The August 17 episode of Catfish featured a Knoxville man who believed he had been dating Katy Perry for six years. He had even used his savings to design an engagement ring that featured his grandmother’s emerald.
When the “Rise” singer was made aware, she called the situation “really unfortunate and really sad.”
“You know, like, my heart goes out to him actually, because anybody that’s been fooled like that or just, you know, people have dreams… I empathize,” Perry said.
Perry, 31, has been dating Orlando Bloom, 39, since January 2016.
