Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom BACK ON TRACK to wed as therapy helped them steady rocky relationship
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom are reportedly "back on track" after their relationship hit the rocks and delayed their wedding plans, a source has claimed.
The 'Dark Horse' hitmaker, 37, and 'The Outpost' actor, 45, were apparently strained by career commitments owing to their increasingly busy schedules, the insider said, adding that it was hard for the couple to "balance work and family" until they sought therapy sessions that helped them realize that "if they were going to make it, they would have to compromise."

Radar Online reported how Katy showed her dedication when she and their two-year-old daughter Daisy joined Orlando in Kentucky this summer where he was filming 'Red Right Hand.' Meanwhile, Orlando has also been more hands-on as his lover returned to judging 'American Idol'. The singer has reportedly also been busy with her Sin City residency Play at the new Resorts World hotel, which kicked off in December 2021. "Counseling helped, and made the way for them to get back to wedding planning," one insider told Radar Online. "They both agree that counseling helped them see things from another perspective."
Orlando popped the question to Katy on Valentine's Day 2019 with a romantic proposal. "We went to dinner, and I thought we were gonna see some art after dinner, but we pulled up to a helicopter … It was really sweet. He asked me to marry him in a helicopter," she revealed on an episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live! The 'Harleys in Hawaii' singer said the celebration continued when they landed. "Everybody had an earpiece," Katy gushed. "We go downstairs, and my whole family was there, and all of my friends. He did so well."
The 'Fireworks' hitmaker addressed the rumors of a secret marriage during an appearance on 'Kyle and Jackie O Air' in February. Host Kyle Sandilands enquired, "Have you and Orlando secretly married, or are you just stalling? Or are you undecided? What exactly is going on there?" Katy responded, "Well, no. It's a destination location... we're still trying for it to work out." She went on to say, "But every couple of months it's like: New variant! New variant! New variant!"
However, she did say it would be time to "celebrate" once the pandemic ended. Meanwhile, a previous source said the couple is having so much fun that they just might expand their family. "Katy and Orlando are so happy. They're doing very well as a couple and have gotten into a great groove," the insider said at the time. "They want to expand their family. They're both super supportive of each other's careers and love parenting together."

Orlando and Katy first connected while bonding over an In-N-Out burger at the 2016 Golden Globes. The A-list pair weren't on to get engaged and welcomed daughter Daisy in August 2020. "The couple and their love for one another had grown to a level they didn't even expect since the arrival of their daughter," a source told Entertainment Tonight at the time.
Katy was previously married to actor and comedian Russell Brand before divorcing in 2012. Meanwhile, Orlando was married to model Miranda Kerr and split in 2013, two years after welcoming their son Flynn.
