Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau Go Instagram Official With Tokyo Posts

Kishida’s “partner” post that Trudeau reshared signaled the shift from rumor to a public relationship.

Overview

  • Perry shared a Japan carousel on Dec. 6 featuring a cheek‑to‑cheek selfie with Trudeau and a video of her trying uni as he looked on.
  • Days earlier, former Japan PM Fumio Kishida posted a lunch photo calling Perry Trudeau’s “partner,” which Trudeau reshared with a note thanking Kishida.
  • The social posts capped months of sightings, including a July dinner in Montreal, Trudeau singing along at her concert, and October photos of the pair holding hands in Paris.
  • Neither has issued a formal statement beyond the social media posts, which outlets widely interpreted as the couple’s public confirmation.
  • Context includes recent personal changes: Trudeau served as Canada’s prime minister from 2015 to 2025 and separated from Sophie Grégoire in 2023, while Perry split from Orlando Bloom in 2025 and they share a 5‑year‑old daughter.
