After the “E.T.” singer returned to Earth following her 10-minute trip on Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin spaceflight—which also included Gayle King and the tech billionaire’s fiancée Lauren Sánchez—she shared how her and Orlando Bloom’s 4-year-old daughter Daisy Dove is helping her adjust back to gravity.
“Back to the best reality,” Katy wrote in an April 16 Instagram Story, “packing school lunch.”
The photo included a glimpse into Daisy Dove’s schooltime meal, which included pineapple, cheese, carrots, pretzels and a star-shaped sandwich.
And while Katy is back to supporting her daughter, Daisy was, of course, there to support her mom during her momentous spaceflight April 14. Indeed, the preschooler was at the Texas launch April 14 with dad Orlando, beaming with pride as her mother headed up to space. Daisy even donned a silver astronaut costume for even more moral support.
Meanwhile, Katy brought a real daisy flower aboard the ship, telling a reporter that in addition to the token being representative of her only child, “They are a reminder of our beautiful Earth and the magic that is everywhere and all around us, even in a simple daisy.”
Katy wasn’t the only one receiving lots of love from her inner circle amid her big journey. Gayle, for her part, was supported by her own kids Kirby Bumpus and Will Bumpus, as well as her lifelong bestie Oprah Winfrey. The latter, who gushed over her nearly 50-year friendship with the CBS Mornings host, was moved to tears upon seeing the Blue Origin launch.
