Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau pictured holding hands at Paris event

Pop sensation Katy Perry and former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau have seemingly confirmed their romantic relationship after being photographed holding hands at an event in Paris. The images, captured by celebrity news outlet TMZ, show the duo walking hand-in-hand before entering a vehicle, with Trudeau assisting Perry into the back seat amidst a flurry of camera flashes. Neither Perry nor Trudeau has publicly addressed the relationship, but speculation has been mounting for weeks following multiple sightings of the pair together. Earlier this year, Trudeau was spotted attending one of Perry’s concerts, further fueling rumors of a budding romance. The Paris outing coincided with Perry’s 41st birthday, marking what appears to be their first public appearance as a couple. Representatives for both Perry and Trudeau’s Liberal Party have yet to comment on the matter. During a recent performance in London, Perry seemingly hinted at her relationship status when she humorously responded to a fan’s marriage proposal by saying, ‘I wish you’d asked me 48 hours ago.’ This remark came shortly after photos of her and Trudeau first surfaced online. Perry was previously in a decade-long relationship with actor Orlando Bloom, with whom she shares a daughter. The couple separated earlier this summer. Trudeau, who served as Canada’s prime minister from 2015 to 2025, was married to Sophie Grégoire for 18 years before their divorce in 2023. They have three children together.
