Katy Perry was notably absent from Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’s romantic Wedding in Venice last Friday, June 27. The pop star was busy lighting up the stage in Adelaide, Australia, as part of her Lifetimes Tour. Still, that didn’t stop Lauren from giving her a little shoutout, commenting “We miss you Katy” on Katy Perry’s Australian photo dump.
The timing couldn’t have been messier. Just a day before, on June 26, the singer and Orlando Bloom were rumored to have split after nearly a decade together, including a six-year engagement that began on Valentine’s Day 2019. Eventually, different media outlets like PEOPLE and TMZ confirmed that both stars had called it quits on June 27. And while Orlando Bloom was seen attending the wedding in Italy, Katy Perry kept her distance, but not because of the breakup. A source said that the singer was “never going to the wedding” in the first place. Despite missing the important occasion, the singer did join Lauren for her bachelorette party in Paris, alongside Kim Kardashian, Kris Jenner, and Eva Longoria.
Regardless of the speculation, the artist’s priorities seem clear. She’s focused on her tour and spending time with her daughter, Daisy. And while she wasn’t physically present for Lauren Sánchez and Jeff Bezos’ big day, the love between friends was still felt across comment sections.
