Katy Perry describes Justin Trudeau as love of her life

Published 3 September 2026

Pop star Katy Perry has described former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as the "love of my life," detailing how their relationship began during a difficult personal period and has become a source of healing and support. In a recent interview, the singer reflected on meeting Trudeau in the summer of 2025, following her separation from actor Orlando Bloom. Perry and Bloom, who share a six-year-old daughter, announced their split on July 3, 2025. At the time, Perry was in Australia for her Lifetimes Tour. She described that period as "probably the hardest time," saying she felt isolated while her friends were back home. "I was crying and just feeling far away," she told PEOPLE. "But then my angels went to work. They really showed up." The shift came later that month. Perry and Trudeau were first seen together on a dinner date in Montreal on July 28, 2025, two days before her concert in the city. "I got to meet Justin on tour, and then things shifted," she explained. Following their initial meeting, Trudeau was filmed attending her Montreal concert with his daughter. The relationship became public in October 2025 when photographs of the couple together were published.
