Recently single Hollywood star Orlando Bloom is reportedly interested in dating Nicole Kidman after both ended their high-profile relationships. The English-born actor, 48, is said to have placed the Oscar-winning actress at the top of his dating wish list following his split from Katy Perry earlier this year.
“Orlando has Nicole at the top of his dream date wish list, and not just because of her A-list status,” an insider told New Idea magazine. “He's always had a thing for Nicole, for a very simple reason — they have history together.”
Although they never publicly dated, Bloom and Kidman were seen together in March 2002 at the Vanity Fair Oscars Party, showcasing obvious chemistry one year after Kidman’s split from Tom Cruise.
“There was chemistry between them all night. Orlando was clearly entranced by Nicole and she loved his attention,” the source added.
The insider noted that while Bloom was serious about his interest, Kidman did not view it the same way, leaving him disappointed.
Rumors suggest Orlando Bloom hopes to reconnect with Nicole Kidman romantically after both recently ended their celebrity relationships.
