Earlier this month, Katy revealed on Twitter she had been battling ‘waves of depression’ as she copes with the ongoing health crisis afflicting the world. 

‘Sometimes I don’t know what’s worse trying to avoid the virus or the waves of depression that come with this new norm,’ the pop star tweeted.

Katy has been candid with fans about her struggles with mental health, and recently admitted she once struggled to get out of bed.

‘In the past, I had been able to overcome it, but this time something happened that made me fall down too many flights of stairs. I had to really go on a mental health journey,’ she told the January edition of Vogue India.

She also said she and her fiance have gone on a ‘spiritual journey’ together, and bring out the best in each other. 

‘Orlando is like a sage,’ she said. ‘When we first met, he said we would pull the poison out of each other, and we really do. It’s exhausting, but we really hold each other accountable. 

‘I’ve never had a partner who was willing to go on an emotional and spiritual journey like Orlando. It’s challenging, because you’re facing all the things you don’t like about yourself. It’s like a never-ending cleanse.’
