On July 6, 2025, Katy Perry had dinner with Justin Trudeau in Montreal. They ate lobster and drank cocktails at Le Violon d’Ingres, a well-known restaurant. TMZ got video of the pair laughing and leaning close to talk during the meal.
Security watched nearby from mirrored glass. The dinner happened while Katy was on her Lifetime Tour. Since both she and Trudeau had ended long relationships within the last two years, their outing caused a stir across social media and news outlets.

Just two days earlier, on July 4, 2025, Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom announced their breakup. They said they had ended their relationship of nine years and would now focus on raising their 4-year-old daughter, Daisy Dove Bloom.
They shared a statement confirming their separation but added that they would still appear as a family unit. Fans were surprised by the sudden news, especially since there had been no public signs of major problems leading up to the July 4 post.

Like Katy, Justin Trudeau had recently experienced a breakup. On August 2, 2023, he announced that he and Sophie Grégoire Trudeau were separating after 18 years of marriage. They share three children: Xavier, 16; Ella-Grace, 15; and Hadrien, 10.
Trudeau was still Prime Minister when the announcement was made. He became only the second Canadian leader to separate while in office, following his father, Pierre Trudeau’s separation from Margaret Trudeau in 1977 and divorce in 1984.

Katy’s dinner with Trudeau happened during a stop on her Lifetime Tour. In July 2025, she was performing across Canada with dates in Ottawa, Montreal, Quebec City, and Toronto. Montreal was her second Canadian city on the schedule.
She was expected to travel to New York afterward. Trudeau’s attendance at any of the concerts was never confirmed. The dinner location was near the Bell Centre, where Katy performed earlier that evening for over 21,000 fans.

Before her tour, Katy had been with Orlando Bloom since January 2016. They met at a Golden Globes afterparty and became a couple shortly after. By February 2017, they had already taken a brief break.
They reunited in early 2018 and got engaged on February 14, 2019. Orlando proposed with a pink diamond flower-shaped ring. Their relationship lasted nearly a decade before the split was announced in July 2025.

From their Valentine’s Day engagement in 2019 to the July 2025 breakup, Katy and Orlando were engaged for six years and five months. Despite their long engagement, they never got married.
They had postponed their wedding in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and never rescheduled. The delay, along with work and personal stress, added pressure to the relationship over the years.

In May 2025, Katy launched her Lifetime Tour, which would cover more than 60 cities worldwide. The tour meant long periods of travel, and she was away from home for weeks.
Friends noticed she and Orlando were growing distant. A source told Us Weekly in June 2025 that “they’ve been living separate lives” and the tour only deepened the emotional gap that had been forming since early spring.

People magazine reported that Katy and Orlando had been experiencing “emotional and psychological stress” in 2025. They were both under pressure from their careers and personal goals.
The couple tried couples counseling earlier that year. Despite their efforts, sources close to them said the problems became “irreconcilable.” Their breakup message on July 4, 2025, was described as “planned and peaceful.”

In 2020, Katy spoke about her 2017 breakup with Orlando. She revealed that the split caused her deep emotional pain. Even though her 2017 single “Witness” hit number one, she said she “crashed.”
She admitted in an interview that she felt hopeless at the time. The breakup nearly broke her spirit until they reconciled in 2018. Their daughter, born in 2020, gave her “a whole new sense of purpose.”

Katy gave birth to Daisy Dove Bloom on August 26, 2020. The couple announced her arrival with help from UNICEF, the charity they support.
Daisy’s birth during the pandemic was a turning point in their relationship. For the next three years, they focused on parenting. But by mid-2024, sources said their romantic connection had started to fade.

When Katy and Orlando announced their breakup on July 4, 2025, they said their main focus would now be co-parenting Daisy, who had just turned four in August 2024.
They asked for privacy and said they would continue “to show up as a family” for their daughter. The couple emphasized mutual respect and love in their message, which was posted to both their Instagram accounts.

Before the July dinner with Katy, Justin Trudeau announced in April 2025 that he would step down after leading Canada for 10 years. His resignation became effective in June 2025.
His exit from politics came less than two years after his August 2023 separation from Sophie. Some political analysts called the timing “deeply personal,” noting that both professional and private shifts influenced his decision.

Despite her July 2025 breakup, Katy Perry kept performing. She played sold-out shows in Ottawa on July 3, Montreal on July 6, and Quebec City on July 8.
Her Lifetime Tour included 15 North American cities by that point. Fans praised her energy on stage, noting that she made no mention of the breakup publicly. The Montreal dinner with Trudeau came hours after the Bell Centre concert.

In March 2025, Orlando Bloom appeared on a podcast and discussed parenting. He said raising Daisy taught him to be “less reactive and more reflective.” He credited the Hoffman Process, a week-long retreat, for helping him grow.
He also mentioned adjusting his behavior after struggles in past relationships. Bloom said his goal was to “create a space where his children could express themselves freely.” His son Flynn, now 13, was born in 2011 with ex-wife Miranda Kerr.

On July 5, 2025, one day after the breakup, Orlando posted a photo of himself walking alone in Malibu. The caption read “Sometimes you gotta go inward.”
Though he didn’t name Katy, fans believed it reflected his feelings after the split. He later posted a poem about rebirth and letting go, prompting thousands of comments. Meanwhile, Katy stayed silent on social media.
Katy Perry’s Lifetimes tour launched in April and faced backlash over robotic choreography and low-effort visuals. Catch the reaction in Why did Katy Perry’s Lifetimes Tour face backlash?

As of July 31, 2025, neither Katy Perry nor Justin Trudeau has commented on the July 6 dinner. The only known facts come from the 49-second TMZ video filmed outside Le Violon d’Ingres.
The video shows Perry arriving at 8:12 PM and leaving around 10:30 PM. Trudeau wore a navy jacket and smiled as they exited separately. While rumors continue, there is still no confirmed reason for the dinner.
Katy Perry returns to the UK this October for the first tour there since 2018. See the full details in Katy Perry’s U.K. tour returns after 7 years.
