The pair has been the subject of global media attention since they were first spotted together in Montreal in July 2025. They confirmed their romance on Instagram in December 2025 and have since been seen at several major events together, including the World Economic Forum in Davos and the Coachella Music Festival.
As the 2026 FIFA World Cup approaches—a tournament where Perry is expected to be a major cultural figure—her presence in Canada has become increasingly common, often leading to sightings at upscale Montreal restaurants and public events alongside Trudeau.
