While many Canadians are planning their next holiday, former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his girlfriend, pop sensation Katy Perry, are already enjoying an early Valentine's Day celebration. The couple shared a series of intimate and playful photos on social media, giving fans a glimpse into their romantic getaway.
Instagram Official Romance
In a recent Instagram post, the 41-year-old singer, known for hits like "Dark Horse," uploaded a carousel of images featuring Trudeau. The caption, "Let love be the revolution," accompanied photos that included the pair wearing ski helmets and goggles on a snowy mountaintop, as well as a black-and-white shot of them dressed up for dinner. Perry, who shares a 5-year-old daughter, Daisy Dove, with ex-fiancé Orlando Bloom, also posted a curious image showing instructions for solving a Rubik's Cube on what appears to be letterhead from the Office of the Prime Minister of Canada.
From Japan to Holiday Escapes
This latest photo dump follows their Instagram official debut in December, when Perry shared highlights from their trip to Japan. Over the Christmas holidays, the couple embarked on a warm-weather escape, with Trudeau seen smiling while swimming under clear skies and Perry nuzzling him for a kiss at sunset. Their relationship, which began last summer after a dinner date in Montreal, has quickly blossomed into a public romance, with sightings including a yacht embrace in late September and a birthday celebration at Crazy Horse Paris in October.
Insights from Close Sources
Although neither Perry nor Trudeau have publicly commented on their relationship, insiders have provided details to media outlets. A source close to Perry told PEOPLE that dating Trudeau was an unexpected "life twist" after her split from Bloom, noting that his persistence turned their friendship into something real. Another confidante described Trudeau as "crazy" about Perry, with the couple sharing interests in politics, children, and French cuisine. An insider added that Trudeau is "a much happier person now" with reduced stresses, enjoying laughter and deep conversations with Perry.
Political Humor and Public Appearances
Trudeau even referenced their relationship during a speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, last month. While discussing Canada's stance against U.S. policies, he joked about a date with "an American girl" in Montreal, alluding to Perry's order of Jack and Coke being met with a ban on American alcohol. Perry was in attendance, supporting his remarks on soft power and international relations.
Sophie Grégoire's Response
Meanwhile, Trudeau's ex-wife, Sophie Grégoire, has addressed the constant media attention surrounding his new relationship. In a November interview on the Can’t Be Censored podcast, she described the chatter as "noise" that can be challenging to hear. In a recent newsletter, Grégoire opened up about the difficulties of "midlife singlehood," writing that being uncoupled at 50 on Valentine's Day doesn't feel amazing but emphasized it as a time for recalibration and self-discovery.
The couple's relationship continues to captivate public interest, blending celebrity glamour with political intrigue as they navigate their high-profile romance in the spotlight.
