Since confirming their relationship in late 2025, Justin Trudeau and global pop icon Katy Perry have remained one of the most talked-about cross-industry couples. From dinner outings in Montreal to a romantic getaway in Japan, their unexpected romance has consistently drawn public attention. Despite the buzz, the pair have largely chosen to keep details about their relationship private.
Now, Trudeau’s 18-year-old son, Xavier, has offered a rare glimpse into the family dynamic, sharing his thoughts about his father’s girlfriend.
Xavier Trudeau Shares His Thoughts on Katy Perry
Xavier Trudeau recently appeared in a conversation with content creator G Hobs, where he addressed what many considered the “elephant in the room” — whether he had met Katy Perry.
Confirming that they have met, Xavier gave a straightforward and positive response about the pop superstar.
“She’s cool, she’s nice.”
The conversation didn’t stop there. Xavier, who has a strong interest in music, revealed that he and the “California Gurls” singer connected over their shared passion. According to him, they had in-depth discussions about his music and future ambitions.
Given Perry’s extensive experience in the music industry, she reportedly offered him guidance and advice on possible next steps in his journey. Xavier’s comments suggested that her involvement has been both natural and supportive, highlighting that she has taken time not only to meet Trudeau’s children but also to meaningfully engage with them.
How Justin Trudeau and Katy Perry’s Romance Began
Speculation about the relationship first surfaced in the summer of 2025 when the couple was spotted having dinner at Le Violon in Montreal during Perry’s Lifetime Tour. Shortly afterward, Trudeau was seen attending her concert and singing along to her hit “Firework,” further fueling rumors.
Their first official public appearance as a couple came in October 2025 at the Crazy Horse cabaret in Paris, where they celebrated Perry’s 41st birthday. In December 2025, Perry appeared to make their relationship Instagram official by sharing photos and videos from a trip to Japan, including cozy snapshots of the pair dining together.
According to a source who spoke to People:
“He was consistent with his efforts. He’s shown her over and over again that he genuinely wants to see her. He’s flown all over the world to spend time with her while she’s been touring. She likes spending time with him.”
A New Chapter After Public Breakups
The relationship follows major personal transitions for both stars. Justin Trudeau separated from his wife of nearly 20 years, Sophie Grégoire Trudeau, in 2023. Meanwhile, Katy Perry ended her long-term engagement to actor Orlando Bloom in mid-2025.
Their pairing came after highly publicized breakups, making their romance even more surprising to fans worldwide. While rumors about a possible engagement or pregnancy have circulated online, sources close to the couple have dismissed such speculation, describing the relationship instead as a joyful “honeymoon phase.”
As public curiosity continues to grow, Xavier Trudeau’s candid remarks provide a rare and personal insight into how the relationship is unfolding behind the scenes.
