Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom are in no rush to say “I do.” It’s been a little over a year since the couple announced their engagement, but they are still going to be pushing back their wedding date.
A source tells ET that Perry and Bloom are postponing the nuptials they had planned in Japan this year due to the worldwide coronavirus outbreak, and will not be tying the knot until 2021. As of this writing, Japan has a reported 1,023 cases of the illness.
Early last month, Perry sent a message to those in China who were also battling the outbreak.
“I just wanted to send a message to you to let you know that we are all with you during this time, and keep fighting, and stay healthy, and positive as best as you can,” the 35-year-old singer said in the video posted by Dr. Tedros Ghebreyesus, the director-general of the World Health Organization. “We’re thinking of you. We are sending our prayers. We’re gonna get through this.”
