American pop icon Katy Perry has confirmed her relationship with former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, putting an end to weeks of speculation. The singer made the announcement through an Instagram carousel, sharing several moments from the pair’s recent getaway to Japan — including a warm selfie where the two are seen leaning close to each other.

The post also featured a short clip of Perry and Trudeau enjoying a meal and spending relaxed time together. “tokyo times on tour and more,” she wrote in the caption, subtly acknowledging their bond.

Their relationship came into sharper focus after Perry accompanied Trudeau during his visit to former Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida and his wife, Yuko. Kishida himself referred to Perry as Trudeau’s partner in a post on X, noting that he was pleased to reconnect with Trudeau outside the realm of politics. He recalled their earlier collaborations, including the Japan-Canada Action Plan, and expressed happiness at maintaining their friendship in a personal capacity.

The couple’s romance first grabbed public attention when the two were spotted strolling with their dogs in Canada back in July. They later stepped out together officially on October 25 in Paris, where they were seen celebrating Perry’s 41st birthday.

Reports suggest that Trudeau had shown interest in the singer since their time together in Montreal, and the relationship gradually grew from there.
