Former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau used his Halloween costume as a subtle but unmistakable confirmation of his recent romance with pop star Katy Perry. Trudeau shared a photo on Instagram dressed as the “Left Shark,” directly referencing the viral background dancer from Perry’s iconic 2015 Super Bowl Halftime Show performance.

The couple’s relationship began quietly in July with a first date in Montreal. They made their official public debut on October 25th in Paris, where they attended a cabaret show to mark Perry’s 41st birthday. This budding relationship follows recent high-profile separations for both individuals; Trudeau separated from his wife, Sophie Grégoire, in 2023, while Perry and Orlando Bloom split over the past summer.

Sources indicate that despite their demanding international schedules, the two share a “really strong connection,” with Trudeau making a significant effort to meet Perry where she is, often joining her on her current tour. Insiders report that Trudeau is now a “much happier person,” noting that the stresses from his recent political upheavals and domestic separation have “greatly diminished” since dating Perry. Trudeau is described as being “in awe of her talent” and impressed by her intelligence, outspokenness, and grasp of important issues.

On Perry’s side, she reportedly did not expect to move on so quickly but finds that Trudeau “checks all the boxes,” citing his charm, respect, and great sense of humor. Sources added that Perry is flattered by Trudeau’s clear commitment and his eagerness to spend time with her, calling the relationship a “surprising life twist” that finds her “in a great place.”
