Orlando Bloom appears to be turning the page after his high-profile breakup with Katy Perry, as the actor shared a series of reflective and cryptic Instagram stories hinting at a fresh chapter in his life.
The 48-year-old Lord of the Rings star posted a quote from Buddha, reading: “Each day is a new beginning. What we do today is what matters most.”
He followed it up with another quote from Japanese writer Daisaku Ikeda.
“The important thing is to take that first step. Bravely overcoming one small fear gives you the courage to take on the next.”
The timing of the posts comes days after news broke of Bloom’s split from longtime partner Katy Perry, 40, following nine years together and the birth of their daughter, Daisy Dove.
While Bloom didn’t explicitly address the breakup, fans were quick to interpret the quotes as a sign that the actor is embracing a new phase in his life—and possibly healing from the end of the relationship.
