Orlando Bloom shares backlash with his beloved fiancee Katy Perry as fans rip into the power couple for daring to star in a kids’ show!
The Internet bares its fangs on the “Troy” star as he becomes the latest voice actor to join the animated series “Peppa Pig.” The Hollywood hunk’s new gig comes just after his beau was announced as one of the programme’s stars for their upcoming 20th anniversary special.
In case you missed it, the “Dark Horse” singer and her lover became public enemies following their legal drama with an elderly man over property. The past few weeks have seen the lovebirds come under fire, and their new performance has only fueled more anger.
Orlando Bloom & Katy Perry Mercilessly Teased For Their ‘Peppa Pig’ Feature
The “Lord of the Rings” star will be featured on the children’s TV show for the program’s 20th anniversary episode, “The Peppa Pig Wedding Party Special.” Per Entertainment Weekly, Bloom will voice the character of Mr. Raccoon, a goldsmith with a critical role.

The fictional animal will help the show’s stars, Mr. Bull and Ms. Bull, prepare for their wedding — a role similar to his partner’s character. Perry, who voices Miss Leopard, supports the wedding process by helping the Peppa Pig community prepare.
The pair reportedly completed their work on the children’s show before the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike began. Although their voice acting performances did not violate union rules, they did not win hearts when fans mobbed the couple on social media platforms like X.
Conspiracy theorists attribute the duo’s animated features to their viral property dispute with an older man, saying the pair didn’t deserve to be on the show. One critic quipped: “Both of them being on a children’s show abusing parents is crazy but ok.”
“The kids are showing propaganda to distract you from the fact that the couple stole the house from our grandparents for fun,” claimed another disgruntled fan. “They’ll have to pay those legal fees somehow,” teased a third while another X user came up with various evil plots about the upcoming “Peppa Pig” episode.
“Will he and Katie spark a legal battle with Peppa’s parents over their inheritance too?” Some wonder. One conspiracy theorist said: “The episode where Miss Leopard and Mr Raccoon try to evict old Peppa Pig.”
The trolling continued with another jester declaring, “This episode is about how they came and tried to kick grandma Peppa out of her house. Another critic asked sarcastically, “Is Ms. Leopard taking advantage of Mr. Raccoon’s dying grandparents?”

Perry received similar backlash when her part in the “Peppa Pig” 20th anniversary special was announced days earlier—in a statement from the program’s parent company, Hasbro Entertainment, President Olivier Dumont gushed about having the “Roar” singer in the TV show.
“As a loving parent and fan of Peppa herself, Katy Perry is perfectly suited to voice the character of Miss Leopard,” claims Dumont. Despite his high praise, fans were more concerned about why an alleged elder abuser would be on a children’s show.
As noted, Perry and Bloom were involved in a property dispute with an 84-year-old veteran named Carl Westcott. The Billboard Women in Music Awardee got engaged to the older man in 2020 following an attempt to buy his Santa Barbara home for $15 million.
Westcott and his family have filed a lawsuit against the AMA winner and his fiancée to block the sale of the property. Instead, the couple responded by asking for $2.6 million in damages.
Katy Perry’s Estate Dispute Looks Like It Inspires Bill To Protect Parents From Her
Amid the “California Gurls” singer’s legal battle with Westcott and her family, a new bill targeting elder abuse is gaining traction.

Days after Perry and Westcott’s trial began, efforts to introduce the Retirement Age Protection Act intensified. The bill, known as the Katy Perry Act, would address “the risk of financial abuse of the elderly, particularly related to the sale and transfer of real estate and real estate” if adopted.
A website dedicated to the bill explains that “The Act establishes a 72-hour cooling-off period during which any party involved in a contract for the transfer of a private residence, where one party is over 75 years of age, may cancel the agreement . without penalty.”
The announcement sparked a controversial X theory as users believed the bill was necessary to protect the elderly and their homes from Perry. In the comments, someone recalled how the “Firework” filmmaker’s previous property fight seemed to have led to the death of a nun.
According to netizens, Sister Catherine Rose Holzman died in March 2018 amid a court battle against Perry’s $14.5 million purchase of an 8-acre convent in Los Angeles.
