Social media users are of the opinion that Justin Trudeau and Katy Perry are reportedly starting a new relationship.
So much crazy sh-t has happened this year, I honestly forgot about this storyline. Back in July, Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau were seen (and photographed) out on a dinner date. Katy had only recently confirmed her split from Orlando Bloom, but I would argue that Katy and Orlando were probably done months before they confirmed anything. It still felt like a rebound for Katy, and as typical for celebrity rebounds, the coupling made absolutely no sense. A 40-year-old fading pop star with the former Canadian prime minister? It was just weird. After several weeks of heated gossip stories about their burgeoning romance, the whole thing seemed to fizzle out. We were told that they were cooling things down and giving each other some space. That was in August. Well, two months later, and they’re canoodling on a yacht.
Nothing comes close to the golden coast … for PDA, apparently. “California Gurls” singer Katy Perry and former Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau were spotted kissing while on a yacht off the coast of Santa Barbara, as seen in photos obtained by the Daily Mail on Oct. 12.
Perry, 40, and Trudeau, 53, could also be seen embracing and cuddling. In one photo, Trudeau is cradling Perry’s backside while they rode the waves.
PEOPLE reached out to Perry’s representative for comment, but did not receive an immediate response. A rep for Trudeau declined to comment.
The rumored couple first linked in July when they were seen walking a dog before stepping out for a meal together at Montreal’s Le Violon. At the time, Perry had announced her split from ex-fiancé Orlando Bloom, with whom she shares 5-year-old daughter Daisy Dove Bloom, one month prior. Meanwhile, Trudeau separated from his wife Sophie Grégoire, with whom he shares three children, in 2023 after 18 years of marriage.
During the summer, I thought it was weird to see this relationship rollout considering Katy was still in the middle of her world tour. Seeing these photos, I thought “oh, maybe the tour is over and she finally has time to focus on her love life.” But her tour is still happening – she still has concerts scheduled through early December. I guess she’s just on a break from touring at the moment, and so she decided to have a yacht holiday with Trudeau? Honestly, I still hate this for both of them.

Meawhile, a source tells People that Perry and Trudeau’s “romance” is in its “early stages.”
“Justin is a [politician] who is used to living a secret life with his personal activity, and wouldn’t put on a public display at this stage,” the source says. “He knows they were being watched and is smart enough to play it low-key for now.”
Another source claims “they are interested in each other” but taking things slow. “She is traveling around the world, and he is figuring out his life now that he is no longer prime minister of Canada, but there is an attraction,” the source says. “They have a lot in common.”
Those commonalities reportedly include music and an optimistic worldview. “Both are idealists and still live in a world where they think they can make improvements, although it has gotten more difficult,” the source says.
July 30, 2025: Rumors don’t stop Trudeau from attending Perry’s concert with his daughter, Ella-Grace, per The Daily Mail. Fans at the Montreal show make sure to film Trudeau singing along to songs like “Teenage Dream” and “Firework.”
July 28, 2025: The outing that started it all! Perry and Trudeau share dinner at Le Violon in Montreal, Canada, according to video published by TMZ and a report by People.
“Katy and Justin seemed to have had a fantastic evening,” a rep for the restaurant later tells People. “They were super kind and friendly to the staff, and it was an absolute pleasure to have them at the restaurant.”
Prior to their dinner, Trudeau and Perry were photographed taking a walk around Montreal’s Mount Royal Park, though TMZ did not share those photos until after their alleged dinner date went viral. According to the publication, their evening continued with post-dinner drinks at Taverne Atlantic.
Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau have apparently taken their rumored romance to the next level. After being spotted dining together in Montreal over the summer, the pair were recently photographed getting cozy on a yacht off the coast of Santa Barbara. The Daily Mail published photos of the two on Saturday.
Perry and Trudeau are both recently separated from their longtime partners: the pop singer split from actor Orlando Bloom in June, while the former Canadian prime minister separated from his wife, Sophie Grégoire, in August 2023.
Are there fireworks between Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau? The global pop icon — who’s currently on her Lifetimes Tour — and the former Canadian prime minister sparked romance rumors earlier this month after they were spotted hanging out together several times. Recently, the “California Gurls” artist split from fiancé Orlando Bloom. So, dating rumors have been flying, but are they just friends?
Get an update on the nature of Katy and Justin’s relationship below.

