Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau made their relationship more public than usual this weekend, sharing intimate moments from their date night at the 2026 Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival in Indio, California.
The 41-year-old pop star posted several photographs to Instagram on Sunday, April 11, documenting their Saturday evening at the renowned music festival. The caption read, "Heat checkin' these chickens," accompanying images that showed the couple enjoying festival food together and holding hands while walking through the festival grounds.
Perry opted for casual festival attire, wearing a white T-shirt with coordinating shorts and a black hoodie tied around her waist. Trudeau, 54, dressed similarly in a white T-shirt and blue jeans, accessorizing with a backwards-facing Montreal Alouettes baseball cap that caught the attention of the Canadian football team's official social media account.
"Love the 🏈 choice @justinpjtrudeau," the Montreal Alouettes commented on Perry's post. "We have to get you some merch too @katyperry 😉."
The couple also attended Justin Bieber's headlining performance on the main stage Saturday night, where the artist performed alongside his throwback music videos via YouTube. Perry shared social media footage from the set, joking, "Thank God he has Premium. I don't wanna see no ads."
Perry and Trudeau have maintained a notably private relationship since they began dating in summer 2025. A source told Us Weekly in September 2025 that the pair "have decided to be much more private about [their relationship]" and are "very interested in each other."
The relationship has continued to develop over recent months. The couple traveled to Paris in October 2025 to celebrate Perry's 41st birthday, with insiders reporting that Perry is "really into it" and "very happy." According to sources, Perry has been intentionally keeping the relationship low-key, with the couple spending significant private time together.
Perry entered this relationship following the end of her near-decade-long engagement to Orlando Bloom. The 41-year-old singer and Bloom, 49, now coparent their 5-year-old daughter, Daisy. Trudeau was previously married to Sophie Grégoire Trudeau for 18 years before their separation in 2023. The former couple shares three children together.
The relationship has progressed to the point where Perry has developed connections with Trudeau's children. Xavier, Trudeau's oldest son, recently discussed Perry on the "Can't Be Censored" podcast earlier this month, revealing that she provides guidance on his budding music career.
"When I'm really happy with a song, [I] send it [to her]," Xavier said. "She's always happy to give me advice or tell me what I should change. She's super nice. She's super down to earth. She's great. I think that my dad's happy so that's important."
The Coachella appearance marks one of the most public displays of affection from the couple since they began their relationship, offering fans and observers a rare window into their romance as it continues to develop.
