Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom are hoping to beat the coronavirus crisis and tie the knot this year, though their plans may be disrupted by the pandemic.
The 35-year-old singer announced her pregnancy earlier this month and she was hoping to wed 43-year-old Pirates of the Caribbean star Orlando Bloom in Japan but the Covid-19 lockdown has meant that they have had to postpone their dream day.
The couple, who got engaged on Valentine’s Day 2019, is now looking at a private function which could be bereft of guests as coronavirus brings travelling to a standstill.
Speaking to Hollywood Life, an insider said about their big day: “Katy doesn’t want to postpone her wedding, but it’s something that is looking more and more likely by the day.”

Katy is allegedly looking to enable ‘Plan B’ as their hopes of heading to the Far East for their celebrations is looking increasingly unlikely this year.
The insider continued: “It’s unfortunate, but she’s taking it in stride. She’s told friends that they might just do something private at home and then have the big celebration in Japan when this all calms down.”
Speaking to The Times at the weekend, Orlando has admitted that he will be wedded to Katy “very, very soon.”
He said that he would not be putting pressure on guests to travel while coronavirus still has a grip of world.
He continued: “But I’m not joking when I say that coronavirus might have a play in whether we put things on ice, because we’re going to be traveling and we don’t want anyone to feel uncomfortable.”
The pair have already had their work plans disrupted in the past few days.
