The Halloween photo buzz comes after the actor’s ex released a song, which the public believes hints at the possible reason for the former couple’s split.
On November 9, 2025, media outlet Page Six shared a post showing actress Rachel Lynn Matthews and fellow star Orlando Bloom dressed in costumes for Halloween. While Bloom dressed up as a skeleton, Matthews embodied the actor’s ex, pop sensation Katy Perry.
The media has since sparked a flurry of reactions from netizens, with some finding humor in the situation, while others were taken aback and expressed disapproval.

The Halloween Ensemble That Caused an Online Uproar
In the shared snapshots, Bloom appears in a skeletal outfit complete with dramatic black face paint, flashing a wide grin beside Matthews, who is unmistakably styled as Perry during her appearance on Blue Origin’s first all-female spaceflight.
Donning a form-fitting, metallic blue astronaut suit with an American flag patch and flowing jet-black hair, Matthews playfully channels the pop star’s bold look. One particularly striking image shows her kissing the ground as Perry did when the crew landed back on Earth.
‘Hysterical and Offensive’: Netizens Split Over the Halloween Stunt
The Halloween photos quickly became a lightning rod for online commentary, with netizens sounding off in every direction. Some couldn’t help but laugh at Matthews’ unexpected bold approach. “Thats [sic] hilarious!!” declared one netizen, while another observed, “She looks just like her…”
Echoing the sentiment, someone else wrote, “This is hysterical and offensive and I can’t wait to see what’s next 😂😂😂” — capturing the mix of humor and controversy many felt. One person even went so far as to say, “This is the absolute best.”
However, not all reactions were lighthearted. Others took issue with the costume’s implications, especially given Perry’s shared history with Bloom. “Rude,” read a short but pointed comment. Another spectator pushed back more strongly, commenting, “This is wrong!!! Katy is the mother of his child.”
“Letting your new girlfriend make fun of the mother of your daughter is just weird to me lol [sic],” expressed someone else. One person found the situation outright baffling, stating, “That’s just bizarre. The fact Orlando would be comfortable with this is very telling.”

The Timing of It All
While the Halloween antics sparked a wave of amusement and unease online, the timing of it all added another layer of intrigue — especially as it followed closely on the heels of new music from Katy Perry that some believe pulls back the curtain on her past with Orlando Bloom.
Released on November 7, 2025, Perry’s new single “Bandaids” quickly sparked speculation that its lyrics reflect the emotional unraveling of her long-term relationship with Bloom.

“Hand to God, I promise I tried. There’s no stone left unturned,” Perry sings in the track. “It’s not what you did. It’s what you didn’t. You were there, but you weren’t.”
She continues, “Got so used to you letting me down. No use tryna send flowers now,” adding, “Telling myself you’ll change, you don’t. Band-Aids over a broken heart.”

As the song builds, she sings, “It’s not that complicated. To ask me how my day is. I’m flatlining trying to save this,” deepening the portrait of a relationship strained by emotional neglect.

YouTube Explodes with Emotional Reactions
The song’s release sparked intense speculation online almost immediately. One YouTube comment read, “So you’re telling me this was the song after they seperated [sic]?! I’m sobbing so hard right now.”
A spectator wrote, “The message is clear in this video. Everything she’s done in the past year has led to disasters that unintentionally hurt her.”

Meanwhile, others praised the songwriting itself. “THE POWER OF Lyrics!!” one commenter declared. Another added, “Behind all the fun easter eggs and symbolism, the jabs to Bloom and to herself, the lyrics work just as well against the never satisfied [sic] haters. Well done Queen, this is REAL!”
As the comments continued to pour in, one thing became clear: listeners see more than just a pop anthem — they hear a confessional, and perhaps, a final word on a love once sung loud. Whether through heartbreak or healing, Perry seems to be turning life’s unraveling into art, and fans are listening more closely than ever.
The emotional weight of the musician’s new song now seems even more poignant as Bloom broke his silence, offering his own perspective on the current state of their relationship.
He spoke about his split from Perry, just as her rumored romance with a Canadian politician was making headlines. Still, the actor is keeping a positive outlook after parting ways with her.

Bloom said he is focusing on what matters most, his family and career. He noted, “I’m great, man. I’m so grateful. We have the most beautiful daughter. You know, when you leave everything on the field, like I did in this movie, I feel grateful for all of it. And we’re great. We’re going to be great. It’s nothing but love.”

Bloom and Perry Focus on Family After Their Split
The “Pirates of the Caribbean” star, who was promoting his intense new boxing drama “The Cut,” appeared to be finding peace in the aftermath of his separation from the 41-year-old musical superstar.
Bloom and Perry confirmed their breakup in July 2025, bringing an end to one of entertainment’s most iconic and unpredictable romances. Their representatives announced the split in a joint statement on July 3.

