Orlando Bloom appears to be turning to reflection and mindfulness following his reported split from long-time partner Katy Perry.
The 48-year-old actor posted a pair of cryptic quotes to his Instagram Story on June 30, just days after headlines revealed that he and the 40-year-old singer had ended their engagement after nearly a decade together.
His first post was a quote attributed to Gautama Buddha: “Each day is a new beginning. What we do today is what matters most.”
He followed that up with another inspirational note, this time from Japanese author Daisaku Ikeda: “The important thing is to take that first step. Bravely overcoming one small fear gives you the courage to take on the next.”
The back-to-back posts seem to suggest a theme of fresh starts and resilience, as Bloom navigates this new chapter in his personal life.
Just a few days earlier, Perry hinted at her own emotional state, sharing a cryptic social media update captioned “mood” after the news broke.
Neither Bloom nor Perry has officially commented on the breakup, but their respective posts are painting a picture of transition, healing, and perhaps a little self-discovery.
