Katy Perry and former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau spotted holding hands

Katy Perry and former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau have confirmed months of rumors of a romantic relationship. The two officially announced their relationship by being seen holding hands at Perry's 41st birthday celebration.

Rumors of a relationship began last summer when Perry and Trudeau were seen dining alone at a Montreal restaurant. Shortly thereafter, the couple was spotted embracing each other on a yacht, further fueling the romance.

Perry and Trudeau, caught on camera at the birthday celebration, simply smiled and answered reporters' questions. The couple's happiness was evident when a reporter presented Perry with flowers.

Katy Perry ended her 10-year relationship with actor Orlando Bloom in June. The couple, who got engaged in 2019, amicably parted ways, prioritizing the well-being of their four-year-old daughter, Daisy Dove, and announced they would collaborate on co-parenting.

Meanwhile, Justin Trudeau announced his divorce from his wife of 18 years, Sophie Grégoire Trudeau, last year. The couple, who have three children, stated that they had ended their marriage out of mutual respect and would maintain their family ties.
