SplashThe claims come after Roar hitmaker Katy is said to have told pals it was over back in January[/caption]
ReutersOrlando, 48, was claimed to be making his ‘single man debut’ at Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’s wedding this week[/caption]
Orlando was seen embracing Keeping Up With The Kardashians alum Kim Kardashian, 44, at thethree-day celebration.
It came after he was caught “ogling” the Skims founder and Hulu Tv star in an image taken on a night out with popstar Katy, 40.
For her part, the Roar hitmaker is said to have already told pals their relationship was as good as done.
And now a source has suggested the Hollywood A-Listers, who share daughter Daisy, are on the same page and said: “They had broken up before and in the following years things could get tense and to a point where it was often make or break, and they would choose to make up.
“But shortly after her Video Vanguard Award and performance in September, they started to disconnect more as she was getting ready to release music, go on tour and take the space flight.
“After the holidays and into the New Year, it was just one little thing after another.”
They added to MailOnline: “He isn’t going to try to get her back.
“It’s over and he has accepted it.”
The Sun has gone to reps for Katy and Orlando for comment.
LETTING SLIP
It has previously been claimed that Katy – who is on tour in Australia – had told her mates their engagement was over at the start of the year, before removing her engagement ring.
A source close to the couple said at the time: “Katy confided in friends at the start of the year that their relationship was as good as done.
“They decided to hold off on announcing anything in case things improved between them, because they are desperate to stay together for the sake of their daughter.
“But they have spent barely any time together this year, with Katy on tour and Orlando working on his upcoming film Bucking Fastard in Dublin.
“She knew that taking off her engagement ring would send a clear message.
“It’s been a hard year so far. They wanted to wait until the tour is over before they made their split official, although Katy has grown tired of the situation.”
The couple started dating in 2016 and got engaged three years later. However, The Sun understands they had difficult conversations about their future over Christmas and in January but struggled to make a firm decision.
Reps for the couple refused to comment when approached about their separation in February and again this week.
ALL CHANGE
Last week, The Sun reported how Orlando and Katy held crisis talks to try to save their relationship after leading increasingly separate lives.
American news website TMZ then said Brit-born Orlando would be “the life of the party” and that he would be hitting “the dancefloor hard” when he arrives in Italy for the nuptials.
An insider said: “No one has decided it’s definitely the end of the road for Katy and Orlando.
“They both love each other, but they have been living different lives for at least a year and in different mindsets.”
It’s understood Orlando and Katy are planning on reuniting on July 4 when there is a break in her touring schedule.
The insider added: “They have barely been together for a decent amount of time, without distractions, for many, many months.”
Tensions within their relationship also reached boiling point after Katy’s flight to space on board Jeff’s Blue Origin.
Katy, along with Lauren and Gayle King, were hit with a public backlash and those close to Orlando said he had warned Katy about taking part.
They said: “From day one, Orlando didn’t think going on the Blue Origin mission was a good idea, and knew she would face a backlash.”

AN INFLUENCER mum who’s regularly trolled over her wardrobe choices has insisted she won’t stop wearing her beloved belly tops.
Anna Saccone Joly regularly shares videos and pictures of herself and her family – husband Jonathan and their four kids – on her social media pages.
Anna Saccone Joly has been slammed online for wearing crop tops at “nearly 40”TikTok/@annasacconeHer wardrobe has changed dramatically since her mummy makeover in August 2023TikTok/@annasaccone
But she’s found herself targeted over her wardrobe, which has included a tonne of crop tops since she had a “mummy makeover”, including a tummy tuck, in August 2023.
Lots of people in the comments on Anna’s videos have insisted she’s too old, at 37, to be wearing the stomach-baring ensembles.
“The belly tops are embarrassing at nearly 40,” one person insisted.
“Give your children’s clothes back to them!” another added.
“If you don’t like others comments & opinions…” a third commented.
“Stop flaunting it over social media then – go be a mother to your kids instead of trying to be one of them!!!”
However, YouTuber and influencer Anna hit back at the comments as she lip-synced along to Billy Joel’s My Life, pretending to sing: “I don’t care what you say anymore this is my life.
“Go ahead with your own life, leave me alone!”
“I guess I didn’t realise we were meant to dress like old maids in our late 30s,” she added in the caption.
And others agreed with her in the comments section of the TikTok, encouraging Anna to wear exactly what she wants.
“You can never be too old to wear a belly top,” one wrote in the comments.
“Agree!” Anna replied.
“So pretty and even with surgery you should be able to show off you new look,” another added.
“I would wear one in winter if I was you!” a third said.
“We spend our entire young lives being judged for what we wear and look like,” someone else commented.
“Getting to a point where you are comfortable and confident in a style that works for you is the goal.
How to blast belly fat WITHOUT going to the gym or dieting
Chew your food
This mindfulness trick is used to focus your brain on the food you are eating – how it tastes and feels – rather than scoffing it in a hurry. If the brain does not register that you have eaten, you’ll soon crave more food.
Avocado a day
Eating avocado every day can fight visceral fat in women, which collects around the organs in the stomach and can lead to diabetes, heart attack, and some cancers, according to a University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign study of 105 people.
Avoid fizzy drinks
Losing belly “fat” may just be a case of preventing bloating, which can be onset by fizzy soft drinks. Instead, keep hydrated with water.
People are more likely to crave junk food when they are sleep deprived because, not only are they in need of an energy boost, but their appetite hormones are all over the place.
Reduce stress
Stress causes an imbalance of hormones, particularly cortisol. This hormone has been linked with obesity and excess belly fat.
Find ways to reduce your stress to avoid the so-called ‘stress belly’.
“I recently lost some weight and now wear tops similar to this.
“I’m 37 and have spent literally DECADES hating my body – I freaking earned the right to wear whatever the hell I want.”
“You look great, it’s flattering on you,” another said.
“Clothing doesn’t have specific ages. Not sure why anyone cares lol!”
“I’m 36 and wear whatever I like!” someone else wrote.
“I WILL NOT LIVE MY LIFE IN THE OPINION OF OTHERS!! All the haters are just JEALOUS!!! PERIOD.”
“If I looked as good as you, I’d be rocking that outfit everyday,” another commented.

