Katy Perry’s Dating History, Her Famous Ex-Boyfriend

Katy Perry has been turning heads since she sang about kissing a girl in 2008 — and her real-life love stories have been equally thrilling to watch unfold.
Perry was married to comedian Russell Brand for one year before they split in December 2011. She followed up the relationship by dating John Mayer on and off from 2012 to 2014. The twosome reconnected, but called it quits for good in 2015.
The singer’s longest relationship to date was with Orlando Bloom. The Pirates of the Caribbean actor proposed in February 2019 after an on-off romance with Perry that began in 2016.

After nearly a decade together, Us Weekly confirmed in June 2025 that Perry was single again. “Katy is of course upset but is relieved to not have to go through another divorce, as that was the worst time in her life,” a source told Us after news broke of Perry and Bloom’s breakup.
