TV singing competition American Idol, for which Katy used to be a judge, also congratulated the parents to be, writing, ‘Congrats @katyperry & @orlandobloom 👶 🍼 ❤️’.
This will be the first child for Katy, who got confirmed her engagement to Pirates of the Caribbean star Orlando last February.
Orlando is already dad to nine-year-old son Flynn, who he shares with ex-wife Victoria’s Secret model Miranda Kerr.
Just months ago Miranda welcomed her third child, her second with new husband Evan Spiegel who she married back in 2017.
So it seems like lucky Flynn is going to be big brother to three little siblings – how exciting!
Big congrats to Katy and Orlando on their wonderful news!