The statement explained that Bloom and Perry had gradually shifted their relationship to focus on co-parenting. It reads, “They will continue to be seen together as a family, as their shared priority is — and always will be — raising their daughter with love, stability and mutual respect.”
The Couple’s Highs and Heartbreak
The couple’s relationship was marked by both high-profile milestones and periods of separation. Bloom and Perry first began dating in 2016 but went their separate ways the following year before reconciling in 2018.
The actor then proposed on Valentine’s Day in 2019. Just as fans anticipated a fairy-tale wedding, the COVID-19 pandemic derailed their plans. However, in March 2020, Perry made headlines with a bombshell music video reveal.

Her emotional single “Never Worn White” ended with a reveal of her baby bump, and just five months later, the couple welcomed their daughter in August 2020.
Now, after the breakup, Bloom has remained steadfastly focused on his daughter and his craft, while Perry’s globe-trotting tour and whirlwind social calendar have kept her firmly in the spotlight.

Perry’s Surprising Connection to a Former Prime Minister
But as Bloom leans into family life, Perry raised eyebrows when she was spotted enjoying a cozy dinner with none other than former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. The unlikely duo dined at Le Violon in Montreal on July 28, just weeks after the breakup became public.
The 53-year-old politician and the chart-topping singer shared cocktails, lobster, and laughter before slipping into the kitchen to greet the staff, a move that only fueled speculation of a budding romance.
Photos from the private date set social media ablaze, with fans and pundits alike questioning whether this was more than just a friendly encounter.
At One Point, the Rumored Spark Had Supposedly Fizzled
Sources claim Trudeau was not pleased with the publicity, describing it as an unwanted spotlight on what was meant to be a low-key first outing. Perry, however, reportedly seemed less concerned by the exposure.
Despite his initial reservations, Trudeau was back in the public eye two days later when he attended Perry’s Montreal stop on her Lifetimes Tour.
Accompanied by his daughter, he was seen singing and dancing along to Perry’s biggest hits, including “Firework” and “Dark Horse,” from a highly visible area near the stage.
More Details Surrounding Perry and Trudeau’s Connection
Insiders say their texts were flying back and forth throughout July, but as the summer faded, so did Perry and Trudeau’s frequent communication.
A source shared, “She’s busy, he’s busy. They have a lot going on, and the newness has worn off. But there’s nothing negative about it. They just aren’t in constant communication anymore. That could change, but for now, it is what it is. It has cooled off.”
Even so, there’s no bad blood between the pair. “They still have nothing bad to say about each other, and in fact [sic] I feel like she’s been saying really nice things about him,” the insider added.
Internet Explodes with Wild Speculation
Despite rumors that the romance had already cooled, the sight of the singer dining alone with a former world leader was more than enough to send fans into an absolute frenzy.

One wrote, “I thought he was married…,” while another asked, “Isn’t he married??” Someone else stated, “That was fast….. [sic].”
A fellow observer pointed out a resemblance between Trudeau and Bloom, writing, “He looks like her ex.” Echoing that sentiment, another commenter observed, “I think he’s her type looks a bit like Orlando lol. [sic].”

Justin Trudeau Spotted Sharing Cozy Family Moment with Ex Sophie Amid Buzz Over Katy Perry Romance
Caught in the crossfire of love? Justin Trudeau’s sighting during a cozy familial moment with his estranged wife comes amid the pop star addressing her love life during a show on October 13, 2025.
Recently, Sophie Grégoire Trudeau, the estranged wife of former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, shared photos on her Instagram Story of a family dinner.
Among the loved ones apparent in one of the photos was Justin, who has recently made headlines for his reported romance with pop sensation Katy Perry.

Candles, Carrots, and Family Camaraderie
In the since-expired Instagram Story snaps, the warmth of the family moment was unmistakable. One image captured a beautifully set wooden dining table adorned by the soft glow of candles, its rustic charm accentuated by carefully placed dinnerware and a sculpture centerpiece depicting two elk mid-battle — a poetic metaphor, perhaps, for the tensions quietly simmering beneath the surface.

Another image showed Justin standing between two loved ones. All three smiled over plates of delectable food — turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, carrots, and peas — underscoring a sense of closeness and tradition.
Though Sophie offered no captions or direct mention of Justin in the images, the snapshots painted a vivid picture of familial unity. They appeared to be taken in an intimate, lived-in space, suggesting that despite the former couple’s public separation, shared moments like these remain meaningful.

