The two reportedly met at a social or political event, and from there, things progressed quickly. Over the summer, photos and sightings made people wonder if the spark had already faded, especially as they seemed to be seen less together. But then, a candid photo of the couple sharing a passionate moment on a yacht went viral, reigniting belief in their romance. A few months later, the confirmation finally arrived—through their own words rather than someone else’s guesses.
Against that backdrop, attention also turned to how this high‑profile relationship was affecting the people closest to Justin, particularly his children. For the unversed, Justin has three children with his ex-wife Sophie Grégoire Trudeau. One of his sons, Xavier Trudeau (often called Xav), recently opened up about his bond with Katy Perry— and it’s one of the gentler, more human corners of the entire story.
