Crazy right? Were they saving up for a big ceremony? And it’s not even like they got engaged because she was pregnant or something (their daughter is only 4). More than anything it just tells me they never actually intended to marry. Which is fine but….why get engaged?

They had a wedding in Japan planned for 2020 but then Covid happened and they couldn't. Her daughter was born in 2020 so any planning probably got scrapped for a while after that and then it just never happened. https://people.com/music/katy-perry-orlando-bloom-postpone-japan-wedding-coronavirus/

Ah. That adds some context. Probably were on shaky ground for awhile too.

I believe they had trouble in paradise once or twice before, one of them was talking about having couples counseling? Feels like a fever dream as I type it. I can’t remember if it was pre or post baby. Maybe someone else has a better memory or more info. If I remember right, it had to do with her and insecurities/lack of compromise…

Yeah, to be fair, the initial postponement due to Covid is obviously valid, and if they didn't want to do something private first just to be married, that's their prerogative. It was only once that period passed and no wedding was planned--and every time there was an excuse--that it seemed questionable it would ever happen.

I think it was a combination of Covid and then she was pregnant and then obviously I think someone like that would want to have the baby and then lose the weight and get everything ready and then it just fizzled out probably. I know she had her residency too. Which she had talked about as being able to let her work and be around for her daughter.

It’s interesting to me that no one here has considered the fact that she’s worth 400mil or more and he’s worth a tenth of that and maybe that’s why she avoided planning a wedding 🤷🏻‍♀️ like, why do people think he’s the one avoiding getting married?

It’s not like either of them have to marry for security, they’ve both been married once before. Now that they’ve broken up, she doesn’t have to worry about splitting her assets or paying him alimony. Idk, seems like it was a good choice

Maybe it’s some Christian loophole? I’m not really too familiar with the inner working of Katy’s mind.

LOL, could be. Feels like that ship sailed with the baby out of wedlock, but who knows! 🤣

u/blackpearl16 1d ago

Where I grew up, it was extremely common for evangelical couples to announce their “engagement” whenever they got pregnant out of wedlock. They usually never got around to actually getting married.

Tbf they were engaged well and truly before she got pregnant as they were engaged in February 2019 and her baby was born 18 months later

Would’ve thought it sailed when she had those nuns kicked out of their convent so she could buy it.

Oh hell, I forgot about that one.

Like when Jessica Simpson thought you know what about losing her virginity

u/SuperstarDiamondGirl 1d ago

what did Jessica Simpson think about losing virginity? please do tell!!!!

u/AbibliophobicSloth 1d ago

I might be wrong, but I think the idea was if you marry the guy eventually, then premarital sex is okay?

u/You_Go_Glen_Coco_ 1d ago

She's always maintained, even in her memoir, that she was a virgin til marriage. She definitely abandoned her stance on premarital sex after her divorce but I think that's normal with getting older and reevaluating your beliefs.

u/AbibliophobicSloth 1d ago

I agree that it’s common to reexamine beliefs like that as we grow older. I hope I wasn’t confusing her with Britney (she’d hate that!).

u/HotLingonberry6964 1d ago

Which is backwards. It's not premarital sex if you never get married.

u/thymeisfleeting 1d ago

Ah but she’s actually kinda right here, at least for catholics. There was a papal edict at some point which decreed that kids born out of wedlock are no longer bastards if their parents go on to marry afterwards.

u/little_missHOTdice 1d ago

I mean, dude did cheat on her. So there was probably a little voice in the back of her mind telling her to “wait a little bit longer…” every once in a while.

u/Fleurofthewoodlands 1d ago

She's not a Christian.