Sun, Skin, and Scandal: Inside Justin Trudeau and Katy Perry’s Yacht Getaway
But rewind just a few days earlier — and the scene couldn’t have been more different. In images circulated online, Katy and Justin were seen packing on the PDA (otherwise known as public displays of affection) aboard Katy’s yacht, the Caravelle, off the sun-drenched coast of Santa Barbara.
In one snap, Justin plants a kiss on Katy’s cheek as she clings to him affectionately. Another shows Katy, donning a dark one-piece swimsuit, leaning into Justin, shirtless with a pair of jeans on, as he wraps his arm around her waist — his hand resting on her backside.
While a representative for Katy declined to comment on the nature of their relationship, the sizzling chemistry between the pair said more than enough. And truthfully, it wasn’t their first romantic run-in.
A Lobster Dinner in Montreal
Back in July, Katy and Justin were spotted enjoying dinner at Le Violon, an upscale restaurant nestled in the heart of Montreal. In video footage obtained by TMZ, Katy leaned in attentively across the table, seemingly engrossed in conversation with Justin.
According to an eyewitness at the scene, the pair lingered over cocktails and shared multiple dishes — one reportedly featuring lobster — while maintaining an air of privacy. Security guards stationed nearby appeared to monitor the dinner discreetly through mirrored glass.
The pièce de résistance? The chef came to greet Katy and Justin, who even stepped into the kitchen after their meal to offer personal thanks to the staff.
At the time, Katy was in the midst of the Canadian leg of her tour, with scheduled performances in Ottawa and Montreal. Just days after their cozy dinner in Montreal, Justin made another headline-grabbing appearance — this time in the audience of Katy’s sold-out show at Bell Centre.
He was seen enjoying the performance alongside his 16-year-old daughter, Ella-Grace Trudeau, in what many viewed as a telling gesture of support.
Photos and videos posted to social media captured Justin grinning as he watched the pop icon light up the stage, his attention fully locked in as Katy performed hit after hit. In one particularly circulated clip, he could be seen mouthing along to her chart-topping single, “Dark Horse.”
A Love Lost: Katy Perry’s Breakup with Orlando Bloom
The speculation surrounding Katy and Justin’s relationship emerged on the heels of a significant life shift for the artist. In July, just before romance whispers began swirling, Katy and her longtime partner, actor Orlando Bloom, officially confirmed their split after more than a decade together.
The two — who had been engaged and shared many public milestones — are also parents to daughter Daisy Dove Bloom. In a statement provided to People, representatives for the ex-couple clarified that the decision to part ways had been unfolding over several months.

“Due to the abundance of recent interest and conversation surrounding Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry’s relationship, representatives have confirmed that Orlando and Katy have been shifting their relationship over the past many months to focus on co-parenting,” the statement reads.
It also emphasizes that while their romantic chapter had closed, the duo’s shared priority remains “raising their daughter with love, stability, and mutual respect.”
Justin and Sophie Trudeau’s 2023 Separation
As for Justin and Sophie, their romantic chapter also came to an end — more than two years ago. They announced their separation in 2023. The couple — who married in Montreal in 2005 and share three children — revealed the news in a joint Instagram statement, affirming their continued commitment to family.
“We remain a close family with deep love and respect for each other and for everything we have built and will continue to build,” the message divulges.

Justin’s office later confirmed that while the pair had signed a separation agreement, they intended to maintain a united front publicly, with plans to co-parent and occasionally vacation together as a family.
Justin and Sophie’s love story saw them tie the knot in a fairytale ceremony in Montreal’s Sainte-Madeleine d’Outremont church. Bagpipers, Mounties in full dress, and nearly 200 guests gathered to witness their vows, while Sophie, dressed in a dramatic lace-trimmed gown, declared herself “the luckiest woman in the world.”

Sophie Trudeau, a former TV personality and passionate advocate for mental health and eating disorder awareness, stepped away from her official duties following the announcement.
Despite their marital split, the two have emphasized a respectful partnership — something still visible in their most recent family gathering.

Katy Perry Drops the Mic, and a Hint
And just when things couldn’t get more tangled, Katy Perry herself added fuel to the fire. Just days after the headline-making yacht photos surfaced, she appeared to drop a cheeky hint about her love life during a stop on her Lifetimes Tour at London’s O₂ Arena.
A Surprise Proposal During Her Concert
The 40-year-old musician stunned the crowd when she invited an English fan named Darren on stage, only to be met with a surprise proposal. Holding up a sign that read “Katy Perry, will you marry me?” the eager admirer caught the singer completely off guard.

But Katy quickly set the record straight with her trademark wit. “You heard I was single? That’s interesting,” she told the fan, before jokingly adding, “You know you really should have asked me about 48 hours ago.”

As the audience erupted in laughter, Katy broke into a playful rendition of fellow famous singer JoJo’s 2006 hit, singing, “He’s just a little too late.” Her actions seemed to reference her reported romance with Justin.

According to a source, the pair initially bonded in Montreal in July 2025, when Katy was still reeling from her breakup with Orlando.
At the time, she wasn’t looking to date, but she and Justin kept in touch and realized they shared many interests, the insider said.
