What is Katy Perry's net worth? Pop star and estranged partner Orlando Bloom reportedly began renting out their $15m mansion in February

Katy Perry often makes headlines for her much-happening career. However, reports on her personal life have been buzzing on the internet for a couple of weeks now.

Amid rumors of Katy and her long-time beau Orlando Bloom's split, another news item about their real estate property appears to confirm their alleged breakup.

In a conversation with People, an insider disclosed that the celebrity duo has been renting their luxe mansion in Montecito, California, since February this year.

While Perry is currently busy with her The Lifetimes Tour shows in Australia, her fans are curious to know about her fortune. With decades of relentless hard work and major hits, she has amassed a net worth of $400 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.

Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom's Montecito house has been rented out

In July 2020, The One That Got Away hitmaker bought the palatial house from Carl Westcott, as per People. She paid $15 million to own the 1930s property built on 2.5 acres. The 9,285-square-foot establishment has 8 bedrooms, 11 bathrooms, an infinity pool, jacuzzi, fireplace, kitchen, and a 3-bedroom guesthouse.

Though Katy Perry purchased the mansion to build it into her home with Orlando, the plan shifted when Westcott considered revoking the deal. It also led to a legal dispute.

The Wall Street Journal obtained property records stating that the Firework singer formally became the mansion's official owner last year in May, People cited.

In 2023, Katy Perry's attorney, Eric Rowen, released a statement to People, stating:

"Today’s proposed decision is clear — the judge found that Mr. Westcott could not prove anything other than he was of perfectly sound mind when he engaged in complex negotiations over several weeks with multiple parties to transact a lucrative sale of the property that netted him a substantial profit."

Eric further explained:

"The evidence shows that Mr. Westcott breached the contract for no other reason than he had changed his mind. We look forward to wrapping this matter up at the scheduled damage trial phase set for February 13 and 14, if not before."
