Orlando Bloom was Kate Bosworth's "first big heartbreak"

American actress Kate Bosworth admits that her split from Orlando Bloom was her 'first big heartbreak'.

The two stars started dating in 2002, but had split four years later.

Now, in an interview with fashion magazine Vogue, she admits that she was heartbroken at the time, and that she regrets that their relationship was too intense for both.

"Orlando and I met when we were kids. Blue Crush hadn't come out. Lord of the Rings hadn't come out. ... He was the first big heartbreak. ... First love: You feel like it's the be-all and end-all. ... To put as little pressure on the relationship you're in is very important. I regret that it was too intense for both of us," The New York Post quoted her, as saying.

However, the 25-year-old actress still manages to be friends with Bloom and is quite proud of the bond she shares with him now.

"The fact that I'm very close with my past relationships is something I pride myself on. My mom is still close to her first husband. It's nice to be able to enjoy someone in a different form," she said.
