Orlando Bloom's Laid-Back Venice Vacation: Swims and Cocktails with A-Listers

WEDDING WEEKEND WOES: Orlando Bloom Parties Hard After Split from Katy Perry

In a dramatic turn of events, newly-single Orlando Bloom was spotted letting loose with A-list pals at Hotel Cipriani in Venice, Italy, just hours before Jeff Bezos's highly anticipated wedding. The Lord of the Rings star, 48, seemed to be embracing his newfound freedom as he mingled with Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Brady, Scooter Braun, and Edward Enninful by the hotel pool.

As the boys enjoyed tequila-fueled fun in the sun, Orlando kept a smile on his face despite his recent split from pop superstar Katy Perry. The pair's tumultuous relationship came to an end after nine years together, with six of those years spent engaged. The couple shares a daughter, Daisy, and their breakup has left fans wondering what went wrong.

Meanwhile, Katy Perry is facing uncertain times as her music career seems to be losing steam. Her latest album, 143, underperformed, and her recent trip to space with Blue Origin sparked backlash over its environmental impact and hefty price tag. The pop star, 40, even faced scrutiny for using the experience to promote her upcoming world tour.

Back in Venice, Orlando was seen chatting with Kim Kardashian and mingling with other wedding guests, including Meghan Markle's stylist Jamie Mizrahi. It's clear that the actor is moving on from his split and focusing on having a good time.

But what about Katy? Despite being close friends with Jeff Bezos's bride Lauren Sanchez, she failed to make an appearance at the highly anticipated nuptials. In a message of support on Instagram, Lauren expressed her desire for Katy to be there, but it seems like their friendship has hit a rough patch.

A host of Hollywood's biggest names have flocked to Venice this week for the wedding of Jeff Bezos, 61, and Lauren Sanchez, 55, which went ahead on Friday evening

Orlando's weekend getaway came to an end when he arrived at Jeff Bezos's wedding, where he was spotted mingling with other A-list guests. The Hotel Cipriani, one of Venice's most luxurious hotels, offers breathtaking views of San Giorgio and is known for its Michelin-starred food and massive pool.

The hotel has become a favorite among celebrities, including Brad Pitt, who only stays at the Hotel Cipriani when he visits Venice. With rooms starting at £2,500 per night, it's no wonder that 30 of Jeff's wedding guests chose to stay there for the weekend.

As the dust settles on Orlando's wild weekend, fans can't help but wonder what's next for the actor and his ex-wife Katy Perry. Will they continue to co-parent their daughter Daisy or maintain a friendly relationship? Only time will tell.
