In late July, pop star Katy Perry and former Canadian Prime Minster Justin Trudeau sparked dating rumors after being seen with one another on several occasions in Montréal. On August 2, a source stated that the “romance is in very early stages.” Both Perry and Trudeau ended their long term relationships relatively recently.
On July 3, Perry and actor Orlando Bloom announced their split after six years of being engaged in a joint statement to People, saying, “Due to the abundance of recent interest and conversation surrounding Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry’s relationship, representatives have confirmed that Orlando and Katy have been shifting their relationship over the past many months to focus on co-parenting [their daughter, 4-year-old Daisy]. They will continue to be seen together as a family, as their shared priority is—and always will be—raising their daughter with love, stability, and mutual respect.”
Trudeau and his ex Sophie Grégorie separated in 2023 after 18 years together. In a statement posted on Instagram at the time, Trudeau wrote, “Hi everyone, Sophie and I would like to share the fact that after many meaningful and difficult conversation, we have made the decision to separate. As always, we remain a close family with deep love and respect for each other and for everything we have built and will continue to build. For the well-being of our children, we ask that you respect our and their privacy. Thank you.”
Here’s the complete relationship timeline of Perry and Trudeau so far.
July 2025July 28On July 28, the pair shared a long day of activities together, starting with a walk in Montreal’s Mount Royal Park. TMZ obtained photos of Trudeau smiling alongside Perry as they strolled. They were then filmed eating at Le Violon in Montréal. In footage obtained by TMZ, Perry and Trudeau can be seen chatting, with the singer looking attentively at Trudeau.
After their meal, they had drinks on the terrace of Taverne Atlantic.
Shortly after TMZ published the dinner video, the outlet ran an interview with Le Violon’s co-owner and co-executive chef, Danny Smiles, who served them. Smiles said Perry and Trudeau didn’t show any PDA, and “he didn’t get any dating vibes from Katy and Justin...just two friends enjoying a meal.”
Perry and Trudeau enjoyed a series of courses from the chef’s tasting menu, including lobster, tuna, lamb gnocchi, and beef tartare, according to TMZ. The meal was a few hours long, and Trudeau covered the bill. Smiles called them the “perfect guests—super chill, extremely nice to the staff.”
July 30On July 30, Trudeau was seen at Perry’s Lifetimes Tour stop in Montréal. The former Canadian prime minister was spotted by fans in the crowd. His daughter Ella-Grace, was also at the concert, per Daily Mail.
Trudeau also sang along to Perry’s hit song “Firework.”
A source speaking with People said that the pair definitely have a connection, but it is a logistical challenge to date.
“They are interested in each other, but it will take a while to see where this goes,” the insider stated. “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 added, “Music is one of many things they can share. Both are idealists and still live in a world where they think they can make improvements, although it has gotten more difficult.”
They both have full lives already, as well as kids they share with former partners.
“Their own personal responsibilities could make this relationship move slower than it would, but there are ways to see the other and still fulfill their parenting responsibilities,” the source said. “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.”
A second source told People, “Justin is a [politician] who is used to living a secret life with his personal activity, and wouldn’t put on a public display at this stag. He knows they were being watched and is smart enough to play it low-key for now.”
“[The] timing seems good for them, although a romance is in very early stages,” the source added.
