Katy Perry is newly single and spending time with another recently single public figure: former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. The pair spent Monday together in Montreal and enjoyed a three-spot outing.
News first broke of their dinner. They were filmed eating at Le Violon in Montreal. In footage obtained by TMZ, Perry and Trudeau can be seen chatting, with the singer looking attentively at Trudeau.
Their day didn’t start or end there, however. TMZ later obtained photos of Trudeau smiling alongside Perry during a walk in Montreal’s Mount Royal Park. They were there an hour and a half before dinner.

After their meal, they had drinks on the terrace of Taverne Atlantic.
Shortly after TMZ published the dinner video, the outlet ran an interview with Le Violon’s co-owner and co-executive chef, Danny Smiles, who served them. Smiles said Perry and Trudeau didn’t show any PDA, and 'he didn’t get any dating vibes from Katy and Justin...just two friends enjoying a meal.'
Perry and Trudeau enjoyed a series of courses from the chef’s tasting menu, including lobster, tuna, lamb gnocchi, and beef tartare, according to TMZ. The meal was a few hours long, and Trudeau covered the bill. Smiles called them the 'perfect guests—super chill, extremely nice to the staff.'
Perry and her ex Orlando Bloom announced their separation on July 3 after over seven years together. In a joint statement to People, they said, 'Due to the abundance of recent interest and conversation surrounding Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry’s relationship, representatives have confirmed that Orlando and Katy have been shifting their relationship over the past many months to focus on co-parenting [their daughter, 4-year-old Daisy]. They will continue to be seen together as a family, as their shared priority is—and always will be—raising their daughter with love, stability, and mutual respect.'
Trudeau and his ex Sophie Grégorie separated in 2023 after 18 years of marriage. In a statement to Instagram, Trudeau wrote, 'Hi everyone, Sophie and I would like to share the fact that after many meaningful and difficult conversation, we have made the decision to separate. As always, we remain a close family with deep love and respect for each other and for everything we have built and will continue to build. For the well-being of our children, we ask that you respect our and their privacy. Thank you.'
