Actor Orlando Bloom has stirred controversy after posting a beach photo of his four-year-old daughter, Daisy Dove, that many viewers found inappropriate. The image, shared on Instagram, initially showed the child without any cover before Bloom later edited it to include a heart emoji for privacy.
The Lord of the Rings star shares Daisy with singer Katy Perry, from whom he separated earlier this year. The pair, who met in 2016 and welcomed their daughter in 2020, have long been protective of her identity—avoiding photos that reveal her face.
However, many social media users voiced concern over the original image. One critic wrote, “It’s confusing — they protect her face, but post a naked picture?” Others called Bloom’s actions “out of touch” and questioned his judgment.
Not everyone agreed. Some fans defended the actor, saying the photo was innocent and critics were overreacting. “Kids run around naked all the time,” one user said. “People are making it weird.”
The incident highlights the growing debate over celebrity parenting and online privacy — especially in an era where even innocent moments can spark fierce discussion.
