Orlando Bloom Breaks Silence on Katy Perry Split

Orlando Bloom only has positive things to say about his former longtime partner Katy Perry … telling “Today” it’s nothing but love between the two of them.

The actor appeared on the NBC show Friday morning to promote his new movie “The Cut”  … and, he was asked by host Craig Melvin about his big life change since he was last on the program.

Of course, Melvin’s referring to Orlando’s split from Katy — which we told you about back in June, and they announced in a joint statement via their reps the following month.

Bloom says he’s “grateful” … before calling the daughter he and Katy share — 5-year-old Daisy — “beautiful.”

He then adds, “And we’re great. We’re going to be great. Nothing but love.”

It’s the first time OB’s spoken directly about the split … though, like we mentioned, he and Katy had their reps put out a statement in July in which they confirmed the split before adding the priority at this point is effectively co-parenting Daisy.

Perry testified in court late last month, BTW … and, she referred to herself and Bloom as “family for life” — so, it’s on an official transcript for posterity, too.
