Occasionally their lower leaves yellow and die like most plants. Most likely totally normal, unless you have other red flag signs/symptoms.

Very normal, just keep an eye on it, make sure it’s not any problem happening at the stem. (Sometimes it’s a good problem at that site- a root or flower spike damaging the leaf connection. Sometimes the orchid is just shedding its oldest leaves. Here’s one of mine doing the same thing.

Two of mine are blooming right now and losing a bottom leaf- totally normal! I would only worry if a top leaf starts going because that’s bad news