FANCY WATCHING a game of football on the side of an active volcano?
Or maybe you would prefer the 90-minute experience of sitting high up a mountain pass, perched on a slender goat trail?

Leon GladwellMountains rise about the Reine Stadion in Norway[/caption]
The thing about new grounds these days is that while they cost billions of pounds to build, more often than not they all look the same and lack uniqueness or character.
There is something thrilling and wonderful about watching a match played in bizarre or strange surroundings – locations far removed from the pristine, copycat comfort of the Premier League.
Author Leon Gladwell went on a two-year voyage to discover and photograph 100 of Europe’s wackiest and strangest venues, travelling more than 130,000 miles across 71 trips.
He has collected them all into a glossy new book European Football’s Greatest Grounds.
And SunSport has put together 10 of the most remarkable, bucket-list places on the continent where you can go and watch the Beautiful Game.
Campo di Calcio Zuel (Cortina d’Ampezzo, Italy)
The Trampolino Olimpico, a ski jumping hill in the Dolomites, was opened in 1923 and was used as a venue during the 1956 Winter Olympics.
The faded Olympic Rings are still visible from the bottom of the 49-metre high launch ramp.
Yet there is no chance of Eddie ‘The Eagle’ flying over the goalposts because the jump has been closed for 35 years.

During the summer months, when the snow has melted, the area below is used for junior football, thanks to the installation of a football pitch by Serie A giants AC Milan.
It also has a key place in movie history – it was the scene of a famous ski jump by James Bond in the 1981 film For Your Eyes Only.

Campo Gerini (Rome, Italy)
Italian stadiums might look old and rundown but that is part of their charm and romanticism.
Anyone who grew up watching the Italia ‘90 World Cup on TV will instantly recognise some of the famous yet tired arenas that hosted the world’s best footballers 35 years ago.
One of the nation’s quirkiest grounds can be located in its capital Rome, eleven kilometres south-east of the Colosseum, in the second-largest urban park in Europe.
Campo Gerini hosts various football factions seven days a week, from junior sides right through to senior matches in Italy’s ninth tier.
Some of the pitches are located next to a decaying aqueduct built in 50 BC during the reign of Emperor Claudius.
Yet the future of the area is in doubt after 40 hectares of land (the equivalent of 60 football pitches) were sold to private individuals, including a supermarket entrepreneur, in 2023.

Eriskay (Scotland)
Eriskay is a remote island in the Outer Hebrides and is barely four kilometres in length.
With a population of just 143, it is one of the smallest regions to support a football club.
And Barnet’s old uphill slope is nothing compared to this imperfect playing surface.
The bumpy, bobbly Cnoc Na Monadh pitch, with his wobbly touchlines, has a “wee hill in the corner” and as such, one of the corner flags is as high as the crossbar.
Occasionally, stray sheep might make a beeline for the centre circle and after every winter, groundstaff have to painstakingly remove all the local wildlife’s POO.
Fifa’s World Football Museum gave Eriskay worldwide recognition in 2015, branding it as one of the eight most remarkable places in the world to play football.
Post-match drinks can be enjoyed in the island’s only pub, Am Politician, which is named after the celebrated shipwreck.

