Overview

• PEOPLE cites a Canadian political source who says the pair are "quite taken" with each other and share a friend-and-intellectual bond alongside strong attraction.
• The source says they have stayed in touch since mid-summer but have spent little time together due to her touring schedule and family obligations on both sides.
• A separate PEOPLE source says Trudeau flew to California during a tour break, and photos published show the two kissing on a yacht off Santa Barbara in late September.
• Neither Perry nor Trudeau has commented publicly on the relationship, and representatives did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
• Recent moments sustaining interest include Perry’s coy reply to a fan at her London show and July sightings in Montreal, when Trudeau also attended her concert.
