Orlando Bloom was photographed with Rachel Lynn Matthews on Halloween, where Matthews dressed as his ex, Katy Perry. Bloom wore a skeleton costume while Matthews donned a blue bodysuit and black wig, resembling Perry's outfit from her Blue Origin spaceflight.
The images, shared on Matthews' Instagram Stories, show Bloom placing his arm around Matthews, who is known for her role in Happy Death Day. The costume reflected Perry’s iconic look from her 11-minute mission to the edge of space.
"Take up space!"
This caption accompanied a recreated photo by Matthews of Perry kissing the ground after her spaceflight, highlighting the moment.
Representatives for Perry and Bloom confirmed their split on July 3, following news in late June that their engagement had ended. They were together for nine years and share a five-year-old daughter named Daisy.
"Katy has every intention of maintaining a positive and respectful relationship with Orlando. He's the father of their daughter, and that will always come first for her."
