Outrage sparked as Orlando Bloom spotted with actress dressed up as ex Katy Perry
Fans had a few things to share after Orlando Bloom appeared to pose with someone dressed as his ex-fiancée, Katy Perry, for Halloween.
In June, the Lord of the Rings star and the 'Teenage Dream' singer announced they'd gone their separate ways after nearly a decade together.
Since their split, it has been rumoured that Perry has moved on to a new romance with former Canadian prime minister, Justin Trudeau, with the two being spotted getting a bit cosy on a yacht last month.
While the 41-year-old has officially confirmed anything, she did seemingly refer to her love life during a Lifetimes Tour concert in London, while Bloom has previously addressed their relationship following their split, telling Today that he and Perry were 'great', adding: "It's nothing but love."

However, a picture of the Pirates of the Caribbean star posing with actress Rachel Lynn Matthews has caught social media users' attention, primarily because she appears to be dressed as Perry for Halloween.
Orlando is sporting skeleton face paint as he stands with his arm around Rachel, who is wearing a blue bodysuit and a black wig.
A few noted that the Happy Death Day star's costume bears an incredibly similar resemblance to the one Perry wore when she took part in the Blue Origin flight back in April.
Elsewhere, Rachel also recreated Katy's viral picture of her kissing the ground when she returned to Earth, with the caption 'TAKE UP SPACE'.
In the photo of her kneeling to kiss the ground, there is also a US flag patch on the arm of the bodysuit.
People online have shared their opinions on the picture, with some expressing disappointment. As one fan dubbed the snap 'very, very weird', another agreed, saying it was 'so weird' and 'disrespectful'.
Another slammed it as "That’s so tacky and cruel… they have a child together," referring to Perry and Bloom's 5-year-old daughter, Daisy Dove Bloom.
"This cannot be real!" insisted one fan, as one X user wrote "There's petty, then there's this."
However, others came to the actor's defence, as one person wrote: "I don’t think it’s weird - they’re just having fun."
Another added: “If she’s just some rando at the party who got a picture with him while she’s dressed like that, it’s hilarious lol."
Neither Bloom nor Perry has yet responded to the photos.
It comes after fans speculate about the reason behind Katy and Orlando's split, thanks to lyrics in her new single, 'Bandaids'.
In the new song, lyrics include: “Hand to God I promise I tried / There’s no stone left unturned / It’s not what you did, it’s what you didn’t / You were there but you weren’t.”
She also sings: “Got so used to you letting me down / No use tryna send flowers now. Telling myself you'll change, you don't / Band-Aids over a broken heart.”
Katy also featured the lyrics: “We were perfect 'til we weren't / Now we've got too many splinters.”
