Rumors are swirling that pop superstar Katy Perry is in a new relationship with former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, following several recent public sightings together in Montreal.
The pair were first spotted dining at the upscale restaurant Le Violon in late July, where eyewitnesses told TMZ they appeared relaxed, shared several dishes, and enjoyed drinks throughout the evening.
Just days later, Trudeau was seen attending Perry’s concert at Montreal’s Bell Centre, accompanied by his 16-year-old daughter, Ella-Grace. Social media photos captured the former prime minister smiling alongside his daughter, while video footage showed him singing along to Perry’s hit "Dark Horse."
The relationship rumors emerged shortly after news broke that Perry and actor Orlando Bloom had ended their engagement. The former couple began dating in 2016, briefly split in 2017, then reconciled in 2018. They became engaged in 2019 and welcomed a daughter, Daisy, in August 2020. Their split was confirmed in June 2025.
Adding a humorous twist to the unfolding story, satirical outlet The Onion posted a fake photo of Bloom dining with former German Chancellor Angela Merkel, joking about the actor moving on quickly from Perry.
"Angela kept Orlando laughing all night—he couldn’t keep his eyes off her!" read the parody caption, describing a romantic dinner complete with oysters and chocolate cake. Bloom appeared to be in on the joke, responding with three clapping emojis in the comments.
While the Trudeau-Perry pairing has not been confirmed, the speculation has sparked interest in other celebrity-political relationships. Perry would join a small group of stars who have dated or married prominent political figures.
As of now, representatives for both Perry and Trudeau have not commented on the rumors, leaving fans and media to speculate whether this political-pop culture romance is the real deal.
