On Monday, June 15, TMZ published photos of the pop star, 41, and the former Canadian prime minister, 54, smooching and cuddling on a blanket while enjoying a picnic in Santa Barbara just two days prior.
“It’s great that she’s in love but it’s hard to understand why she needs to put it out there so much,” an insider tells the National Enquirer. “Nobody is saying she should hide her happiness, but there’s a growing feeling that she’s laying it on a little thick.”

It’s not just the constant PDA either.
Perry seemingly took a dig at exes John Mayer, Diplo and Orlando Bloom during a concert in Spain. In a video posted to X on June 18, the pop star pretends to decline their calls on a giant phone while performing “Never Really Over” — but then accepts one from JPJT a.k.a Justin Pierre Justin Trudeau.
“Now she’s gone and done this little stunt at her concert that’s clearly aimed at getting Orlando’s attention,” says the insider. “It’s all a little pathetic, especially considering she’s supposedly moved on and is so happy.”

As the Enquirer previously reported, a source says Bloom, 49, has been very careful to be respectful to Perry, with whom he shares 5-year-old daughter Daisy.
“When you compare her conduct to Orlando’s, it’s hard not to notice the glaring difference,” says the insider. “He’s handled this whole situation with a huge amount of dignity and maturity and you can’t say the same about Katy.”
Adds the insider: “She’s making out with Justin in public every chance she gets to the point where people around them are uncomfortable and whispering that they should get a room.”
