Orlando Bloom shared social media posts from a psychiatrist about “loneliness,” “darkness,” and “sadness” in the wake of his recent split with pop star Katy Perry. The pair went their separate ways on June 26, as revealed by People. Bloom, who played Legolas in The Lord of the Rings, is apparently feeling reflective, re-sharing quotes by Swiss psychiatrist and psychotherapist Carl Jung, on Instagram. “Loneliness does not come from having no people about one, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself,” one quote, shared originally by @sapienkind, reads. The pair met at a Golden Globes afterparty in 2016 and started dating before splitting in 2017. They got back together and got engaged in 2019. The coronavirus pandemic derailed their planned wedding in Japan in 2020. “Orlando had planned this for a while,” a source told People at the time. “He wanted it all to be special.” The same year, in August, the pair had a baby girl, Daisy Dove.
