Katy Perry says Justin Trudeau is the ‘love of her life’ at Tribeca
Katy Perry gushed over her partner Justin Trudeau at the Tribeca Film Festival, describing him as the love of her life.
Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau are red-carpet official after a year of dating.
Perry, 41, and the former Canadian prime minister, 54, stepped out during the Tribeca Festival in New York City June 8 for the premiere of the pop star’s new music documentary, “Katy Perry: The Lifetimes Tour – Live from Paris.”
The two held hands and gazed into each other’s eyes as they posed for photos together. Perry wore a floor-length white gown as Trudeau kept his look simple in a white dress shirt and black blazer over matching slacks. Trudeau also followed Perry along the carpet as she greeted fans with selfies and autographs.
The film is debuting at the annual festival with other documentaries featuring fellow musicians, including Earth, Wind & Fire, Peter Frampton, and Alicia Keys. Perry’s Paul Dugdale-directed movie, filmed in November, shows details from her ambitious Lifetimes Tour concerts, as captured by 60 cameras while she was performing in Paris.
“Now, at the end of 91 shows, I feel like a more grounded person in so many aspects of my life. I am very in love,” Perry said during a Q&A following the film’s screening.
“I met the love of my life, so I felt very anchored by that,” the singer continued. “I’m a little bit like a rainbow kite: I fly super high … and sometimes I need to be anchored. So to have that anchor finally makes me feel really whole now.”
When did Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau start dating?
Perry and Trudeau have been romantically linked since the summer of 2025, when reports of their pair’s Montreal outing made headlines. Soon after, Trudeau was caught singing along at Perry’s Montreal concert as seen in videos posted to social media.
The duo became Instagram official in December, when Perry posted a collection of photos and videos from her time in Tokyo, which included quality time with her beau. Though the two fueled speculation last year with occasional public outings, neither has publicly commented on the status of their relationship.
Trudeau, who announced his resignation as prime minister amid political pressure in January 2025, and his wife Sophie Grégoire announced their separation in August 2023. They share three children from their 18-year marriage.
Perry and ex-fiancé Orlando Bloom, with whom she shares 5-year-old daughter Daisy Dove, announced their split in July after nine years together.
“The One That Got Away” singer also alluded to her breakup from Bloom following the screening and said that in her 40s she’s learned to better process difficult emotions and experiences.
“We’re all human here,” Perry said. “Grief doesn’t discriminate. Pain doesn’t discriminate. Everyone is subjected to it in their own ways. The last year was probably one of the hardest years of my life. … There were days that were really, really hard, but I just kept going because I made a promise to my fans. I made a promise to my daughter. I made a promise to myself, and I got through it.
