranda?
Back in December 2013, there were rumors that Miranda Kerr had a relationship with an Australian billionaire, which was never proven (he is Mariah Carey’s short-term fiancé-to-be). In November 2014, she fell in love with Evan Spiegel, founder of Snapchat. They get married in 2017 and have since become parents to Hart, born in May 2018, and Myles, born in October 2019. A third boy is planned for 2024.
Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry
Forget the rumors about Selena Gomez and several other affairs… In January 2016, during the evening after the Golden Globe Awards, Orlando Bloom found himself on the receiving end of American singer Katy Perry. They unofficially “officialized” their romance five months later, first in Cannes, then in Sardinia (land of celebrities rowing episode !). They separated in March 2017 Orlando will look elsewhere…A few more months before they reconciled. We have to wait until September 26, 2018 before they step foot their first red carpet both (spoiler: it won’t happen as much anymore…) on February 14, 2019, they reached a milestone during the engagement.
They were supposed to get married at the beginning of summer 2020 in Japan (why simple?), but the pandemic hindered their plan. No problem, they already have a baby on the way, a girl who has been named Daisy Dovewho was born on August 27.
