- Many praised Perry’s happiness and the couple’s chemistry.
- Others turned to lighthearted quips, calling them a modern “royal” pairing for Canada.
How the Tokyo trip made their relationship public
Perry and Trudeau’s Instagram reveal came during the singer’s Lifetimes Tour stop in Tokyo. She shared multiple moments from the visit, including a selfie of the two and a clip of a sushi dinner.
These Japan posts followed an earlier public appearance in Tokyo where the couple met with former Japanese prime minister Fumio Kishida. Kishida shared a photo of the lunch and praised the continuity of warm ties between Japan and Canada. He noted his past work with Canadian leaders and expressed pleasure that the friendship endures.

The duo were first linked in July 2025. They were photographed having dinner in Montreal, and Trudeau later attended one of Perry’s Lifetimes Tour shows in that city.
At the time, an industry source told outlets the evening looked like a date, though the pair were keeping things casual. In October 2025, the couple was seen leaving a club hand in hand, marking another public milestone in their courtship.
