Orlando Bloom dragged into Katy Perry’s mansion war against 85-year-old disabled veteran
NY Post
Andrew Thomas, the attorney for an 85-year-old bedridden veteran, fired off a civil subpoena for Orlando Bloom to appear in court next year in Katy Perry’s ongoing real estate battle after she already won the rights to the vet’s $15 million California mansion.
The Post can confirm that Bloom, 47, is being dragged into his fiancée’s mansion legal mess, scheduled for Feb. 25, 2025, over the alleged damages the pop princess, 40, claims 1-800-Flowers founder Carl Westcott owes her.
Last year, Perry was officially ruled the owner of Westcott’s secluded estate nestled in affluent Montecito, home to celebrities like Oprah Winfrey, Ellen DeGeneres, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle and Gwyneth Paltrow.
The “Roar” singer was embroiled in a yearslong legal fight with Westcott after the entrepreneur — who suffers from the neurological disorder Huntington’s disease — inked a deal with Perry’s business manager, Bernie Gudvi, agreeing to sell his home to the superstar during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.
When Westcott tried to back out of the deal days later, blaming his mental health and alleging he agreed to the sale while recovering from surgery, they refused.
In turn, both parties launched their own lawsuits against each other, with Westcott’s mental capacity taking center stage.