Feldstrasse (Hamburg, Germany)
Hamburg’s historic SC Hansa 11 club has a unique claim to fame – it is next door to a gargantuan Nazi-built Second World War BUNKER.
Two artificial pitches in this inner-city sports ground are flanked by the astonishing Flakturm IV.
This air raid shelter was built in the 1940s under orders from Adolf Hitler to protect the country from Allied air attack.
An anti-aircraft gun has long gone from the imposing concrete blockhouse tower and it has since been converted into a public rooftop terrace, which doubles up as a live music venue.
On the other side of the ground is the Millerntor-Stadion, which is home to Bundesliga side, FC St. Pauli, a must-see destination for all football hipsters.

Grigoris Lambrakis Municipal Stadium (Athens, Greece)
The best stadiums are not really the ones located off a motorway, far out of town, next to a shopping centre, with ample parking spots.
The most interesting ones exist within a deprived community, perhaps next to a housing estate, in a hustling, bustling city, which has been dwarfed by the skyward creep of urbanisation.
Athens Kallithea FC’s ground, known locally as El Paso, is one such neighbourhood spot and some lucky fans can watch action in Greece’s top division from their apartment block windows.
Otherwise punters can perch on limestone cliffs that roll around half the pitch, standing behind coils of barbed wire and iron railings.
In the mid-1960s, Sergio Leone’s spaghetti-western classic For a Few Dollars More, starring Clint Eastwood, was released in Greece under the name Duel in El Paso.
Kallithea used that nickname and to this day, they run on to the pitch to the dustbowl strains of Ennio Morricone’s haunting score.

Gryluvollur (Hveragerdi, Iceland)
There is no danger of flooding or soggy pitches for Iceland lower-league side FC Hamar.
That is because underneath their hillside ground are boiling underground rivers hot enough to cook an EGG.
Situated on the slopes of the Grændalur volcano, fumarole vents near the touchline and in neighbouring backyards belch plumes of sulphuric steam into the air.
A Gryla geyser lies dormant just 70 metres from the pitch and until the late 1990s, it would often shoot boiling jets of water up to 12 metres high during matches.
At least for those who live in this alien landscape in the little village of Hverageroi (which translates as ‘hot spring garden’), players can use the gases to steam-dry their match-day kits.

Janosovka (Cierny Balog, Slovakia)
Ideally, a football ground needs to have good, reliable transport links – but there is one in Slovakia which takes that concept to its extreme.
One slumberous village in Cierny Balog actually has aSTEAM TRAIN that passes directly by, just metres from the pitch and only a few feet from one of the grandstands.
A busy logging railway used to haul timber up and down the valley for more than 80 miles of narrow gauge track for almost 75 years.
These days, it is a heritage railway for tourists but the line goes straight through the ground of this semi-professional club.
There are no confirmed accidents involving trains at the ground but the chairman often jokes that a few of his wingers should hop on and off to get them up the line a bit quicker.
Yet anyone planning a Rory Delap-style long run-up for their throw-ins might think again…

Kvarlis Tsentraluri Stadioni (Kvareli, Georgia)
Kvareli Duruji FC in Georgia’s fifth division play football inside the walls of a medieval CASTLE.
The rural 17th-century fortress, which has an iron-studded entrance gate, has wooden grandstands and can house up to 2,500 fans.
Legend has it that a player once went down headfirst into a sinkhole that emerged during one match in 1978.
That has since been filled in and bricked over but underneath the pitch are tunnels and rooms that were built to store earthenware vessels used for the fermentation and ageing of local wine.
When Gladwell went there, a special friendly match was arranged in his honour and his son Noah was allowed to play – even though he ended up missing a key penalty.

Valloyran (Sandavagur, Faroe Islands)
Those who live in the Faroe Islands can get to church on time on a Sunday – and then, after their prayers, have a little kickabout next door.
One of the country’s 26 grounds – in the seaside fishing village of Sandavagur – is overlooked by a beautiful red-roofed wooden church and cemetery.
There are so few seats that it is essentially standing room only around this tiny football field – but you could choose to watch from your car given how close you can park behind one of the goals.
The artificial pitch ensures few games are called off but spectators have to wrap up warm in the face of the fierce Faroese weather.
Leon GladwellThe picturesque ground is overlooked by a red-roofed church[/caption]
Yenisehir Stadyumu (Gumushane, Turkey)
The city of Gumushane, which is 3,970ft above sea level, lies on the ancient Silk Road, the historic trade route from China to Turkey.
To reach their football club, you have to endure a hair-raising zig-zagging journey along the Zigana Pass in the Pontic Mountains.
Fans can either watch from the grandstands or, to avoid buying a ticket, find a spot up on the uphill goat paths.
Pity the poor groundsman who has to work with a pitch that sees little sunlight due to the towering walls of red rock that encircle the ground.
It is one of the most remote places to visit in Europe, several hours outside of Black Sea resort Trabzon, but also one of the most special.
