"The texting stepped up in January when things started going bad between Katy and John. Rob's been a real shoulder for her to cry on," the source explained. "Since he's been single, though, the texts have hotted up... they're always flirty."
Pattinson, who split from actress Kristen Stewart in May last year, is currently filming his latest movie "Life" in Canada. Meanwhile Perry has been busy promoting her upcoming Prismatic world tour, which kicks off in May.
"He's in Toronto filming and they've even planned for her to make a secret trip to see him," the insider revealed.
Last year Perry denied reports claiming she and the British actor, 27, are more than friends during an interview with Elle magazine UK.
"Okay, so here's the proof there was never anything going on with me and Robert Pattinson … I fart in front of him," the pop star told Elle.
"Properly fart. And I never, ever fart in front of a man I am dating. That's a rule," she continued. "He's my bud, I'm like his big sister. We just hang out. The other day, I said, 'One of the things I'm most proud of is not sleeping with you, Robert.' And that's true."