Jennifer Aniston has made it clear that a Friends reboot or sequel is something she just can’t imagine doing, not without Matthew Perry.
In a new interview with Harper’s Bazaar U.K., published earlier this week, Aniston said it would be “literally, physically impossible” for her to return as Rachel Green following Perry’s passing. The actor, who played Chandler Bing on the beloved sitcom, died in 2023 at age 54 from the effects of ketamine, with additional health factors contributing.
“It’s heartbreaking that he had so many demons,” Aniston said. “But boy, for someone who had that much inner turmoil, he sure got to laugh a lot, and that was everything to him.”
Her words struck a deep chord with fans who still hold Friends close to their hearts. The series, which ran from 1994 to 2004, became one of the most iconic sitcoms in television history. Alongside Aniston and Perry, the show starred Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, and David Schwimmer. The six of them formed not just a legendary ensemble but also a genuine family behind the scenes.
Aniston recalled how much joy the cast found in working together. “It completely formed who I was. It was pure joy,” she said. “I couldn’t wait to get to work every day, to see those people, to read the new script.”
The last time the entire cast reunited was for Friends: The Reunion on HBO Max in 2021, an emotional moment that Perry was part of. Looking back now, Aniston described that event as even more meaningful. “We did everything we could when we could,” she said. “It almost felt like we’d been mourning Matthew for a long time because his battle was such a hard one to watch. As hard as it was for all of us and the fans, there’s a part of me that thinks this is better. I’m glad he’s out of that pain.”
Aniston’s remarks remind everyone how deeply connected the Friends cast was, and how the loss of one made a true reunion feel unimaginable. For now, Rachel, Monica, Chandler, and the rest will live on in the memories and laughter they’ve already given the world.
Mark Sanchez and Perry Mattfeld found their happily ever after in each other. The husband and wife make quite the dynamic duo in the entertainment and sports worlds, with Mark being an ex-NFL quarterback and current Fox Sports broadcaster and Perry being an actress, known for her roles in Shameless, The Idea of You, Chad Powers and more.
The spouses have been married since 2023 and have enjoyed a blissful marriage so far. However, they hit a bump along the road in October 2025 when Mark was arrested by the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department and faced three misdemeanor charges in relation to an incident when he was stabbed and hospitalized. Fox Sports released a statement about the ordeal
“We are deeply grateful to the medical team for their exceptional care and support,” the network’s statement read. “Our thoughts and prayers are with Mark, and we ask that everyone please respect his and his family’s privacy during this time.”
Neither Mark nor his wife, Perry, has publicly spoken out about his arrest and legal trouble at the time of publication, but Mark’s brother, Nick Sanchez Jr., called the situation a “distressing time” for the family, per People.
Below, Hollywood Life has rounded up a few facts so you can get to know Perry and her marriage to Mark.
Perry Mattfeld Is of Mexican Descent Like Mark Sanchez
During a June 2023 interview with People after their wedding, Perry described how she and Mark incorporated their heritage into their ceremony and reception.
“We are both of Mexican descent, and we loved the idea of celebrating there [in Oaxaca, Mexico],” Perry gushed. “We visited Oaxaca a few years ago and fell in love, so we knew it was the perfect location for us. We also liked the idea of giving our friends and family a reason to visit Oaxaca!”
Perry Mattfeld Loves to Travel
Perry and Mark had a destination wedding and subsequent honeymoon! After exchanging vows in Mexico, the then-newlyweds headed to East Africa.
“We love to travel to new places together,” Perry told People. “It’s always an adventure. We are so lucky because our careers have taken us to many cities across the world, but we both have never been on a trip like this.”
Does Mark Sanchez Have Children With His Wife?
Yes, Perry gave birth to her and Mark’s twin daughters in March 2025. Mark also has a son named Daniel from a previous relationship, and Daniel was on double duty for his father and stepmom’s wedding. He was both a groomsmen and the ring bearer.
“He got a standing ovation as he brought our rings down the aisle, and then took his place next to Mark during the ceremony,” Perry told People after she and Mark wed. “It was so special to be able to read our vows with him beside us.”
Mark also gushed that “emotional” was a “massive understatement,” adding that seeing his son “hit [him] at once like a mack truck, and after that, [he] couldn’t turn off the tears! Tears of joy, love and gratitude for getting such an incredible life partner.”
Perry Mattfeld Is an Actress
Perry has been in show business since childhood. After getting her start as a ballet dancer at the age of 5, she worked with Mattel as part of its American Girl Dolls theatre troupe by the time she was 12. She later attended the University of Southern California, where she obtained her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in acting in 2016. Since then, Perry has steadily landed on-screen roles, including in the series In the Dark and Shameless, then in the 2025 Hulu show Chad Powers.

