August 2016: NSFW!

The New York Daily News publishes photos of Bloom and Kerry paddleboarding in Italy. She wears a printed bikini...he wears...nothing. He does, however, keep his swimming trunks on during a make-out session back on shore. He would later tell ELLE U.K.,"I wouldn't have put myself in that position if I'd thought it would happen. I've been photographed a million times in a million different ways. I have a good radar. We'd been completely alone for five days—nothing around us. There was no way anyone could get anything. I had a moment of feeling free...What can I tell you? Note to self: You're never free. Ha!"

September 2016: Her One Complaint...

Perry tells Women's Wear Daily, "My boyfriend lives in Malibu and getting used to that [drive] was like, 'Are you kidding me? What kind of life is this?' There's no pop-over and I never really got used to Malibu ‘cause it's halfway to Santa Barbara, so I'm always just going to Santa Barbara then. I get the whole coming to L.A. and living by the beach thing. But it's really like, it's so far, nobody [who lives in town] is going to come see you."
