- The photos originated in Matthews’ Oct. 31 Instagram Stories and show Bloom, in skeleton makeup, with his arm around her Blue Origin–style costume.
- A separate image captures Matthews kneeling to recreate Perry’s post-flight ground kiss with the caption “Take up space!”.
- The images were later reposted widely on Reddit and X, where many commenters labeled the display disrespectful toward Perry.
- Bloom and Katy Perry announced their separation in July after roughly nine years together, and they share a five-year-old daughter.
- Neither Bloom nor Matthews has publicly responded, and outlets report it remains unclear whether they were acquaintances or simply met at the party.
