‘There’s a bond that’s even stronger. We have some horrible days where I want to cry, but I believe when we look back at this, for myself, it will be this beautiful bond that we created.’

Katy announced her pregnancy earlier in the year while debuting her music video for, Never Worn White.

The singer shared during a Facebook Live chat earlier in the week that she was coming to terms with the fact she wasn’t going to be able to have a baby shower for her child, amid the global pandemic.

‘I know not everyone does a babymoon or a baby shower. But I’m not sure I’m gonna be able to do any of that.

‘I’m just taking it one day at a time. But I’ll be grateful. I mean, I’m grateful now, but there’s a lot going on.’

Aside from missing out on pregnancy traditions, the Fireworks singer has also had to put her wedding plans on hold.

Katy and Orlando got engaged on Valentine’s Day 2018 and were reportedly planning to exchange their vows in Japan in front of 150 guests, according to People.

The 13 time Grammy nominee was previously married to Russell Brand between 2010 and 2012.

The Pirates Of The Caribbean star has also been married once before to Miranda Kerr. The amicable couple co-parent their son, Flynn, nine.
