Pop star Katy Perry and ex-Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau have again fueled dating rumors after they were seen kissing on Perry’s private yacht in Santa Barbara, California. The pictures, which were released by The Daily Mail, capture the pair soaking up the sun on the high seas as speculation surrounding their supposed romance reached new levels.
Perry, who was wearing a black swimsuit, was also hugging a bare-chested Trudeau, who sported relaxing denim jeans. The two appeared laid-back and affectionate as they reclined on deck. A witness informed the publication, “She pulled up next to a little government whale-watching boat, then they began kissing. I didn’t know they were together until I saw the tattoo on his arm — that’s when I knew he was Justin Trudeau.”
Though neither Perry nor Trudeau has publicly confirmed the romance, this is not their first such rumor. They first began circulating in July when the pair was seen dining out together in Montreal. Trudeau went on to attend Perry’s tour stop for Lifetimes in Canada, further fueling gossip.
