Orlando Bloom addressed what it was like to attend Amazon chairman Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’s star-studded wedding over the summer.
Speaking to London’s The Times in an interview published on Friday, September 5, Bloom, 48, admitted it was “wild” to be part of the couple’s three days of wedding festivities in Venice, Italy, in June. While attending the highly-publicized nuptials, Bloom partied with Leonardo DiCaprio, Kris Jenner and the Kardashians, Tom Brady, Sydney Sweeney and Eva Longoria, among many other high-profile public figures.
The actor mentioned that he had a preexisting relationship with Bezos, as Amazon produced his streaming projects, Carnival Row and Deep Cover.
“When you’re in a position like that, people want to have multiple opinions and actually I just take people on face value,” he said of Bezos.. “The person that I know [Bezos] is remarkably gracious and cool and wise and fun to be around.”

The two men also share a link through Bloom’s former fiancée Katy Perry, who took part in the Bezos-funded Blue Origin space flight with Sánchez in April.
Asked whether he’d ever take part in one of Bezos’ Blue Origin flights, Bloom laughed and told the U.K. outlet, “I don’t know about that.”
Us Weekly exclusively reported that Bloom was one of many notable guests to attend Bezos and Sánchez’s pajama-themed, post-wedding bash on a small island outside of Venice. The night included music from DJ Cassidy performing with a full orchestra and a headlining concert from Usher.
In between the music sets, guests relaxed on velvet couches and lounge chairs to match the P.J. theme and dined on a lavish Italian buffet with various pastas and cannolis. A source confirmed to Us that Bloom “didn’t leave the dance floor for hours” during the celebration.
“[Bloom] was in full party mood,” an insider recalled.

Perry was not in attendance for the wedding weekend, though Sánchez reached out to Perry via Instagram prior to the event to say she’d “miss” her at the festivities.
The Venice wedding occurred two days after Us Weekly reported on June 25 that Perry and Bloom ended their engagement after nearly 10 years together. (Bloom proposed to Perry in 2019 and their daughter, Daisy, arrived in August 2020.)
“Orlando and Katy have been shifting their relationship over the past many months to focus on coparenting,” the former couple told Us in a joint statement on July 3. “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 Pirates of the Caribbean actor broke his silence about splitting from Perry during an interview on NBC’s Today on Friday, September 5, where he assured anchor Craig Melvin that he and Perry were in a good place.
Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom’s relationship included a nude paddleboarding session, a meeting with the pope and just about everything in between before they split in June 2025. The singer and the actor dated from January 2016 to March 2017 before briefly calling it quits. They were officially back together by February 2018, and one […]
“I’m great, man. I’m so grateful. We have the most beautiful daughter,” he told Melvin. “You know, when you leave everything on the field, like I did in [new movie The Cut], I feel grateful for all of it. … We’re great [and] we’re going to be great. It’s nothing but love.”
Bloom also used his appearance on Today to shut down speculation that he used the weight loss drug Ozempic to shed 52 pounds before playing a boxer in The Cut. He stars in the Sean Ellis-direct sports drama — which is now playing in theaters — as a boxer undergoing grueling training in order to challenge for a championship.