If you thought Mo’Nique was ready to squash her issues with Tyler Perry and Oprah Winfrey, think again! ‘The Parkers’ star is still speaking on how she feels about them, and she straight-up said she has no plans to let it go.
“People say Mo’Nique when you going to stop with Tyler and Oprah, I’m not!

So for me my babies, I won’t let go and I won’t move on from that.”

Here’s Why Mo’Nique Is Standing On Business With Tyler & Oprah

Mo Breaks Down How They Can Possibly Make Amends
As for how the trio can possibly settle things? Mo basically said it will take a public apology. While speaking to TS Madison on the ‘Outlaws’ podcast. The ‘Precious’ star gave Lee Daniels props for apologizing to her while onstage in 2022 for his part in their feud, so she would appreciate if Oprah and Tyler took the same initiative. “You see what Lee Daniels did? That man walked on that stage publicly. See, you publicly shamed me, so now you have to publicly fix it,” she explained.

What Do You Think Roomies?
Jasveen Sangha has pleaded guilty to selling Matthew Perry the drug that killed him.
Matthew Perry passed away in October 2023
The 42-year-old dubbed the ‘Ketamine Queen’ has officially pleaded guilty to five charges – including supplying the ketamine that led to Perry’s death – during a hearing in Los Angeles on Wednesday (03.09.25).
Sangha – who is a dual citizen of the US and the UK – admitted one count of distribution of ketamine resulting in death, one count of maintaining a drug-involved premises, and three counts of distribution of ketamine.
Sangha is being held in federal custody and now faces up to 65 years in prison. However, prosecutors have agreed to drop three other counts relating to the distribution of ketamine, as well as one count of distribution of methamphetamine.
Prosecutors have already confirmed that they will ask for less than the maximum possible sentence. Sangha’s sentencing hearing has been set for December 10 in Los Angeles.
Perry died from accidental drowning caused by the acute effects of ketamine use in October 2023, aged 54. The Friends star – who battled addiction for years – has been prescribed ketamine by his doctor as a treatment for depression.
However, in the weeks before his passing, he’d also started to acquire the drug through illegal means.
Perry bought large amounts of the drug through Sangha shortly before he passed away.
Four other individuals – including Dr Salvador Plasencia and Dr Mark Chavez, two doctors who sold ketamine to Perry, Kenneth Iwamasa, who worked as Perry’s live-in assistant, and Eric Fleming, who sold ketamine he’d received from Sangha to Perry – have all agreed to plead guilty to charges.
Fleming and Iwamasa are potentially facing 15 to 25 years in prison, while Chavez faces up to a decade in prison. They are all due to be sentenced later this year.
Perry – who was best known for playing Chandler Bing on Friends – died due to the “acute effects of ketamine”.
An autopsy report also listed drowning, coronary artery disease and buprenorphine effects as contributing factors in the his death.
