Katy Perry & Justin Trudeau Are Now IG Official

After her last relationship went south, it looks like Katy Perry is headed north for her next romance. The pop star has been raising eyebrows after being spotted getting close with former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. After the two were photographed at an intimate dinner at the end of July, Trudeau showed up at Perry’s concert in Montreal. And the electric chemistry has heated up since, with recent photos of the two packing on the PDA and even a social media launch.

According to a People source, the duo is “interested in each other,” but their connection was still in the early stages over the summer. “She is traveling around the world, and he is figuring out his life now that he is no longer prime minister of Canada, but there is an attraction. They have a lot in common,” the source said on Aug. 2.

Adding further fuel to the fire, Perry’s ex-fiancé Orlando Bloom weighed in a telling meme on Instagram referencing the rumors. On Aug. 1, satirical site The Onion posted a fake headline that read, “Orlando Bloom Spotted At Dinner With Angela Merkel,” a clear nod to a surprising romance between a celebrity and a politician. Bloom commented three clapping emojis on the post.

Neither Perry nor Trudeau has spoken about one another publicly, but social media was shocked when photos of the singer and politician looking flirty at a private dinner went viral on July 29. The New York Times confirmed the unlikely pair dined at Le Violon in Montreal the day prior, with one of the restaurant’s chefs adding the duo was “in great spirits” during the meal.

Shortly afterward, fans noticed Trudeau in the audience at Perry’s July 30 concert in Montreal as part of her Lifetimes Tour. Not only did the politician sing along to Perry’s hits, video also captured him seemingly staring longingly at the pop star, and Perry even appeared to gesture toward him while singing her suggestive song “Nirvana.”

And the spiciest update yet came on Oct. 12, when Perry and Trudeau were photographed kissing in an intimate embrace while on a yacht off the California coast. Then, on Oct. 29, Trudeau made a subtle cameo on Perry’s Instagram grid, smiling and clapping along in the background of a video Perry posted of her 41st birthday cake.

This new development comes shortly after Perry announced her separation from Bloom. The two had dated off and on for nearly a decade, first getting together back in 2016 before entering into an engagement in 2019. In 2020, Perry gave birth to their daughter, Daisy Dove Bloom. The former couple has indicated that they are committed to co-parenting their daughter despite the split.

Trudeau has also ended a long-term relationship in recent years. In 2023, he and his ex-wife, Sophie Grégoire-Trudeau, announced their separation after 20 years together. The former couple has three children together.

While this rumored romance between Perry and Trudeau still has yet to be officially confirmed, it certainly looks like Perry has found a shoulder to lean on in Canada as she moves forward from her breakup.
