Orlando Bloom was spotted heading inside the Met Gala after party held at Zero Bond in New York City on Monday around 1am beside beauty influencer Meredith Duxbury.
At 49, the Lord of the Rings alum is 22 years older than the scantily-clad content creator, who vamped it up in a black-lace dress boosting her cleavage, along with matching stiletto heels.
On September 22, Rizzoli will publish Duxbury's 240-page book, Get Ready with Meredith: Skin, Glam, Fashion, Get Unready with Me.
The YouTube vlogger previously dated cosmetic dentist Brandon Remer and Australian model Douglas Joseph.
However, a source told TMZ that Bloom didn't know Duxbury and actually attended the fash-bash with Swiss model Luisa Laemmel, whom he attended Super Bowl LX with on February 8.
The muscular Englishman has welcomed two children - 15-year-old son Flynn and five-year-old daughter Daisy - with his ex-wife Miranda Kerr and his ex-fiancée Katy Perry.
Bloom and the 41-year-old pop star announced they split on June 26 after nine on/off years of dating.
The Deep Cover action star and Perry (born Katheryn Hudson) previously split for 10 months between March 2017 and January 2018, and he originally popped the question to her with a daisy-shaped, $5M Neil Lane engagement ring in 2019.
In 2017, the 13-time Grammy nominee notoriously ranked Bloom second to John Mayer as her favorite sexual partners during a game of 'Spill Your Guts or Fill Your Guts' on CBS' The Late Late Show with James Corden.
Perry - who ended her 14-month marriage to disgraced comedian Russell Brand in 2012 - has been dating former Prime Minister of Canada Justin Trudeau for the last eight months.
The 54-year-old politician is still technically married to his estranged wife Sophie Grégoire Trudeau, whom he legally separated from in August 2023.
The childhood friends continue to co-parent their three kids - son Xavier, 18, daughter Ella-Grace, 17, and son Hadrien, 12 - they welcomed during their 18-year marriage.
Bloom will likely attend the world premiere of Werner Herzog's Ireland-set drama Bucking Fastard during the Cannes Film Festival running May 12-23 in France, as he portrays the character of Gareth Mulroney.
Kate Mara, Rooney Mara and Domhnall Gleeson will also star in the drama about twin sisters Jean and Joan Holbrooke.
In January, Variety reported that the Actor Award winner had joined Ethan Hawke and Zaya Guarani in Claudio Borrelli's Amazon jungle thriller, The Last of the Tribe.
Bloom - who boasts 6.9 million Instagram followers - is also every bit the influencer with paid partnerships for brands like Porsche Design, MSC Cruises US and TEMPLA.
