Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom Are Officially Engaged, And You Should See The Ring

They would be legendary lovers: Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom are officially engaged.


Both the singer and actor took to Instagram on Friday for heartfelt posts featuring a photo of a teary Perry and joyful Bloom, with a sea of red heart-shaped balloons in the background.


Though the pair only got around to sharing the exhilarating news on Friday morning, Bloom popped the question on Thursday – Perry's mother Mary Hudson excitedly shared "Look who got engaged on Valentine's Day!" On her own Facebook.


The posts have since been made private.


Perry’s caption read simply “full bloom,” while Bloom’s talked volumes with “Lifetimes.” Perry referenced her stunning flower-shaped engagement ring with the remark, a unique setup that generally seems to feature a ruby set inside the middle of a few surrounding diamonds. The massive rock is definitely reminiscent of Perry’s unique fashion. However there's also certainly a double meaning here, given her husband-to-be's last name. Leave it to the “Teenage Dream” singer to serve puns while confirming her engagement.


Bloom took to the platform to share a heartwarming quote, apparently teasing what was to come for the couple.


“A shallow person will have only shallow relationships," he shared. "Real love isn't one individual clinging to another , it may only be fostered between two strong people secure in their individuality. Antoine de Saint- Exupery, author of The Little Prince wrote in a work called Wind, Sand and Stars, ‘Love isn't two people gazing at each other, yet two people looking ahead with each other in the same direction.”


The emotionally charged Insta posts certainly let's know exactly how excited both parties are about the development. The pair have been dating off and on since 2016, as soon as they were spotted flirting at a Golden Globes after-party in January. Only a month immediately after that, People confirmed the two were officially dating. Right after a brief split in February 2017, the couple resumed their romance around per year soon after that.


In a recent interview with Paper Magazine, Perry noted that she And grow are currently living with each other, describing herself And flourish as "hoarders by nature." Perry apparently likes to declutter, though, admitting that "her boyfriend" didn't know she threw away his toiletry bag as soon as he had been gone. Hopefully this little quirk won't be something the newly-engaged pair don't find themselves squabbling about in the future!


This is the second time both Perry And flourish will walk down the aisle, as Perry split from ex-husband Russell Brand in 2012, And grow from supermodel ex-wife Miranda Kerr in 2013. Hopefully the second time's the charm for the happy couple. Congratulations, Katy and Orlando!
