The actor, said
his bride-to-be has been a 'force of nature' throughout her pregnancy and has
been keeping things 'business as usual' despite being set to give birth to a
baby girl in the coming weeks.
It comes
after Katy revealed she considered taking her own life following her split from
now-fiancé Orlando in 2017 and her album Witness' poor chart performance.

Speaking to
Associated Press ahead of the release of his new film Outpost, Orlando said: 'She's
great, she's in a great place. Aside from a giant belly you wouldn't know she's
a force of nature, as you know.
'It's been
really impressive there's been no complaining, she's just been all about it. It's
pretty awe-inspiring the way she handles herself, the way it's business as
usual.'
Katy
announced she was expecting her first child with Orlando in March, when she
unveiled her bump in the video for her single Never Worn White.
It comes
after Katy candidly admitted she hit rock bottom in 2017 following low moments
in her professional and personal life, and even contemplated suicide.
She told
radio station SiriusXM CBC: 'My career was on this trajectory when it was going
up, up and up and then I had the smallest shift, not that huge from an outside
perspective. But for me it was seismic.
'I had
given so much out, and it literally broke me in half. I had broken up with my
boyfriend, who is now my baby daddy-to-be.

'And then I
was excited about flying high off the next record. But the validation did not
make me high, and so I just crashed.'
The star,
who grew up with parents who were Pentecostal pastors, went on to reveal that
her faith helped her heal over time.
She
continued: 'It was so important for me to be broken so that I could find my
wholeness in a whole different way. And be more dimensional than just living my
life like a thirsty pop star all the time.
'Gratitude
is probably the thing that saved my life, because if I did not find that I
would have wallowed in my own sadness and probably just jumped.
'But I
found the ways to be grateful. If it gets really, really hard I walk around and
say, "I am grateful, I am grateful!"; even though I am in a sh***y
mood.'
The
California native went on to reveal that she is now in a much better place
after a years of dealing with mental health issues.
She said: 'Hope
has always been an option for me, because of my relationship with God and
something that is bigger than me. Of course if I am the one controlling my
destiny I am going to be the one driving it into the ground.
'My hope is
that something bigger than me created me for a purpose and created me for a
reason, and that I’m not disposable, and that every person that’s been created
has a purpose.'
Katy and
Orlando were first linked when they were seen flirting at the Golden Globe
Awards in January 2016, and went public with their relationship a few months
later in May at the Cannes Film Festival.
The couple
parted ways just over a year later in March 2017, but the split wasn't to last
and they got back together later that year.
