Katy Perry is reportedly grappling with the hurt of seeing an ex-partner move on almost immediately after a split.
The singer and her ex-fiancé, Orlando Bloom, called it quits on their decade-long relationship, but the British heartthrob seems to be embracing it in style, as he's been seen partying and attending VIP functions.
Sources have now accused Orlando Bloom of behaving like "an acting-up adolescent," noting that it has left Katy Perry "disappointed and sad."
Why Katy Perry Is 'Disappointed' By Orlando Bloom's Post-Split Behavior

Perry is "hurting" from seeing her ex, Orlando Bloom's seemingly carefree post-breakup behavior.
The pop star and the "Lord Of The Rings" actor recently ended their relationship six years after their engagement.
However, Bloom seems to be relishing his newfound singlehood, as he attended Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's wedding in Venice and also turned up for a star-studded bash onboard a yacht.
Bloom was seen chatting with Leonardo DiCaprio's girlfriend, Vittoria Ceretti, as they boarded a water taxi ride on their way to the airport following Bezos's wedding.
A few days after that, he headed on board the Ritz-Carlton's stunning 794-ft Luminara for its inaugural cruise from Rome.
A source close to Perry told the Daily Mail that the singer has been left hurt and disappointed by Bloom's behavior, even though she understands he's "free to do whatever" he wants.
"It's disappointing," the insider said. "It's hurtful and annoying. If he's going to behave like an acting-up adolescent, that's on him. She's going to continue to work and take care of Daisy."
"Katy knows that he's free to do whatever the hell he wants to do, she hoped he'd do it a little more discreetly and thoughtfully," the source continued. "So she's disappointed and sad."
The Former Couple Has Been Separated For Months

Following months of heavy speculation surrounding their relationship, the now-exes confirmed they had gone their separate ways.
According to US Weekly, representatives for Perry and Bloom released a statement saying they've "been shifting their relationship over the past many months to focus on co-parenting."
"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 statement read.
Orlando Bloom Shares Cryptic Post Amid Their Split

The "Pirates of the Caribbean" actor has been sharing cryptic posts referencing love, power, loneliness, and addiction on social media, with one reading: "Loneliness does not come from having no people about one, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself."
He followed it up by reposting another quote that alluded to the darker side of his life.
The quote read: "Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness."
However, Perry's source slammed Bloom's philosophical posts, claiming that the singer believes he's just managing his public persona.
"He's smart enough to know that the partying is not a good look," the source said. "But all the quotes in the world from famous philosophers and religious leaders can't change the fact that he's out there doing what he's doing."
The Actor's Split From Katy Perry Has Been Praised As A 'Savvy' Career Move

PR expert Chad Teixeira recently told the Daily Mail that Bloom and Perry's split has been "incredibly well-timed" for the actor's career, whether it happened "intentionally or coincidentally."
Teixeira claims the breakup allows Bloom to launch a "soft rebrand" after being in Perry's "shadow" for years.
"In the wake of a high-profile relationship that often placed him in the shadow of Perry's headline-making career, Orlando now has the opportunity to reestablish his own narrative, independent of her increasingly complex public perception," Teixeira added.
Despite the emotional toll, Perry, who is currently busy with her "Lifetimes" world tour, wishes him well and is doing all she can to take their split in stride.
"She wishes him all the best," the source said. "She just wants to move forward."
Orlando Bloom And Katy Perry's Careers Caused A Strain In Their Relationship

A source recently told Radar Online that the former couple had split because they were both dealing with the frustration that came with their careers hitting a standstill.
An insider told the news outlet that Perry and Bloom had "endless rows" as they were angry their "stars are fading."
"They couldn't take the strain of watching each other fail, and their frustrations with themselves boiled over into rows with each other," one source explained.
According to reports, Bloom is hustling hard for his next movie hit and is looking to reprise his past role as elvish warrior Legolas in "The Hunt for Gollum," which is the next planned installment in the "Lord of the Rings" fantasy franchise.
Perry is also said to be on the lookout for a killer tune that'll help win back fans after her "143" album was critically panned and failed to do well commercially.
