The internet is abuzz with the unexpected and high-profile coupling of pop superstar Katy Perry and former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
Their relationship was officially made public via a series of intimate shots and videos shared by Perry on her Instagram account from their recent trip to Japan.
The “hard launch,” as fans have dubbed it, came in the form of a cozy selfie of the pair posing cheek-to-cheek, confirming months of intense speculation.
Katy Perry joined Trudeau for Dinner
Pictured together for the first time, this confirmed the closeness that had already been signaled when the couple first appeared in public, melding diplomacy and romance.
Katy Perry joined Trudeau for a formal lunch with former Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida and his wife, Yoko. Kishida later posted about the meeting on social media, pointedly referring to the pop star as Trudeau’s “partner.”
This diplomatic inclusion strongly suggested the seriousness of their bond, showcasing their comfort level in both private and high-profile international settings.

Justin Trudeau Previous Marriage Status
This public confirmation naturally brings up questions about Justin Trudeau’s personal life prior to this relationship. Yes, Justin Trudeau was married for 18 years to his wife, Sophie Grégoire Trudeau.
They married in 2005 and have three children together. But the couple announced their separation in August 2023 after many “meaningful and difficult conversations.”
So, the former prime minister was officially separated before his relationship with Katy Perry began. The separation paved the way to this new high-profile chapter in his personal life.
When Justin Trudeau & Katy Perry were Last Spotted
While the Instagram post was the official announcement, the pair had been spotted several times during the months leading up to the Japan trip and had thus fed romance rumors since the summer of 2025.
July 2025: The rumors first sparked after they were spotted dining together and taking a stroll in Montreal. October 2025: The two made a big public splash when they attended a cabaret show in Paris for Perry’s birthday, holding hands.
