Russell Brand slams ex‑wife Katy Perry’s relationship with Justin Trudeau
Comedian and actor Russell Brand has publicly criticised his ex‑wife, singer Katy Perry, over her reported relationship with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, stirring fresh headlines and drawing reactions across social media. Brand’s comments came in a series of statements and posts in which he described the situation as surprising and questioned the dynamics of the reported pairing, expressing strong personal views about the high‑profile connection.
In his remarks, Brand suggested that the public attention around the relationship reflects broader issues in celebrity culture and political life. He did not spare criticism of both Perry and Trudeau, stating that their union underscores what he described as an odd blend of entertainment and politics. Brand’s comments included pointed remarks about images from social media that show Perry interacting with Trudeau at public events and on trips, which have been widely shared and discussed online.
Brand’s critique has drawn mixed responses. Some of his followers backed his right to express his perspective, while others described his comments as overly dramatic or unnecessary. Supporters of Perry and Trudeau responded by defending their right to private relationships and stating that personal lives should remain separate from public debate.
Katy Perry married Russell Brand in 2010 and the couple divorced in 2012. Since then, Perry has dated other public figures and maintained a successful music career. Her reported relationship with Justin Trudeau has become a topic of global media interest, combining celebrity news with political curiosity due to Trudeau’s prominent role as Canada’s Prime Minister. Neither Perry nor Trudeau has directly responded to Brand’s recent statements.
Observers say Brand’s remarks reflect his often outspoken nature and tendency to blend cultural commentary with personal opinion. The episode has added a personal dimension to the ongoing media coverage of Perry and Trudeau’s relationship, which continues to attract public attention.
