Kishida wrote in his caption in Japanese: “Former Canadian Prime Minister @JustinTrudeau visited Japan with his partner and joined my wife and me for lunch.
“During his time as Prime Minister, we met multiple times as fellow leaders, when I visited Canada, we worked together to strengthen bilateral relations, including formulating the ‘Japan-Canada Action Plan’, sweating it out side by side. I am delighted that we continue to maintain this friendship in this way.”
Trudeau had expressed similar thoughts as he reposted Kishida’s message.
The 53-year-old politician wrote: “Katy and I were so glad to have the chance to sit down with you and Yuko. Thank you, Fumio, for your friendship and your continued commitment to both the international rules-based order and to a better future for everyone.”
Perry and Trudeau are thought to have started their romance in recent months and the pop star is said to be having “a lot of fun” with the former Canadian PM.
A source told People: “Justin keeps making a big effort to see her and she’s excited about it.”
The Roar hitmaker split from Hollywood star Orlando Bloom earlier this year. Trudeau separated from his wife, Sophie Grégoire, in 2023.
The insider said: “It’s exactly what she needs right now.”
Perry had seemingly confirmed her romance with Trudeau at a concert in Prague in October after spotting a sign from a fan asking her to marry him.
In a video shared on TikTok, Perry could be heard telling the crowd: “This guy is trying to get me to marry him and he has a ring in his hand.
“No! I am dating someone else for crying out f****** loud.”
