Every generation has its fair share of heartthrobs. Veritable Adonises among men, the heartthrob always occupies the thoughts of teenage girls and boys everywhere, and dominates headlines, tabloid or otherwise, to boot. I mean, just cast your mind back to
Leonardo DiCaprio, post-Titanic in the nineties. And for Millennials, there was Zac Efron of High School Musical fame. But we can hardly forget all the temperature-raising males of the past. Seriously, who can resist a silver fox à la George Clooney, or everyone's favourite archer from Lord of the Rings, Orlando Bloom?
Yes, while Leonardo DiCaprio is busy with his
latest model girlfriend, and George Clooney embodies all of the couple goals with Amal, Orlando Bloom is still single and purportedly on the hunt for a wife. And you can sign me (and countless other women) up!

Following his split from pop superstar,
Katy Perry, it seems as if Orlando Bloom is on the lookout for a new missus. The 40-year-old actor was involved with the Firework singer following his split with the Victoria's Secret model, Miranda Kerr, in 2013. The pair started dating shortly after the 73rd Golden Globe Awards in January 2016, however, they apparently separated in March of this year.
Now, the Lord of the Rings star has made it clear that he's looking for the real deal. During an interview with Extra, Bloom admired a rose-shaped pin that reporter A.J Calloway wore on his suit. Calloway proceeded to tell the actor that the pin was a gift from his partner, Dionne. This triggered Bloom to confess how much he desired a wife of his own.
"See? I need a wife," Bloom replied. "Can you get me a wife? I want a wife. That's what I'm looking for, a wife that will get me a pin like that."

These comments come after repeated reports that
Perry and Bloom have reconciled. While they announced their split in March, they have been spotted together on numerous occasions. The pair even spent Labour Day weekend together in Katy's hometown of Santa Barbara, California.
A source close to the couple stated, "Katy and Orlando are back together. They never stopped loving each other. They are both working on making it right this time, They have never cut communication since they broke up. They just took a break because it was the best thing for them at that time, [but they] are seeing each other again."

Prior to dating Katy Perry, Bloom was married to the Australia supermodel, Miranda Kerr, for three years, after beginning their relationship in 2007. The pair share a six-year-old son together, Flynn Christopher, who was born in January 2011.
While we're still not 100 percent sure whether Orlando Bloom has reconciled with Katy Perry, one thing's for sure, Bloom certainly has love and commitment on the brain this festive season.
