Orlando Bloom is desperate to find his dream girl and start a family.

The 'Pirates of the Caribbean' star, who is currently single, wants to settle down and is on the look out for 'Miss Right'.

He told Weekend magazine: "I'd like to live a proper family life - with a partner and kids. That's what it's all about, isn't it? I've had a crazy life, in many ways, and I realise now I want someone to share it with."

Orlando - who recently ended a four year on-off relationship with actress Kate Bosworth - has been linked with a string of famous beauties in recent months, including Penelope Cruz, Kirsten Dunst and Sienna Miller.

Although he is actively searching for a new girlfriend, Orlando is sick of being romantically linked to every woman he is seen with.

The 30-year-old actor said: "I can't bump into someone without people thinking we're an item. But I can definitely say there's no one serious in my life right now.

"It's a little odd but that's the trade-off of fame, I suppose. I'm not going to moan about it though because, let's face it, I never thought fame, celebrity, whatever you want to call it, would happen to me. And when it does, you can't knock it. I do appreciate how lucky I am."
