Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom first met while fighting over a burger in 2016, and now, the couple are happily engaged and parents to a daughter.

After taking a break in 2017, they rekindled their romance less than a year later and their relationship got serious. Bloom proposed to Perry on Valentine’s Day in 2019 and while the COVID-19 pandemic did halt their original wedding plans, the couple moved in together and welcomed their first child, Daisy Dove Bloom, in August 2020.

“Every day your options change, and you don’t know what’s what. Especially being pregnant in a pandemic, it’s an emotional rollercoaster,” Perry told PEOPLE. However, she credits her fiancé with being able to overcome life’s curveballs. Her future goals are to have “family and love and laughing and coziness.”

From their In-N-Out meeting to welcoming their first child together, here is a complete timeline of Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom’s relationship.
