The Kent-raised actor shares custody of Flynn with his ex-wife Miranda Kerr, 33, who is engaged to Snapchat CEO and founder Evan Spiegel, 26.

Katy and Orlando have been inseparable since they were first spotted getting cosy at a Golden Globes party back in January.

Meanwhile Katy split from comedian ex-husband Russell Brand in 2012 after just 14 months of marriage.

She then went on to have an on/off romance with singer John Mayer before falling for Orlando's charms.
