Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom are steeling themselves for a custody war over their beloved poodle after their split.

For those unaware, the 40-year-old American singer-songwriter and 48-year-old Hollywood actor started dating shortly after their fight over a burger at a Golden Globes afterparty in 2016. They briefly ended their relationship in 2017 but ended up rekindling their romance by February 2018.

In 2019, Bloom proposed to Perry on Valentine’s Day and were ready to tie the knot; however, their nuptials were delayed due to the COVID-19pandemic. In March 2020, she announced her pregnancy and gave birth to their daughter, Daisy Dove Bloom, the same year in August.

Almost five years later, in July 2025, the couple confirmed their separation, stating their focus has now been shifted to co-parenting with mutual respect.

Radar Online reported that Perry and Bloom’s truce over their teacup poodle named Biggie Smalls is about to be destroyed soon in an ugly custody battle because the Troy star is brokenhearted since he was the one who brought the dog home.

“They’ve had a few dogs together and fostered a few, but Biggie Smalls is Orlando’s dog, at least that’s the way he sees it,” the source revealed.

“He got the dog last year and refuses to part with him. Besides, he thinks Biggie Smalls loves him more,” they added.

“Orlando says he bathes him, takes him to the vet, and cleans up after him when he makes a mess, which isn’t very often because Orlando has him trained,” the insider said. “The way Orlando sees it, he does more for the dog, so he should have him.”

The Unconditionally hitmaker also “loves Biggie Smalls, too, and word is she wants to keep the dog or at the very least be part of the dog’s life on a part-time basis,” the source stated.

“There’s no way Orlando is giving up full custody of Biggie Smalls,” the insider concluded.

Prince Andrew’s former girlfriend, Lady Victoria Hervey, has stirred controversy with remarks about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s marriage.

She told Closer Magazine that she is “amazed” the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s marriage has lasted this long.

The socialite claimed Sussexes relationship “seems to have been quite rocky” and suggested it may have endured “only because of the kids.”

Harry and Meghan’s relationship “seems to have been quite rocky” lately, said Hervey, adding, “I’m amazed their marriage has lasted as long as this.”

“I’m sure it’s only because of the kids, because it seems to have been quite rocky for a while. She got him to move his whole life, and now she’s back where she grew up,” she added.

During a public appearance in New York City at the Time100 Summit, Meghan Markle gushed over her husband and credited Harry’s support as a key source of strength.

“A confession I can share with you today is that I’m the happiest I’ve ever been,” Meghan said.

“To have a husband and a partner who is so supportive and kids who are healthy and happy, I never imagined at this point I would feel so happy and grateful, and I really do.”
