Katy Perry attempts to keep Orlando Bloom out of legal crossfire

Katy Perry, who is currently headlining her The Lifetimes Tour, found herself in a tight spot after splitting from long-time fiancé Orlando Bloom.

The 40-year-old singer is embroiled in a legal battle over a $15 million mansion that she bought in 2020.

According to Us Weekly, Katy’s team is attempting to stop Orlando’s forceful testimony in the lawsuit filed by Carl Westcott.

It was reported by the outlet that the plaintiff suddenly requested “for five new depositions” from the songstress, the Pirates of the Caribbean actor and others.

Her attorneys requested to the court to “not tolerate Westcott’s neglect and gamesmanship during discovery.”

The residence became a point of dispute after Carl filed a case against the Dark Horse hitmaker’s manager Bernie Gudvi.

The businessman alleged that Bernie, on behalf of Katy, closed the deal of the mansion under the influence of painkillers.

After the medicine’s effect wore off, Carl contacted the singer’s team to end the deal, which was not agreed by the Katy’ crew and resulted in a lawsuit against her.

In the first phase of the trial, it was announced by the court that the deal was enforceable, resulting in Katy gaining the ownership of the mansion after several years.

Are Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom together?

This came after the E.T crooner and fiancé Orlando Bloom, who share a daughter together, parted ways following their six-year-long engagement.
