Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom: Which Star Has the Higher Net Worth?
After nearly a decade together, Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have reportedly called off their engagement. The couple met in 2016 and, after a brief separation, got engaged in 2019. Bloom has starred in a number of films, including major franchises, and Perry spent years dominating the charts. Which of them has a higher net worth?
Who has the higher net worth, Katy Perry or Orlando Bloom?
Just days after graduating from drama school, Bloom received his breakthrough role, Legolas in The Lord of the Rings trilogy. He reprised this role in The Hobbit films over a decade later. He starred in another successful franchise, the Pirates of the Caribbean films, beginning in 2003.
Bloom has acted in many major motion pictures over the years, including Troy, Kingdom of Heaven, and The Three Musketeers. He took on a television role in the 2019 series Carnival Row. According to Celebrity Net Worth, he is worth $40 million.
Perry began her career in 2001 with the release of her debut album, Katy Hudson. The record’s low sales inspired her to move from contemporary Christian to secular music. She continued trying to make it in the music industry until her career took off in 2007 with the release of One of the Boys. She went on to release another five albums, with Teenage Dream, Prism, and Witness debuting at number one.
Perry also served as a judge on American Idol for seven seasons and performed a hugely successful residency in Las Vegas. Perry reportedly has a net worth of $400 million, ten times greater than Bloom’s.
Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have ended their relationship
Perry and Bloom have ended their relationship after nine years. The couple met at a Golden Globes after party in 2016.
“I met my boyfriend over In-N-Out. We were at the Golden Globes and we weren’t together,” she said during an episode of American Idol (per People). “So I had my security guard grab 10 In-N-Outs and all of a sudden I see my boyfriend’s hand — he wasn’t even sitting at our table — he just swoops in and he grabs it and I was like, ‘Hey that’s my burger!'”
The couple broke up in 2017 but remained friendly. By 2018, they’d reunited and, in 2019, Bloom proposed.
The couple shares a daughter
In 2020, Perry and Bloom welcomed a daughter, Daisy Bloom. Perry said motherhood completely changed her life.
“It’s just the best in the world. It’s the game-changer,” she told People. “My heart is so full, finally.”
She said she prioritized time with her daughter when she was not working. Their time together brought her a great deal of joy.
“That hour or two of just sitting, playing, pretending and having a tea party — it gives back so much to see their imagination come to life, and to put the phone down and press pause,” she said. “That makes me really happy.”
Bloom also has a son with his ex-wife, Miranda Kerr.
