Pop superstar Katy Perry and her former fiancé, actor Orlando Bloom, have demonstrated a heartwarming commitment to co-parenting during a festive family trip to London this week. The former couple, who parted ways in July after six years together, reunited to create Christmas memories with their six-year-old daughter, Daisy Dove.
A Day of Festive Fun in the Capital
The trio embarked on a classic British Christmas experience, spending a reported three hours at the iconic Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park on Tuesday. Both Perry and Bloom were seen cheerfully escorting Daisy on various rides, embracing the seasonal spirit despite the chilly weather. The actor was notably bundled up against the cold for the outing with his ex-partner and their young daughter.
Their festive day began earlier with a cultural treat. Just hours before the Winter Wonderland visit, the family attended a performance of Paddington: The Musical in London's West End. They were joined by Orlando's 14-year-old son, Flynn, whom he shares with ex-wife Miranda Kerr, making it a blended family affair. The group even posed for a memorable photo on stage with the iconic Paddington Bear himself.
Moving Forward with Mutual Respect
This public display of unity follows their official separation announcement earlier this year. Representatives for the pair confirmed to DailyMail.com in June that the former couple had been "shifting their relationship" to focus on co-parenting. They emphasised that their shared priority was, and always would be, raising Daisy with "love, stability, and mutual respect," and that they would continue to be seen together as a family.
Bloom addressed the split in a September interview on the Today show, stating, "We're great. We're going to be great. It's nothing but love." He expressed profound gratitude for their beautiful daughter. The Lord of the Rings star later offered advice on social media for those going through a hard time, urging them to take action, establish a routine, and "get out of your head if you're in your head."
New Chapters and Continued Family Bonds
While maintaining a strong co-parenting bond, both stars have also moved forward in their personal lives. Katy Perry has since gone public with a new romance with former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. The pair made their relationship Instagram official recently with a cosy selfie from a trip to Japan, after first being linked in July. A source told People magazine that Perry is "having a lot of fun" with Trudeau and that the connection is "exactly what she needs right now."
Despite these new beginnings, the focus during their UK visit remained firmly on family. The former couple, who began dating in 2016, got engaged in 2019 and welcomed Daisy in August 2020, have clearly prioritised their daughter's happiness above all else. Their festive London excursion serves as a powerful example of modern, amicable co-parenting in the spotlight.
