Published: Apr 17 2026

Justin Trudeau, the former Prime Minister of Canada, is currently facing an unprecedented challenge in his love life. The situation involves allegations made by Ruby Rose against his significant other, Katy Perry. Celebrity news reporter Rob Shuter has received information from a source who admits to being "fuming" over the matter.

According to the report, "Trudeau doesn't believe the accusations — not for a second. He thinks it's unfair and deeply damaging." There are also reports that some in Perry's inner circle are rattled, but Trudeau is standing firm. The insider reveals that he has decided not to question her but will defend her "privately — completely." Therefore, "you won't see him doing interviews about this," the insider clarifies. "He believes staying quiet is the smartest move right now."

However, that doesn't mean he's not trying to make those around them understand. According to the source, he's telling friends that "this doesn't line up with the woman he knows. To him, it simply doesn't add up." All in all, when it comes to their bond and relationship, "this is a huge test, and he's choosing loyalty."

Moreover, at the same time, "he understands how serious this is. But his instinct is to protect her, not escalate things publicly. He's all in — just very, very quiet about it."

For those who are still unaware of the allegation, according to TMZ, "the incident occurred at a licensed premises in the Central Business District." Rose also came forward herself on social media and claimed that Perry "rubbed her disgusting v*** on my face" during their night out in a nightclub in Australia, only stopping once she was near vomiting.

However, Perry has since denied all of this through her representative, who spoke to the same outlet to reveal that "the allegations being circulated on social media by Ruby Rose about Katy Perry are not only categorically false, they are dangerous reckless lies." The representative further stated that "Ms. Rose has a well-documented history of making serious public allegations on social media against various individuals, claims that have repeatedly been denied by those named."
