What is the story about?
Pop superstar Katy Perry has turned months of romance rumours into a public confirmation. She has officially announced her relationship with former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau via Instagram. On December 6, 2025, Perry posted a carousel of photos and videos from a recently concluded trip to Tokyo, where the two appear together publicly for the first time on her social media.
In the post, Perry captioned the gallery, “Tokyo times on tour and more ( ◠‿◠ ),” followed by a bunch of emojis . Among the snapshots are warm selfies of the pair cheek-to-cheek beneath autumnal Tokyo foliage, images of them dining together, and moments at an interactive art exhibit, including one where Trudeau watches fondly while Perry samples sushi.

The reveal comes just days after the couple appeared together publicly at a diplomatic lunch in Tokyo with former Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida and his wife. Kishida, on social media, referred to Perry as Trudeau’s “partner,” which became a talking point worldwide.
Their public “hard launch” in Japan marks a definitive shift, turning whispers into headlines worldwide. The images have triggered a flurry of reactions from fans, media, and social-media commentators, with many expressing surprise, others support, and some poking fun at the unlikely pairing. Even on Reddit, fans have weighed in enthusiastically with comments like, “They look cute together,” and “Damn, they really complement each other well! Such a photogenic couple.”
Although their relationship had been the subject of speculation since the summer when they were first spotted dining together in Montréal, this Instagram post is the first time Perry has acknowledged the romance. Previously, the duo had been seen holding hands during a night out in Paris on October 25, 2025, when Perry celebrated her 41st birthday, but neither had formally addressed their relationship.
