Orlando has denied he has split from girlfriend Kate Bosworth - Nov 1 ,2005
Orlando Bloom has denied he has split from girlfriend Kate Bosworth. The heartthrob actor, who has enjoyed an on/off romance with the screen beauty, insists the pair are still an item and has also quashed rumours he has been romancing his ’Elizabethtown’ co-star Kirsten Dunst.
Bloom, 28, claims the constant speculation about his love life is the price he has to pay for being a successful actor. He said: "These rumours are the price you pay for a great job and a great lifestyle, it’s like a tax. If you want to screw around it’s your choice and you accept it when you get caught."
Last month, Dunst strongly denied she was romancing her handsome co-star. Rumours began surfacing the pair were are an item after they were spotted several times cosying up to one another on the set of ’Elizabethtown’. However, Dunst, who is dating ’Donnie Darko’ star Jake Gyllenhaal, refuted the claims - insisting she and Bloom are just good friends. She said at the time: "People alluding as to whether Orlando and I got together then that’s a no. No!"

Struggling through many classes at school, it took several years for Orlando to be diagnosed as dyslexic but made the most of his time at St Edmund’s School by taking part in theatre projects. He joined the National Youth Theatre in London at sixteen where he gained a scholarship to work with the British American Drama Academy, while also taking bit parts in Casualty, Midsomer Murders and Smack the Pony. It was around this time that he picked up his first movie role, alongside Jude Law and Stephen Fry in Wilde.
In 1998 Orlando attended the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, where he fell from a roof terrace, breaking his back and facing permanent paralysis. However he quickly recovered and almost immediately was spotted by director Peter Jackson, who signed him up for the part of Legolas in the epic Lord of the Rings trilogy. Since this Orlando has gone stratospheric, appearing in numerous films including Pirates of the Caribbean, The Calcium Kid, Troy and Kingdom of Heaven. He now lives between London and LA and has an on/off relationship with fellow actor Kate Bosworth.
