Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom’s brightest spark is their three-year-old daughter, Daisy Dove Bloom. The couple introduced their first child together—Bloom’s second, following his son Flynn, whom he shares with ex-wife Miranda Kerr—on August 26, 2020. Reflecting on new motherhood, Perry shared with September 2021, “Those first six weeks are like, ‘What?’ It’s the biggest life change ever. You’re responsible for someone’s well-being who can’t even hold their head up. It’s a real shift, and you’re no longer the top priority.” The “Roar” singer views this life adjustment as “the best” transformation, appreciating the reevaluation of what’s truly important. “Everything that’s meant to fade away does, and a balance comes in,” she remarked. Bloom, previously known for his love of fast cars and motorcycles, now finds his greatest excitement in fatherhood. In November 2021, he told As I’m growing older, I’m learning that being present in the moment is also achieved simply through breathing and being in front of my beautiful baby daughter. I’ve got way more at stake today than I’ve ever had before, in terms of my family.” Here’s all you need to know about Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom’s daughter, Daisy Dove.

Perry announced her pregnancy in a music video

Perry delighted her fans by announcing her pregnancy in the music video for her song “Never Worn White,” released on March 5, 2020. In the video, she sings, “Cause I’ve never worn white / But I wanna get it right / Yeah, I really wanna try with you,” as she gently holds her baby bump. Continuing, she croons, “No, I’ve never worn white / But I’m standin’ here tonight / Cause I really wanna say ‘I do.'” Shortly after the video’s release, Perry took to Instagram Live to discuss the announcement with her fans. “I’m late, but you already knew that,” she quipped, adding that this was “probably the longest secret” she had ever had to keep. She also shared that she would be releasing an album around the same time she was expecting to give birth, anticipating a very busy year ahead.

Perry and Bloom were both "prepared" to welcome a baby

Despite delaying their wedding due to Daisy’s arrival, Perry emphasized that the pregnancy was “no mistake. I think the reason I’m having a child at 35 is that I was terrified of the idea before,” she shared on The Zane Lowe Show in August 2020. “I kept thinking, ‘I need to sort myself out first, to fully embrace this joy.’ So after a lot of personal work and growth, I felt ready. I was ready.” Perry noted that she and Bloom were both deliberate about their decision. “We were both conscious about it. We were both ready. It was no mistake. It was no accident,” she added.

Perry hinted at Daisy's name before her birth

Perry and Bloom partnered with UNICEF to share the news of their daughter’s birth, utilizing their platforms as UNICEF Goodwill ambassadors since 2013 and 2009, respectively. The announcement came via a heartwarming Instagram post from the organization, featuring a photo of the family’s hands intertwined. “We are floating with love and wonder from the safe and healthy arrival of our daughter,” the couple expressed in the caption. “We know we’re the lucky ones, and not everyone can have a birthing experience as peaceful as ours was.” Perry later recounted to Jimmy Kimmel how Bloom provided invaluable support during labor, saying, “We had a little boombox. He was there, so wonderful, holding my hand and looking into my eyes.”

Just two months prior to Daisy’s arrival, Perry mentioned they were still undecided on a name. “We have yet to decide specifically on her name because we’ve got options, and she’ll tell us,” Perry noted during a June 2020 interview with Mix 104.1’s Karson & Kennedy. “I’ll look at her and go, ‘Oh yeah, you are her, you are that.'” However, there were several earlier hints about the name Daisy. Perry released a song titled “Daisies” in April 2020, wore a daisy-patterned muumuu on a May episode of American Idol, and donned daisy earrings in the music video for her single “Smile.” After revealing their daughter’s name, Perry explained the choice during a February 2021 interview with Kimmel: “Daisy, to me, means purity, and Dove means peace and Bloom feels like it means joy,” she shared. “So it’s very, ‘Pure, peace, and joy.
