Katy Perry, Justin Trudeau spark romance rumours with Montreal stroll, dinner and concert moments
While fans buzzed with speculation, what unfolded in the city's charming corners painted more of a picture of new beginnings than a dramatic affair.
On July 28, during a break in her Lifetimes Tour, Perry was spotted in Montreal enjoying a relaxed dinner with none other than Trudeau.
The two public figures — both newly single — were photographed spending around 90 minutes walking through Mount Royal Park, accompanied by a small dog, before heading for an intimate dinner at Le Violon restaurant.
The encounter came shortly after Perry, 40, confirmed her split from longtime partner Orlando Bloom. The couple, who dated on and off for nearly nine years and share a five-year-old daughter, called off their engagement in early July.
Trudeau, 53, finalised his divorce from Sophie Grégoire Trudeau in 2023 after 18 years of marriage, with whom he shares three children.

Though their night out immediately stirred romance rumours online, what actually unfolded looked more like two individuals easing into new chapters in life rather than a whirlwind relationship.
According to TMZ, the pair's meal was a culinary spread that included lobster, tuna and lamb — with Trudeau graciously picking up the bill. The evening was not just about food and conversation, though.
A representative from Le Violon described the duo's demeanour as gracious and heartfelt.
'They were super kind and friendly to the staff and it was an absolute pleasure to have them at the restaurant,' the restaurant's rep said, adding that the duo even took the time to meet Chef Danny Smiles and personally thank the kitchen team after the meal.
The evening was kept low-key yet secure, with a bodyguard stationed discreetly at the bar throughout. After dinner, Trudeau was seen dropping Perry off at Montreal's Ritz-Carlton hotel, where the two chatted casually outside, unfazed by bystanders or cameras.
Adding fuel to fan theories, Trudeau was later spotted attending Perry's Montreal concert on July 30 at the sold-out Bell Centre. Wearing a simple black t-shirt, he smiled from the crowd as she performed hit after hit, from Firework to Thinking of You.
Despite the rumours, there were no overt displays of affection during their outings. Instead, their interactions spoke more of comfort and mutual respect.
Whether it was just a friendly night out or the start of something more personal, both Perry and Trudeau seemed to be savouring the simplicity of shared moments — perhaps a welcome change after years in the public eye under constant scrutiny.
