Katy Perry has shared a rare, direct look at her relationship with Justin Trudeau. On January 7, 2026, she posted an Instagram carousel titled “Holidaze,” and it included affectionate vacation photos with the former Canadian prime minister, most notably a sunset shot where she embraces him on the cheek.

What Katy Perry posted
The “Holidaze” carousel is a mix of holiday and travel moments, but the images drawing the most attention are the ones featuring Trudeau. Multiple outlets highlighted a photo of Trudeau in the water and the cheek-kiss photo taken against a beach sunset.
The photo that made it feel like a relationship confirmation
The cheek-kiss image is why this story moved beyond casual “spotted together” chatter. It is clearly affectionate and framed like a couple’s vacation memory, not a formal appearance or staged photo call.
The getaway details people noticed
A few details in the post fueled the “couple’s getaway” framing. Some coverage pointed to a close-up of Perry wearing a gold maple leaf necklace, widely interpreted as a nod to Trudeau’s Canadian roots.
How does this fit into their public timeline
Perry and Trudeau were first linked publicly in late July 2025 after they were seen having dinner together in Montreal, which was widely reported at the time.
Later, entertainment coverage continued to track the relationship, including earlier public photos that suggested the connection had become more serious.
What is confirmed, and what is still not official
What is confirmed is the post itself and what it shows: Perry shared multiple images with Trudeau, including an affectionate cheek-kiss photo during a beach vacation setting.
What is not confirmed is any formal relationship label from either of them in a statement or interview tied to this post. The “romance” conclusion is coming from the content of the photos and how reputable outlets have described them.
