Katy Perry shares loved-up photos with Justin Trudeau amid pregnancy chatter
Katy Perry used an Instagram post on Feb. 10 (ET) to share fresh images of herself and former Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau, renewing public attention on the pair as social-media claims about a pregnancy circulate without confirmation.
Katy Perry posts new photos
The Feb. 10 (ET) Instagram carousel included two photos of Perry and Trudeau appearing to enjoy winter activities together. One image is a helmeted selfie on a snowy mountaintop; another shows the pair at a hot pot dinner. The post was captioned with a heart-and-revolution line. The carousel also contained what appears to be instructions for solving a Rubik's Cube printed on stationery associated with the Office of the Prime Minister of Canada.
Viral pregnancy claim lacks confirmation
A social-media post claiming the two are expecting a child drew widespread attention and had about 1. 7 million views at the time it circulated. There has been no announcement from either party's camp, and no independent reporting has confirmed the claim. A fact-check found no official confirmation and noted a January tabloid piece that cited unnamed insiders saying the couple had discussed having a child; that tabloid detail was not corroborated elsewhere. Similar unverified claims have appeared previously, including an October post that used an AI-generated image.
Relationship timeline and reactions
The couple first became publicly linked in the summer and were seen together in Montreal; Trudeau was later seen singing along at a Perry concert in that city. They made their relationship publicly official on social media in December, sharing moments from time spent together. Trudeau served as prime minister beginning in 2015 and announced his resignation amid political pressure in January 2025. He and his wife announced their separation in August 2023 and share three children from an 18-year marriage. Perry and her former partner announced their split in July after nine years together; they share a five-year-old daughter.
Public scrutiny and possible next steps
The new photos are likely to fuel further social-media discussion given the couple's high profiles and prior tabloid attention. If no official statement about the pregnancy appears, unverified posts and speculation are likely to continue. Conversely, any clear announcement from either party would shift the conversation from rumor to confirmed fact. At this stage, public records and official statements remain the key indicators that would substantively change what is known.
- Key takeaways: new Instagram photos reinforce the couple's public relationship; the pregnancy claim remains unverified; official confirmation is absent.
