Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau spotted kissing on yacht in California, confirming romance rumors

Katy Perry and former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau were photographed displaying affection aboard Perry's yacht off the coast of Santa Barbara, California, according to The Mail on Sunday, October 6.

The images show Perry and Trudeau kissing and embracing on the upper deck of the 24-meter vessel, named Caravelle. Tourists on a nearby whale-watching boat captured the photographs as they passed by the yacht during their excursion.

Speculation about a relationship between Perry and Trudeau began in July when the pair were observed dining at Le Violon restaurant in Montreal. The sighting marked the first public appearance that sparked romance rumors between the singer and the former political leader.
