Pop icon Katy Perry and former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau have reportedly sparked an “instant connection,” according to sources close to the pair.
People recently saw the two together in Montreal, igniting romance rumours that have captured global attention.
KATY PERRY AND JUSTIN TRUDEAU’S CONNECTION
A close insider said that Katy Perry, 40, and Trudeau, 53, share a strong attraction. “They are interested in each other, but it will take a while to see where this goes,” the source said, according to Page Six.
“She is travelling around the world, and he is figuring out his life now that he is no longer the prime minister of Canada, but there is an attraction. They have a lot in common.”
Music is among the mutual interests both share.
An insider noted, “Both are idealists who still live in a world where they believe they can make improvements, even though it has become more difficult.”
KATY PERRY AND JUSTIN’S FAMILY
The couple’s busy lives and parenting duties could slow down any blossoming relationship. Trudeau separated from his wife Sophie Grégoire in 2023 after 18 years of marriage.
They share three children aged 17, 16, and 11.
Katy Perry is a mother to four-year-old Daisy, whom she shares with actor Orlando Bloom, from whom she recently split after 10 years together.
The insider remarked that having involved ex-partners is an advantage. “For one thing, they each have an ex.
So, duties are split in half. And long-distance relationships, while still hard, are possible for these two”.
FIRST PUBLIC SIGHTING
The pair were first spotted dining together at an upscale Montreal restaurant, Le Violon, on 28 July. There was no overt public display of affection, but their interaction raised eyebrows.
Trudeau was also seen front and centre at Katy Perry’s sold-out Lifetimes Tour concert in Montreal days later. He was cheering her on from the crowd in a casual black T-shirt.
Justin Trudeau’s relationships have long attracted media scrutiny, but this marks his first significant romance speculation since leaving office early in 2025.
