Orlando Bloom 'In Love With the Idea of Love' Post-Divorce
Orlando Bloom recently announced his split from Miranda Kerr, but fortunately, the actor is not giving up on love.
The "Pirates of the Caribbean" star had been married to Kerr, a former Victoria's Secret model for three years before their breakup last month. The pair share one son together, three-year-old Flynn.
In addition to Bloom and Kerr's split being "amicable," the actor remains positive when it comes to finding love again.

"I'm completely in love with the idea of love," said the 36-year-old star while speaking to Elle magazine.
"Maybe I'm all misty about it because I'm playing Romeo," Bloom explained, referring to his role in the Broadway show "Romeo and Juliet."
"But I really believe in, you know, that sort of heart-to-heart connection," he added.
Meanwhile, "The Lord of the Rings" star made it very clear that he and his ex-wife will remain close for the sake of their child while speaking to Katie Couric last month.
"We love each other," he said. "We're a family. We're going to be in each other's lives for the rest of our lives."
The actor went on to cite life's unpredictability when it came to his divorce while on the "Katie" show.
"You know, life sometimes doesn't work out exactly like you plan or hope for," the actor said. "But fortunately, we're both adults, and we're professionals, and we love and care about each other. And we, most of all, love our son."

At the time of their split, Bloom and Kerr released a joint statement revealing that they had been living apart for months, but are now taking formal steps to dissolve their marriage.
"Orlando Bloom and Miranda Kerr have announced they have been amicably separated for the past few months," a rep for the actor revealed, according to E! News. "After six years together, they have recently decided to formalize their separation. Despite this being the end of their marriage, they love, support and respect each other as both parents of their son and as family."
Today, Bloom is reportedly moving forward with his love life already- the actor is romantically linked to Liv Tyler.
Alternately, recent headlines also suggest that Kerr has moved on with Australian billionaire James Packer.
