Katy Perry recently filed a temporary restraining order against a homeless man she says has visited her California home uninvited, per a report from TMZ.

The 40-year-old singer claims Ross Elliott Hedrick, 43, visited her Santa Barbara estate multiple times in May. TMZ reported that the first time Hedrick showed up on Perry’s property, he carried a butane lighter and an aerosol can. He was reportedly arrested but returned a week later. On his second visit, he allegedly threw a blanket over the security fence. The TRO also requests protection for Perry’s partner, actor Orlando Bloom. The news comes as rumors of the couple’s breakup are swirling.

According to court documents obtained by TMZ, Perry requested a court order for Hedrick to stay at least 100 yards away from her, Bloom, her properties, her job, and her car.

Perry’s security company reportedly believes Hedrick will continue attempting to make contact with the pop star and provided screenshots of Ring video showing Hedrick at her estate.

Though Perry and Bloom haven’t publicly confirmed their split yet, multiple sources have reported that the pair is breaking up after nine years together.

“Katy and Orlando have been suffering through the same problems that have plagued them for years,” a source said, per People. “[They had] too much going on in their lives, which makes it hard to find time for each other and iron out disagreements. When they don’t communicate properly, their relationship dips to a low level.”

Perry has been having some issues with fans negatively reacting to her latest album and current “Lifetimes Tour.” Videos of the singer dancing onstage prompted viewers to question the choreography and overall quality of the show, especially in comparison to Perry’s past efforts.

The Grammy Award nominee also got mocked for joining Blue Origin’s first all-female flight crew, with critics saying the 11-minute space flight was not a big deal.

Perry referred to her many critics as “unhinged and unhealed.”
