Before we get into it this week, let’s take a quick look at some tragic news in the world of celebrity couples. Can you believe there are reports that Orlando Bloom and noted astronaut Katy Perry are headed for a breakup?

Sad. That’s the only word that I can come up with. It captures it perfectly. Especially with the news that Bloom is attending Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’s wedding solo.

TMZ says – if you need a minute, take it now – “Sources tell TMZ … OB plans to attend the days-long wedding celebration in Venice, Italy, taking place later this month … and Katy ain’t going to be by his side — but in this instance, there’s a perfectly logical explanation.”

A wedding. That’s how Bloom and Perry were supposed to take their relationship to the next step. I told you, sad. They’ve been engaged since Valentine’s Day 2019. What has gone wrong?

Perry, who, aside from being an astronaut, makes terrible music and is currently on tour in Australia. That would explain why Bloom is attending the wedding solo, but it wouldn’t explain the rumors of a breakup.

Who doesn’t love a good celebrity breakup rumor? I’m wishing them the best of luck. Who knows, maybe they’ll patch it up and tie the knot themselves one day.

That would be beautiful and so would a nice “sleeping with the nanny” scandal to follow. There’s always hope. Now to a couple who can’t keep their hands off of each other, even in the middle of a school dance recital.

Indiana couple caught committing obscene acts on one another while in audience of school dance recital

Now that’s a headline that reads romance right there. Should they have waited until after the high school dance recital they were attending? Sure, there’s a very good argument suggesting that.

But sometimes you and the person you’re meant to be with just can’t wait. Unfortunately, there are consequences to acting on those romantic urges in mixed company.

The Daily Mail reports that Carly Ann Dominski, 44, and Steven Ulman, 49, were arrested  on Saturday after an incident of uncontrolled passion inside the Lake Central High School Auditorium in Indiana.

The couple were allegedly caught with their hands down each other’s pants at a dance recital in view of others in attendance. The foreplay was reported to St. John Police Department officer by school staff members.

According to an arrest affidavit obtained by the Daily Mail, staff members told the officer that the couple were performing “lewd acts” on one another in the auditorium during a large dance recital.

The officer then caught them in the act. He said he saw Dominski with her hand down Ulman’s pants “fondling Ulman’s genitals.”

Ulman, according to the affidavit, also had his hand down the front of Dominski’s pants and was fondling her. Both allegedly had their pants unbuttoned.

The officer asked them to leave the auditorium, which they did after buttoning their pants. They then fled to the parking lot and tried to leave, but officers were able to stop them after they got into their vehicle.

Dominski is alleged to have initially told officers that her name was Jessica Ulman. A search of her purse revealed her real name on an Illinois license.

A search of Ulman revealed a bottle of clear liquid that was identified as lube by his partner in the alleged crime. Ulman is facing a public indecency charge for letting romance get the better of him.

Dominski, it turns out, had some outstanding warrants. Reportedly for identity deception, unlawful possession of a syringe, false informing, paraphernalia possession and theft.

She was charged with public indecency and false reporting.

I mentioned this story to my wife, who responded by asking “what is wrong with them?” That is a perfectly reasonable question to ask most people, but I immediately said, “nothing, it’s romance.”

You think being married to me for all these years, that she would know this by now. I will admit that these two got carried away and the foreplay in an auditorium full of people was a huge mistake on their part.

But when you boil it all down, at its core romance was at the wheel when they got busted.

This Week in True Romance:

It didn’t take long for her to fall for the mistress’ husband. She wrote on Reddit, “We slept together for the first time two weeks ago. It was great, and he was so soft after. Chad usually just rolled over after he was done but Carter gave me a massage and kissed me and made me feel beautiful and like a complete human being.”

The old payback an affair with an affair move is paying off. She’s been back a few times since and says, “I can honestly say I’ve completely fallen for Carter.”

This is how you navigate the depths of uncovering that you’re being cheated on. Getting mad and confronting them only leads to drama. You have to test the waters with the other person who is being cheated on.

If not, that could be a missed connection with an insane amount of guilt later on. What could have been? Nobody wants to live with a bunch of what could have beens.

“In about two months, I’ll have saved up enough money to put a down payment on a small house, and I can’t wait to start my separation period,” she added.

“I’m hurting so much inside because I feel like Chad [her husband] never loved me or cared about me and I’m finally seeing somebody who does. I’m not angry anymore, I just want this to be over.”

That’s the spirit. Coming together as two people looking for revenge on cheating spouses is what love and romance is all about. I have a good feeling about the future for her and the mistress’ husband.
