Katy Perry and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau were photographed holding hands in Paris this week, sparking further confirmation of their burgeoning romance as perry celebrated her 39th birthday. The images, surfacing shortly after reports indicated the pair are keeping their relationship “low-key,” offer the first visual evidence of physical affection between the pop star and the world leader.
The developing relationship between Perry and trudeau arrives as both navigate distinct public and personal chapters.Perry recently concluded the North American leg of her “Witness” tour and has been increasingly focused on her music career and business ventures. Trudeau, while continuing his duties as Prime Minister, has faced political headwinds domestically.Their connection, initially reported in July following a dinner in Montreal, suggests a potential new dynamic for both figures.
Sources initially told Us Weekly that Perry “is really into it. She’s vrey happy,” and actively seeking to maintain privacy around the connection. “She’s trying to keep it low-key, and they’ve spent a lot of private time together. She’s not looking to publicize this relationship.”
An insider added to the publication that friends of the couple believe they are a good match. “Their friends think they are a good match, but he hasn’t met a lot of her friends yet,” the source said.
Reports from People in mid-October revealed Trudeau “has been pursuing her as [their Montreal date],” even traveling to California during Perry’s tour break. According to the source, “[He has] been pursuing her since [their Montreal date]. He even flew to california to see her during a tour break. They have an easy connection. She finds him attractive. He’s been very respectful.”
Another source indicated Perry wasn’t initially seeking a relationship when they first connected. “when she first hung out with justin, she wasn’t looking to date, but they stayed in touch.They have many shared interests and a lot to talk about, but Katy was navigating too many things to even think about dating then.”
