• Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom called off their engagement after nine years together in July 2025.
  • The “California Gurls” sparked dating rumors with former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau after they were spotted at dinner that same month.
  • Six months later, sources have revealed what Katy finds “incredibly appealing” about her connection with Justin.

This is not a drill: Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau have been dating for nearly six months (and recently went Instagram photo dump official, NBD). According to sources, the pair is still going strong in our good year 2026, as Katy finds him “irresistible” for a specific reason.

Sources close to Katy told OK! Magazine that the “main source of his appeal” for the singer lies in his “public restraint.”

“What really draws Katy in is Justin’s calm, deliberate nature and his lack of interest in fame,” they explained, adding, “He is not seeking attention, which feels refreshing after relationships with people who were far more focused on the spotlight.”

The insider also dished that Katy finds conversations with the politician “energizing.”

“She’s told people close to her that he truly listens, pushes her to think differently, and relates to her as an equal,” the source shared. “They can spend hours talking about everything from politics and culture to raising children and finding meaning. She feels mentally stimulated again, which she finds incredibly appealing.”

ICYMI, the “Hot ’n Cold” hitmaker first sparked romance rumors with the former Canadian Prime Minister in July 2025 when they were spotted on a dinner date in Montreal. That same month, she and her ex, Orlando Bloom, announced that they called off their engagement after nine years together.

“Orlando and Katy have been shifting their relationship over the past many months to focus on coparenting. They will continue to be seen together as a family, as their shared priority is — and always will be — raising their daughter with love, stability and mutual respect,” a rep for the couple said in a statement at the time, per Us Weekly.

Anyway, it seems like time flies when you’re a global pop icon and the Japanese Prime Minister randomly hard-launches your relationship by accident.
