Justin Trudeau and Katy Perry have finally made their relationship public on Instagram. The renowned pop star shared a series of photos and videos showing intimate moments with the former Prime Minister during her visit to Japan while on tour. In one snapshot, Trudeau and Perry are seen smiling with their cheeks touching, and in a short video, they are enjoying sushi together.

The revelation came shortly after Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida posted a photo featuring the couple alongside him and his wife Yuko, referring to Perry as Trudeau’s “partner.” Trudeau reposted the image, expressing his gratitude for the meeting with Kishida and Yuko.

The couple made their first public appearance in October after much speculation about their relationship. However, they have not publicly addressed the nature of their bond. Earlier this year, Perry and her long-time fiancé, actor Orlando Bloom, announced their separation after seven years together, sharing a daughter.

Similarly, Trudeau and Sophie Grégoire ended their 18-year relationship in the summer of 2023, ultimately leading to Trudeau resigning as the leader of the Liberal Party and Prime Minister in March. Here’s a look at some key moments from the new couple:

On July 28, Trudeau and Perry were spotted together in Montreal, taking a walk in Mount Royal Park with Perry’s dog, dining at a popular restaurant, and enjoying drinks at a trendy bar. Two days later, Trudeau attended Perry’s concert in Montreal with his daughter Ella-Grace.

In October, photos surfaced of Trudeau and Perry on Perry’s yacht off the coast of California, showing them in an affectionate embrace. During Perry’s London concert, she hinted at her relationship status, and later in the month, the couple was seen holding hands in Paris.

In December, Perry shared more moments from their time in Japan on her Instagram, garnering significant engagement from fans. The internet has been abuzz with opinions on the couple, with various reactions ranging from support to surprise and criticism. Overall, their public debut on Instagram received mixed reactions from users, with some expressing joy and others voicing skepticism.
